Hi,
This is the sample code.

    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
    loadLicense();

    Document doc = new Document("C:\\a.docx");
    HandleDocumentWarnings callback = new HandleDocumentWarnings();
    com.aspose.words.PdfSaveOptions saveOptions = null;
    saveOptions = new com.aspose.words.PdfSaveOptions();

    OutlineOptions outlineOptions = saveOptions.getOutlineOptions();
    outlineOptions.setExpandedOutlineLevels(1);
    outlineOptions.setHeadingsOutlineLevels(1);
    doc.save("C:\\bookmark.pdf",saveOptions);
}

Attaching the PDF generated using Aspose.Words for Java 13.6.0.0 and the latest version.
Bookmarks are getting created in the 13.6 but not in the latest version.

Hi Tahir,
So is it a bug?
It should be able to recognize the headers and convert to bookmarks. Right?

Hi Tahir,
Any update?

Please answer this as well:
What is the correct behavior of Aspose Words? Should the header be a part of the final rendition? Is it incorrect , if it does not render the header as bookmark. But the problem is if you save it , using the office Save as, it wont recognize the headers in this specific case. I am confused as we want to know, what is the standard behavior of Aspose Words in this case. Were the earlier versions incorrect, to render the header into bookmark or the subsequent versions of the Aspose Words are incorrect as they don’t render the header into bookmark.

@AjeshEMC,

Thanks for your patience. It is to inform you that the issue which you are facing is actually not a bug in Aspose.Words. So, we have closed this issue (WORDSNET-16833) as ‘Not a Bug’.

The behavior of old version of Aspose.Words is incorrect. Please note that Aspose.Words mimics the behavior of MS Word. MS Word does not create bookmarks for headings inside table when document is converted to PDF.
