Fail to convert dynamic XFA form to static on .Net 5.0 Linux

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi,
I use this snippet to convert dynamic XFA form to static form with Aspose.PDF .Net version 21.10.1.
using (var document = new Document(inFile))
{
// Check if input file is dynamic form, then we change it to static form
if (document.Form.Type == FormType.Dynamic)
{
document.Form.Type = FormType.Static;
document.Save(tempFile);
inFile = tempFile;
}
}
This code works fine on Windows, but on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04) an exception was thrown with message Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Attached sample file and sample project.sample.zip (77.3 KB)

Can you investigate this issue and give me some advice?
Thanks.

Would you please make sure that all Windows Font are installed in the system and libgdiplus package is updated? Please try to install msttcorefonts package and convert the document again. In case you still face any issue, please share the complete stack trace information thrown at your end.

Hi @asad.ali,
Thanks for your information. I was missing msttcorefonts package in my environment. After installing the package, the conversion works fine.
You can close this ticket now.

Can you check this sample? processed.zip (53.0 KB)

After installing msttcorefonts, the application runs for a long time but there is no output file or exception when processing the attached sample.
Thanks
