MS Word file layout and number of pages change when converting to PDF

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

Hello,
One of our clients reported an issue with the PDF conversion using Aspose Words. When the attached MS Word file “Word.doc” is converted to the PDF by Aspose Words, the resulting PDF file “Aspose.pdf” has its layout changed in many places and has an increase in page number as well as its file size. When the same Word document is converted by the Adobe Acrobat Pro, the resulting file “Adobe.pdf” has the same page # and the layout as the original document with much smaller file size. What causes this difference? Can you fix the problem? Is there anything I can do to remove/reduce this discrepancy?
The Aspose.Words version is : 6.3.0.0
The Aspose PDF version is : 4.0.0.2
Regards,
Greg

Hi

Thanks for your request. Currently Aspose.Words supports two ways of PDF conversion: direct conversion (without using Aspose.Pdf) and legacy conversion (Aspose.Words+Aspose.Pdf). See the following link for more information:
https://docs.aspose.com/words/net/convert-a-document-to-pdf/
I cannot reproduce the problem using the latest version of Aspose.Words (7.0.0)
Please try using the following code:

Document doc = new Document("in.doc");
doc.SaveToPdf("out.pdf");

In this case, the output PDF document looks much better.
The latest version of Aspose.Words, you can download from here:
