Exception is thrown: Not a legal OleAut date

#1

Hello.
When I open a Word document (test1.docx), and try to save it as test1.doc or test1.pdf, it throws an exception: Not a legal OleAut date.
Here is my code.

Aspose.Words.Document doc = new Aspose.Words.Document(“test1.docx”);

doc.Save(“test1.doc”); // exception here
doc.Save(“test1.pdf”); // and here, too

When I test this document with Aspose.Words.NET version 18.11, no exception is thrown.
But from versions 18.12 to 19.03, I get this exception.

How can I upload this document here?

Thank you for your help in advance.
