Aspose.Words conversion : a bug?

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

Hi,

I’m facing a weird behaviour using Aspose.Words to convert a rtf file to pdf.

In the att. zip, in the pdf file, look in the margin of the gray block, entitled “renseignements” in the first page, you’ll see some thin red vertical dashes.

These dashes are not there in the source rtf file (also in the att. zip file).

How this can be explained please ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Nico,

Please use Document.AcceptAllRevisions method to workaround this issue. Hope this helps you.

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "S0001STM000000.rtf");
doc.AcceptAllRevisions();
doc.Save(MyDir + "Out.pdf");

Great, it fixes the problem.

Is it possible to know what’s going on ? does the rtf file is corrupted, obsolete ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Nico,

Thanks for your patience. It is to inform you that our product team has completed the work on this issue (WORDSNET-12503) and has come to a conclusion that this issue and the undesired behavior you’re observing is actually not a bug in Aspose.Words. So, we have closed this issue as ‘Not a Bug’.

There are two options to remove these vertical bars:

  1. Use RevisionOptions.ShowRevisionBars = false. This will hide revision bars.
  2. Use Document.AcceptAllRevisions. This will remove all revisions on the document and thus bars will not be displayed.
