Good morning

While updating the page layout of a .doc document (Word 97), Aspose throws an exception. Method: Aspose.Words.Document.UpdatePageLayout().
This is not the case if the document is first converted to a .docx format.

You can reproduce this issue with the following document:

Version of Aspose.Words: 21.7.0

Thanks for any help!
