Upgrading to 2.12.6.0 broke image display on Heroku

We upgraded to 2.12.6.0 and this caused images to be dropped from our PDFs. We use WickedPDF and both the standard image_tag and wicked_pdf_image_tag started rendering as empty image squares in the generated PDFs.

Rolling back to 2.12.5.0 resolved the issue for us.

Hi - this looks like a wkhtmltopdf issue - could you also open a ticket over there? https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/issues

Thanks!

Works still great for our Rails 7.0 app with Wicked PDF 2.6.3 on Heroku-22 (wkhtmltopdf-heroku 2.12.6.1.pre.jammy), for all common image formats (included with the image_tag helper) and even HTML canvas based graphics.

For the few SVG files we use, we had to inline them using the inline_svg gem for Rails.

Hi - in my case Rails 6 and wkhtmltopdf-heroku 2.12.6.1.pre.jammy, I had to use image_tag wicked_pdf_asset_base64("image.jpg") for pictures in assests/images.

hope this can help !

Confirmed that rolling back to 2.12.5.0 fixes broken images on Heroku-20.
