Internal server error

On the heroku log it shows TypeError: The view function did not return a valid response. The return type must be a string, dict, tuple, Response instance, or WSGI callable, but it was a Api2PdfResponse.

PDF Signature Not Found

Hi, been trying to merge some links into one pdf and I'm using the python sdk.

def convert_and_merge_pdf(links):
    print("About to convert")
    a2p_client = Api2Pdf('xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxx')
    options = {
        'pageSize': 'A4'
    }
    merge_result = a2p_client.merge(links)
    print(merge_result)
    return merge_result

this functions take a list of url for pdf conversion and merging but i get this error

Thanks for your help

Issue when trying to download a file (typo)

When I generate a PDF or image using:

image_api_response = a2p_client.Chrome.html_to_image(html, file_name=image_filename)
pdf_api_response = a2p_client.Chrome.html_to_pdf(html,file_name=pdf_filename,)

To download the file I try to use image_api_response.download_pdf() or pdf_api_response.download_pdf() I get the following error:

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/api2pdf/api2pdf.py", line 158, in download_pdf
    if self.result['success']:

The immediate fix:

api2pdf.python/api2pdf/api2pdf.py

Line 158 in 05ea971

if self.result['success']:

should reference Success not success

I also recommend a change in this method's name since it isn't only used to download images. Perhaps download_file.

Host a Lambda Layer

I think it could be helpful to provide a "Layer version ARN" for people that are using lambda.

Makes it easy to attach to a project without having to maintain a lambda layer.

Header and footer not displayed in generated pdf

Hi, I'm currently working on implementing a header and footer in my document, but when calling the HeadlessChrome api with the following code, I get back a PDF with no header or footer.

        margin_x = 0.75
        chrome_options = {
            "marginLeft": margin_x,
            "marginRight": margin_x,
            "marginTop": margin_x,
            "marginBottom": margin_x,
            "displayHeaderFooter": True,
            "headerTemplate": "<span>TestHeader</span>",
            "footerTemplate": "<span>TestFooter</span>",
        }
        response = client.HeadlessChrome.convert_from_html(content, **chrome_options)

I've gone over the docs and it looks like everything is correct here. Am I missing something here?

Add Support For Encrypting

Just tried this tool and its awesome, wondering if there would be support for pdf encryption.

Spaces in a2p_client.HeadlessChrome.convert_from_html breaks filename

When calling:

from api2pdf import Api2Pdf
a2p_client = Api2Pdf('token')
html = "<html code>"
res = a2p_client.HeadlessChrome.convert_from_html(html, file_name='Devis FOO.pdf')

The returned PDF carries as name all characters prior to the first space in file_name. Here, it is:

Devis

without the end of the file_name nor the PDF file extension.

Is this a known bug ?
