PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions();

options.ColorMode = Aspose.Words.Saving.ColorMode.Grayscale;

Document doc = new Document(“input.docx”);
doc.Save(“Out_AW176.pdf”,options);

This information worked MOSTLY. The images were made Rich Black which is still CMYK we are trying to get a color document to PDF in Black/Greyscale.

Any ideas?

Thanks so much.

The document is confidential.

However it is a document with a color logo and when savef as greyscale the logo is still cmyk rich black. The fonts and everything else is black/greyscale. We are trying to convert to black from color where the customers printing will be cheaper.

Any direction or insight would be appreciated.

Thanks for sharing the source document. We have noticed that Adobe Preflight recognize logo color space as DeviceRGB color space, so logged a ticket WORDSNET-15552 in our issue tracking system for further investigation and rectification. We will keep you updated about the issue resolution progress within this forum thread.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.
