Exception when converting this document from word to pdf

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

The attached word document will trigger an exception when opened with Aspose word and saved to pdf format. This is the very simple code used:

Document theSourceFile = null;

theSourceFile = new Document(theFileName, LoadFormat.FormatAuto, null);

MemoryStream theMemoryStream = new MemoryStream();

theSourceFile.Save(theMemoryStream, SaveFormat.FormatAsposePdf);

I have no idea what the problem is.

The problem is caused by list autonumbering scheme in table’s first column.
Try to change it to a simplier form as a workaround, while we shall try to fix the problem.

To be more exact, the problem was caused by list level 3 starting immediately after list level 1 and list label using numbers for all list levels (1.1.a). List number for level 2 was not internally initialized. I fixed this and it will go out in Aspose.Word 3.5 at the end of January.
If you want a workaround, make sure that when you use list numbers such as 1.1.1, you don’t have gaps in list levels. E.g. level 2 starts after level 1, level 3 starts after level 2 and so on.
