Hello @webkeonsanjeev 

Update your custom Invoice class to include the parent constructor call and ensure all dependencies are injected properly.

Correct the Custom Class

namespace Webkeon\Custompdf\Model\Order\Pdf;

use Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Pdf\Invoice as BaseInvoice;
use Magento\Framework\App\State;
use Magento\Framework\App\Filesystem\DirectoryList;
use Magento\Sales\Model\ResourceModel\Order\Invoice\CollectionFactory;
class Invoice extends BaseInvoice

{
    /**

     * Custom Invoice constructor.

     *

     * @param State $appState

     * @param \Magento\Framework\Filesystem $filesystem

     * @param DirectoryList $directoryList

     * @param CollectionFactory $invoiceCollectionFactory

     * @param \Magento\Store\Model\App\Emulation $appEmulation

     * @param \Magento\Framework\Translate\Inline\StateInterface $translateInline

     * @param \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Pdf\Config $pdfConfig

     * @param \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Pdf\Total\Factory $pdfTotalFactory

     * @param \Magento\Framework\Stdlib\DateTime\TimezoneInterface $localeDate

     * @param array $data

     */

    public function __construct(

        State $appState,

        \Magento\Framework\Filesystem $filesystem,

        DirectoryList $directoryList,

        CollectionFactory $invoiceCollectionFactory,

        \Magento\Store\Model\App\Emulation $appEmulation,

        \Magento\Framework\Translate\Inline\StateInterface $translateInline,

        \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Pdf\Config $pdfConfig,

        \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Pdf\Total\Factory $pdfTotalFactory,

        \Magento\Framework\Stdlib\DateTime\TimezoneInterface $localeDate,

        array $data = []

    ) {

        parent::__construct(

            $appState,

            $filesystem,

            $directoryList,

            $invoiceCollectionFactory,

            $appEmulation,

            $translateInline,

            $pdfConfig,

            $pdfTotalFactory,

            $localeDate,

            $data

        );

    }
    /**

     * Override the getPdf function

     * @param array $invoices

     * @return \Zend_Pdf

     */

    public function getPdf($invoices = [])

    {
        // Your custom logic here
        return parent::getPdf($invoices);
    }
}
