Subsequent PdfTools instances yield wrong PDF output

The PdfTools and Converter need to behave as singletons in your AppDomain.

[kierenj]

Yes, it certainly seems so. But I'd have hoped that there would be an exception, rather than randomly-corrupted PDF output. If this is indeed a design restriction, could I suggest a static flag somewhere, such that subsequent calls to the constructors throw a helpful error message?

I have this problem too!

[mlynam]

Yeah I'm not a fan of opinionated service lifetimes. I haven't dug into the code here to find out why this limitation exists, but rather I've just discovered this is the case via my own usage.

Sadly, when trying to use singleton instances of a converter, and subsequent calls to Convert, DinkToPdf hangs: #62

Same problem for me even with singleton. Is there any solution or update? Thank you.

Same for me in october 2022
