Thanks for your inquiry. Please convert Ref Field to static text before PDF conversion, it will resolve the issue. Please check following documentation link for details, it will resolve the issue. SB_figure_test_Aw1710.pdf (266.0 KB)

Replace Fields with Static Text

Document document = new Document("SB_figure_test.docx");
FieldsHelper.ConvertFieldsToStaticText(document, FieldType.FieldRef);
document.Save("SB_figure_test_Aw1710.pdf");
