Aspose-pdf generates other header than Aspose-Word

Hello everybody,

we currently have the problem that saving as PDF sets headers incorrect in some constellations. If the same document is saved as a Word file, the header is set correctly. Here is a minimal example of what we use for testing (please adjust the paths in the code so that they can be found):

public class AsposeTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Document fails = new Document(new FileInputStream(new File(AsposeTest.class.getResource("/checkliste.doc").getPath())));
        Document template = new Document(new FileInputStream(new File(AsposeTest.class.getResource("/orgavision_schablone_original.docx").getPath())));

        replaceHeadersFooters(fails, template);
        File pdfResult = new File("./failed.pdf");
        File docxResult = new File("./worked.docx");

        SaveOptions docxSaveOptions = new OoxmlSaveOptions();
        docxSaveOptions.setSaveFormat(SaveFormat.DOCX);

        fails.save(new FileOutputStream(pdfResult), new PdfSaveOptions());
        fails.save(new FileOutputStream(docxResult), docxSaveOptions);
    }

    private static void replaceHeadersFooters(Document document, Document template) {
        final NodeImporter importer = new NodeImporter(template, document, ImportFormatMode.KEEP_SOURCE_FORMATTING);
        final HeaderFooterCollection templateCol = template.getFirstSection().getHeadersFooters();
        boolean firstSection = true;
        for (final Section section : document.getSections()) {
            final HeaderFooterCollection sectionCol = section.getHeadersFooters();
            for (int i = 0; i < templateCol.getCount(); i++) {
                final HeaderFooter templateHF = templateCol.get(i);
                final HeaderFooter sectionHF = sectionCol.getByHeaderFooterType(templateHF.getHeaderFooterType());
                if (sectionHF != null) {
                    sectionHF.remove();
                }
                if (firstSection) {
                    sectionCol.add((importer.importNode(templateHF, true)));
                }
            }
            firstSection = false;
        }
    }
}

It should look like worked.docx. failed.pdf is the wrong result.
I attached the template and the document.

We use the latest version of aspose-words (19.1) and aspose-pdf (18.11).

Can you tell us where the problem is?
If you need more information, just let me know.

Thank you and best regards
