Document file shrinks to less pages after converting from word file to pdf file

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

We are using Aspose.pdf.kit version 3.8.0.1.

We found that for some word document files, after we save them to pdf format, the pdf document shrinks to less pages comparing to the original word document.

I am attaching a sample file (“7pages.doc”) here. You can run the following code

Dim doc As Aspose.Words.Document = New Aspose.Words.Document("C:\\temp\\7pages.doc")
doc.Save("C:\\temp\\7pages.pdf", Aspose.Words.SaveFormat.Pdf)

The orginal “7pages.doc” has 7 pages, but the generated “7pages.pdf” only has 5 pages.

Any idea?

Hello,
Thank you for your request.
I managed to reproduce your problem on my side.
Once the cause of the problem is fixed, we will notify you immediately.
As a temporary solution you can use PageBreak for page layout.

License lic = new License();
lic.SetLicense("Aspose.Words.lic");
Document document = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(document);
builder.Writeln("Page1");
builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.PageBreak);
builder.Writeln("Page2");
document.Save("E:\\out.pdf", SaveFormat.Pdf);
