The problem is caused by “Coverage for Vacant Buildings” table. When I resize it in MS Word it screws up completely. Try to remove it and create a new one form scratch. Use this as a temporary workaround

I will make a further research of this issue and inform you afterwards.

I have logged this problem to our defect base as issue #853. We will research it and post the results here in this thread.

The table contains a column with zero width (which I believe is actually not valid in a Word file) and this caused the export to PDF algorithm to fail. Fixed in Aspose.Words 3.5.2 which is now available for download on:
