Aspose Document with Line Issue in Template We are facing merging issue with Aspose when document contains the shape line

We are facing merging issue with Aspose when document contains the shape line whereas it works fine with OpenXML . Attaching the corrected/Expected version (OpenXML Generated.docx) as well as the version generated with Aspose (Aspose Generated.docx). Also, the attachment is getting distorted.

@NIKHIL.AGGARWAL30.OPTUM.COM Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the problem on my side. I have used the following code for testing:

string[] docs = new string[] {
    @"C:\Temp\Attachment1.docx",
    @"C:\Temp\Attachment2.docx",
    @"C:\Temp\Attachment3.docx",
    @"C:\Temp\Attachment4.docx"
};

Document result = null;
foreach (string path in docs)
{
    Document doc = new Document(path);
    doc.FirstSection.PageSetup.SectionStart = SectionStart.NewPage;
    doc.FirstSection.HeadersFooters.LinkToPrevious(false);

    if (result == null)
        result = doc;
    else
        result.AppendDocument(doc, ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting);
}

// Reset size of empty headers/footers.
NodeCollection headersFooters = result.GetChildNodes(NodeType.HeaderFooter, true);
foreach (HeaderFooter hf in headersFooters)
{
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(hf.ToString(SaveFormat.Text).Trim()))
        hf.FirstParagraph.ParagraphBreakFont.Size = 0;
}

result.Save(@"C:\Temp\out.docx");

The same I have suggested in another your thread.

I have tried your given solution with below attachments, but it is not working as expected.
Kindly check attached “AsposeLetterIssue”

I have noticed first letter is merging with second letter also line issue still persists. Also find the code and attachments i tried with.

I have tried with ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting and ImportFormatMode.KeeyDifferentStyles.

Also find the Aspose generated letter
AsposeLetterIssue.docx (85.1 KB)

Refer below code.

var output = new AsposeWord.Document();                
// Remove all content from the destination document before appending.
output.RemoveAllChildren(); 
foreach (string fileName in files)
{
    var input = new AsposeWord.Document(fileName);
    input.FirstSection.PageSetup.SectionStart = SectionStart.NewPage;
    input.FirstSection.HeadersFooters.LinkToPrevious(false);
    // Append the source document to the end of the destination document.
    output.AppendDocument(input, AsposeWord.ImportFormatMode.KeepDifferentStyles);
}                 // Reset size of empty headers/footers.
NodeCollection headersFooters = output.GetChildNodes(NodeType.HeaderFooter, true);
foreach (HeaderFooter hf in headersFooters)
{
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(hf.ToString(SaveFormat.Text).Trim()))
        hf.FirstParagraph.ParagraphBreakFont.Size = 0;
}
output.Save(mergedFile);
return mergedFile;
