RTF Conversion is Changing Font to Wingdings

We have a simple need at our location to load RTF files into Aspose Words, and then sometimes write them back out. We’ve found that some documents, once loaded into Aspose Words, are written out in wingding font.


I’ve attached a sample RTF that shows this behavior. You can open the RTF to see that it’s fine, but after Aspose Words writes it back out, the font is in WingDings and the document is unreadable.

You can verify this behavior with this very simple c# code:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Document doc = new Document(“ToAspose_ReConversion_Makes_Wingdings.rtf”);
doc.Save(“converted.rtf”);

}

Please help - we just put Aspose Words into Production this last weekend and had to back it out. The sooner we can get this fixed, the better.

Thank you.
