Some docx files are not processing with exception "System.InvalidCastException"

We have few documents (attached) which could not be opened by Aspose API and we get an exception.

Hi Vladyslav,


Thanks for your inquiry. We have tested the scenario using Aspose.Words for .NET 17.4 and unable to notice the reported issue. Your shared DOCX files are being loaded successfully in Aspose.Words. Please download and try latest version of Aspose.Words, it will resolve the issue. However if the issue persists then please share your sample code here, we will further look into the issue and will guide you accordingly.

Best Regards,

Hi Tilal,


Sorry, by mistake we uploaded non-modified documents which are really processed without errors.
I attached the documents which can be used to reproduce the issue.
Could you please try them and let us know if you are able to catch the exception?

Thanks in advance!
