ReactPDF.renderToStream Not working when files are larger than 13MB

[airidasj]

Describe the bug
RenderToStream / renderToString / renderToString does not Work with bigger fileSize.

To Reproduce
In our case we make an invoice for products and we include more images of the product (4) to a single pdf page. When we render 2-3 products, pdf renders with no issues.

When we add 4-10 products, and the image files increase PDF file size, the renderToStream function stops, and never produces a result.

We can render the pdf on the browser successfully, no matter the filezsize. Doesnt work in Node API.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: [e.g. MacOS M1]
• Trying to render in Backend (Node Js server environment)
• React-pdf version [e.g. v3.0.0]

The function does not produce any errors. It just hangs with no output.

Yes, I am facing the same issue with generating pdf with lots of images

I am using Node v14.17.5 on Windows

Can you try running on a Docker container with platform platform=linux/amd64 ?

[airidasj]

Tested on platform=linux/amd64.

Works fine on Linux.

Seems to be an issue on Apple M1 (and Windows, regarding previous comment).

@airidasj I think it's may be due to some dependency is not supports M1 (arm64) yet. We got issues with node-canvas not working on M1.

How can I replicate this?

How can I replicate this?

Just need to render lots of images like 10-12 of 1MB size or more

I gave this a try here. Rendered way more than what you suggested. Final file is +100mb, and it works fine and rendered pretty fast. Error must be somewhere else in your document (for which I'll need a way to reproduce it). Maybe it's fixed in latest versions

PR has the document for a web app, but I tested rendering it with renderToStream locally
