hi,
Hi Bruce,
Thanks for contacting support.
I have tested the scenario using the latest release of [Aspose.Pdf for .NET 10.6.0] (On Premise File Format API Releases | Aspose) in Visual Studio 2012 application with target .NET Framework 4.0 running over Windows 7 (x64) and I am unable to notice any issue. As per my observations, the resultant DOCX is properly opening in MS Word 2010.
For your reference, I have also attached the resultant file generated over my end. Please take a look.
C# Example:
// Open source PDF file
Document pdfDocument = new Document(@"c:/pdftest/Merchant_Services_Application_Form.pdf");
// save the output in MS DOCX format
pdfDocument.Save(c:/pdftest/Merchant_Services_Application_Form.docx", SaveFormat.DocX);
