Cell's width is changed after conversion from MHT to DOCX/PDF using .NET

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hi guys,
just facing simple issue with following code and attached document:

var document = new Aspose.Words.Document(@"c:\temp\test_cut.docx");
document.UpdateTableLayout(); // has no effect
document.Save(@"c:\temp\test.pdf", Aspose.Words.SaveFormat.Pdf);

When you open test_cut.docx in Word 2016, columns are correctly displayed.
Somehow 50/50 % width distribution.

BUT in produced PDF 1st column takes something like 90% of space.
Did i miss something?
Any idea?

Thanks and cheers!

There is no need to call Document.UpdateTableLayout method. Please use the latest version of Aspose.Words for .NET 19.9 to get the desired output. We have attached the output PDF with this post for your kind reference. 19.9.pdf (50.4 KB)

Hi guys,
it’s quite a long time…
Just checked with the newest Aspose.Words, but still the same result.
Why, please?

Hi @tahir.manzoor,
please, could you be more specific?
What is the problem with this issue?

Such table formatted content appears still more frequently these days.
And such result (attached) is quite badly accepted. :expressionless:

Your issues are related to missing features WORDSNET-832 (Make table layout as close to Word as possible) and WORDSNET-19252 (Document settings in AW model do not match MS Word on loading mhtml).

After the fix of these features, we will look into your issues. We will be sure to inform you via this forum thread as soon as your issues are resolved. We apologize for your inconvenience.
