Not Satisfied with PDF Download. PDF output Missing important portion of Article.

Recently I downloaded a PDF copy of the article Electrical connector , and it struck my eyes that an image present in the main article Electrical connector#Keying the 3 images of examples for keyed connectors, are absent in the PDF output. Though it is important part at the interior-portion of article. (I didn't checked, is there any text-portion missing. But I well-checked the 3 images are no-where in the PDF) .

I repeatedly downloaded >1 times, and every time the exactly-same, error-containing output obtained.

If there's any way to submit the PDF-file for further examination, I can send the file to Wikipedia. Please inform me

Now, I logically assume , this-kind of error can taking place every now-and then.

So please diagnose the error. It was a single Wiki page. But the same could occur in a Wikibook. if in 1 page there could occur 1 mistake, in a printed-book, >1 mistake can occur.

Gently drawing attention of Wikipedia and Wikimedia foundation to Re-start the management process in a near-future

If

The Book Creator software has been crippled since it was rebuilt in 2014, the management process is inactive, and no fixes are in sight.

Then

What to do?

Is there any way to re-start that management process?

Why the softwares could-not be updated? Does the experts (Who developes and curate data on Wikipedia) don't know the structure of the programs? is that possible? If it is not so, then, is there any sign of start of a management process in a near future?

I did-not meant to take it as a pressure. Please. Rather I friendly tried to gently draw attention on this topic to experts and Wikimedia foundation.

Thanks and all the best wishes. RIT RAJARSHI (talk) 15:19, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

There is a very simple way to re-start the management process - volunteer. Or at least, persuade someone else to. The Wikimedia Foundation do not currently see it as a priority for the limited resources they have available. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 18:55, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
