Hi,
Sometimes when there is an image inside a table in a docx document, a call to document.Save in order to convert to PDF fails with a NullReferenceException. It seems to be related to the page layout since there is a call to Aspose.Words.Document.UpdatePageLayout() in the call stack.
I’ve attached a zip file containing a docx file with which the issue occurs and a notebook (.ipynb file) containing instructions and C# code to reproduce the issue.

Hello,
I made further tests and discovered that removing tab stops in the docx file “solve” the problem. Just removing this element from document.xml
<w:tabs>
<w:tab w:val="decimal" w:leader="dot" w:pos="8505" />
</w:tabs>
and the problem go away. Maybe this information could help you investigating the issue.
