Spladder viz issue: PDF dimensions out of allowed range

[balbachs]

• spladder version: 3.0.2
• Python version: 3.9.5
• Operating System: CentOS 7

Description

I am trying to visualize splicing using the spladder viz command. However, I only get a white PDF. I have checked that there is an alternative splicing event in the spladder output. When I open the PDF, Adobe Reader tells me that "The dimensions of this page are outside the allowed range of values. Certain page content may not be displayed." (translated from German).

I am suspecting that on the HPC system I am using, the PDF renderer might yield incorrect results. Are there certain requirements to generate PDF output?
Of note, PNG output doesn't work either.

Thank you very much!
