I am trying to generate PDF from docx where docx contains STD which is bound to CustomXML part. I have created a simple sample to demonstrate the issue:
The sample is written using Aspose.Words 18.12.0 and dotnet core
Open the project in VSCode
Open command and run dotnet restore and then dotnet run
You will see there is docx folder. In that folder, you will see the test1.docx and test.pdf
If you open the pdf you will the placeholder for plain text SDT
If you open the test1.docx file then you will see the updated content in SDT.
Note:
If you open this document in MS Word and save then you will be able to generate pdf with content.
