Save PDF as Docx with mode Textbox creates Frames

[arn951]

Save PDF as Docx with mode Textbox creates Frames, the old style for text boxes, that has poor support in MSWord format section.
Please create TextBox shapes.

Here my code :
using (Document pdfFile = new Document(Path.Combine(SampleFiles, “OrgSampleFontSize.pdf”)))
{
pdfFile.Save(Path.Combine(SampleFiles, “Sample.Textbox.docx”), new DocSaveOptions()
{
Format = DocSaveOptions.DocFormat.DocX,
Mode = DocSaveOptions.RecognitionMode.Textbox
});
}

As you can see that mode=TextBox has higher quality, but Frame less comfortable.

My updated code :

using (Document pdfFile = new Document(Path.Combine(SampleFiles, “OrgSampleTextBox.pdf”)))
{
pdfFile.Save(Path.Combine(SampleFiles, “Sample.Flow.docx”), new DocSaveOptions()
{
Format = DocSaveOptions.DocFormat.DocX,
Mode = DocSaveOptions.RecognitionMode.Flow
});
pdfFile.Save(Path.Combine(SampleFiles, “Sample.Textbox.docx”), new DocSaveOptions()
{
Format = DocSaveOptions.DocFormat.DocX,
Mode = DocSaveOptions.RecognitionMode.Textbox
});
}
