Aspose generated PDF contains odd question mark characters

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

The attached word file seems to have a number of formatted images. When converting the .docx file to PDF, there are boxes with question marks right next to all the text.

We are running Aspose Words for.NET version 10.6

Hi Nick,

Thanks for your inquiry.

While using the latest version of Aspose.Words i.e. 10.7.0, I managed to reproduce this issue on my side. I have logged this issue in our bug tracking system. Your request has also been linked to the appropriate issue and you will be notified as soon as it is resolved. Sorry for inconvenience.

Best Regards,

Hi
Thank you for reporting this problem to us. There is some problem with rendering text in metafiles. So as a temporary workaround, you can simply render metafiles as raster images:

Document doc = new Document(@"Test001\1_New.docx");
PdfSaveOptions opt = new PdfSaveOptions();
opt.MetafileRenderingMode = MetafileRenderingMode.Bitmap;
doc.Save(@"Test001\out.pdf", opt);

Of course quality of the images will be affected in this case, however, the issue with missed glyphs is resolved.
Best regards,

The issues you have found earlier (filed as WORDSNET-5615) have been fixed in this .NET update and this Java update.
