Docx to PDF Issue (Linked list is in invalid state exception)

Dear Aspose Team,

We have recently upgraded the aspose-total and aspose-words to version 24.5 from version 23.8. After the upgrade the library is throwing an exception while converting the word files to PDF. The exception states: “Linked list is in invalid state”

Please find attached, a sample file we faced this exception on, to this topic.

Thanks

It seems that you are encountering an exception stating “Linked list is in invalid state” after upgrading to Aspose.Words version 24.5 while converting Word files to PDF. This issue has been reported previously, and it was logged as a bug (WORDSNET-23439). The Aspose team acknowledged the problem and has worked on a fix.

To resolve this issue, I recommend the following steps:

  1. Check for Updates: Ensure that you are using the latest version of Aspose.Words. Sometimes, issues are resolved in subsequent releases, so it might be beneficial to check if a newer version than 24.5 is available.

  2. Revert to Previous Version: If the issue persists in the latest version, consider reverting to the previous version (23.8) where the problem did not occur, until a fix is officially released.

  3. Contact Support: If you continue to experience this issue, you may want to reach out to Aspose support directly with your specific document and the error details. They can provide more targeted assistance.

  4. Monitor the Issue: Keep an eye on the Aspose forums or the issue tracker for updates regarding the resolution of WORDSNET-23439.

If you have a sample document that consistently reproduces the issue, sharing it with the support team can help expedite the troubleshooting process.

For more information on the previous reports of this issue, you can refer to the related forum discussions.

@Saykat2010 The problem is not reproducible with the latest 25.2 version of Aspose.Words for Java. So please try using the latest version and let us know if the problem still persists on your side.
