Unsupported file format: Pdf

Hi,
I am trying to compare two PDF files with Aspose.Words.C++. But just loading a PDF file does not work.
I am calling

System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Document>(u"C:\\Temp\\293398_PDF\\Word\\285550_ZeroWidthCol.pdf");

with the attached PDF file. I then get the exception “Unsupported file format: Pdf”.

Shouldn’t PDF be supported?

Thank you for your help

@mat0 PDF is not supported as a load format in C++ version of Aspose.Words, PDF format is supported only as an output document format.
Loading PDF documents is supported only in .NET and Python versions of Aspose.Words.
