Hello Nathaniel,
I have followed the instructions and for me (Windows 11) it displays correctly.

The pdf page image should be located inside the qda project folder:

The error is saying - it cannot find this image. Can you check the pdf image page is in the images folder. Also on you mac, when coding a new pdf image, can you check the QC puts an pdf page image in the images folder in the project.

Correct display for me:
