Hello
Words Project saved to PDF generates corrupted file.

tested on:

  • windows 10, Foxit Reader 9.2.0.9297, Aspose Words 18.7 Java
  • OSX 10.13.6, Foxit Reader 2.4.1.0609, Aspose Words 18.7 Java

Works good - created PDF is ok

Project project = new Project();
project.getRootTask().getChildren().add("Summary");

project.save("./project.pdf", SaveFileFormat.PDF);

Works bad - created PDF is corrupted

Project project = new Project();
Task task = project.getRootTask().getChildren().add("Summary");
Task subtask = task.getChildren().add("Subtask with comma");

project.save("./project.pdf", SaveFileFormat.PDF);

We have tested the code sample provided and it is working fine. Please have a look on the generated PDF saved_in_pdf.pdf (98.7 KB) and sample code given below:

Project project = new Project();
Task task = project.getRootTask().getChildren().add("Summary");
Task subtask = task.getChildren().add("Subtask with comma");

project.save("D:\\" + "saved_in_pdf1.pdf", SaveFileFormat.PDF);

Google Chrome open file attached by you correctly, Foxit Reader crushes.

Other readers are able to open so I think that Foxit Reader’s got a bug.
