"Extra" input field when Generating PDF from Word

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

I have the following Word tempalte:

714×346 10.2 KB

When I save this docx via Aspose API, I get the following result (depending on the “fillable” DocProp beeing true or false):

803×341 17.2 KB

794×340 16.6 KB

I generate the PDF file using the following code:

    public byte[] writeFile(Document document, String fileExtension) throws IOException {

        try (ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream()) {
            SaveOptions saveOptions = SaveOptions.createSaveOptions(SaveFormat.fromName(fileExtension.toUpperCase()));
            if(saveOptions instanceof PdfSaveOptions pdfSaveOptions){
                pdfSaveOptions.setPreserveFormFields(true);
                pdfSaveOptions.setUpdateFields(true);
            }
            document.getFieldOptions().setFieldUpdateCultureSource(FieldUpdateCultureSource.FIELD_CODE);
            document.save(outputStream, saveOptions);

            return outputStream.toByteArray();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }

Attached the test files.

Why is there an extra input field in the PDF files?
How can I get rid of that?

Many thanks!
