Mathtype not converting to html on linux with mono

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

Hi folks there is a bug that aspose.words will not convert a mathtype formula when running on the mono framework on license.


The html does convert and a png file is created, but the png is blank. I have attached the example files.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your inquiry. I would suggest you please upgrade to the latest version (v14.6.0) from here and let us know how it goes on your side. Hope this helps you. If the problem still remains, please share following detail for testing purposes.

  • What environment are you running on?
    • OS (Linux Version)
    • Architecture (32 / 64 bit)
    • .NET Framework version
  • Please supply us with the code from your application that is causing the issue

FYI this issue is still not resolved. Just tested Aspose Words 16.8 under Ubuntu 16.0.4 LTS with Mono 4.2, no luck.
In general PNG images do not work OK with Mono framework and Aspose Words.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your inquiry. Please create a simple Java application (source code without compilation errors) that helps us to reproduce your problem on our end and attach it here for testing.

Please use attached mathtype_example.docx and convert it to html with basic code like this:

Document doc = new Document(“mathtype_example.docx”);

HtmlSaveOptions saveOptions = new HtmlSaveOptions();

string outputFile = “output.html”;

doc.Save(outputFile, saveOptions);

PS. Did more testing and it seems that PNG images in docs work OK, but math equations in docs do not work OK with Mono.
