  2. Add an image, by embedding a relative file url eg. /assets/favicon-light.png

Image

  1. Is displayed correctly

Image

  1. But when exported, causes Cors error

Image Pdf

Why would you want to embed relative image URLs?

  • Future Tutorial Document needs it for example.
  • And maybe in some infrastructure you could have file serving on the same domain.

Ways to fix

No need for relative images to be proxied. No cors issue would occur. So if image url starts with a / - export the image directly, without routing through cors proxy.
