Exception "Out of Bond" when converting PPTX to PDF using Aspose.Slides for Java

Hello,

I am using Aspose.Slides v18.5. Presentation object creation fails for the attached PPTX file.

Attachment:
PPT.zip (208.8 KB)

It was working fine with Aspose.Slides v18.1. This is a breaking change in v18.5 and we need an immediate fix for this.

Following exception occurs while creating presentation object:

class com.aspose.slides.PptxReadException: -1 —> java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1
— End of inner exception stack trace —
com.aspose.slides.abl.do(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.slides.Presentation.if(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.slides.Presentation.do(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.slides.Presentation.do(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.slides.Presentation.do(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.slides.Presentation.(Unknown Source)

Can you please analyse this issue and provide a fix for this asap.

Thanks,
Neha

Hello,

This issue has been logged since 2 months and there has been no response on when it will be fixed.

This issue is a break in the last recent versions of aspose.slides (v18.5 onwards) and it was working fine in v18.1. Since it is a breaking change, it should be fixed on priority.

This issue is critical for us, so can you please look into this and let us know when can we expect a fix for this.
