JavaScript error when trying to save plot

New here, please excuse if something is not formatted correctly. I’m running R 3.6.3 (via RStudio 1.2.5033) on a Windows 10 device (session info below).

I’m trying to save a plotly object as a pdf or svg file using orca with the below code:

dat <- as.data.frame(mtcars)
library(plotly)
plt <- plot_ly(dat) %>% 
  add_markers(x = ~wt, y = ~mpg, 
              marker = list(line = list(color = 'black', width = 0.5)))
orca(p = plt, file = 'orca test.pdf', format = 'pdf', height = 1080, width = 1920)

This throws an ‘Uncaught Exception’ error with JavaScript as shown below (redacted folder names do not have any forward slashes or spaces):

Orca appears to be installed properly when I check in command prompt:

Java Version:

Not sure what is causing this or how to resolve it. Ibeen having this error on Windows 10 for a while - the code ran fine on Windows 7 and is okay on MacOS High Sierra/Mojave. I reinstalled R, Rstudio and Java hoping it would fix this (read this on other forums) but to no avail.

I solved this problem by providing the target directory and file name separately.
