Convert MPP file to PDF using Aspose.Tasks for Java - Application hangs during conversion

#1

While attempting to open an MPP file in Tasks version 19.5 the process appears to hang indefinably on the save method:

PdfSaveOptions saveOptions = new PdfSaveOptions();
saveOptions.setFitContent(true);
doc.save(out, saveOptions);

By removing the setFitContent from the options it works with more files, however is still causes an issue for some files.

Is the some factor that determine this, or is there a way to stop the save to avoid issues?

You should be able to reproduce the issue with:

Project doc = new Project(new FileInputStream(new File("test.mpp"))), new LoadOptions());
PdfSaveOptions saveOps = new PdfSaveOptions();
saveOps.setFitContent(true);
doc.save(new FileOutputStream(new File("tmp.pdf"), saveOps);
