Function convertDocument

Create and convert a document (e.g. HTML to PDF).
The conversion consists of multiple individual tasks to allow full flexibility when creating documents.

Example case: Create a PDF with dynamic content (PDF asset), append a static product datasheet and put a watermark on each page.

See also createPdfFromAssets for a simplified version to create a PDF.

Returns

URL to the generated cfgn file, if successful
