Word doc to xml

in this aspose article you convert a word doc to xml.
https://docs.aspose.com/words/net/convert-a-document-to-pdf/
can you tell me how you got from step1 to the xml in step 2? all i see is when saving a word doc as xml you get word xml and it is nothing like the xml in the article.
Thanks

Hi
Thanks for your inquiry. Currently the latest version of Aspose.Words supports direct conversion to PDF (without saving into intermediate XML format and using Aspose.Pdf). Old legacy method was excluded from the latest version.
You can use Aspose.Words to convert documents to WordML format, which is actually an XML. You can use the following code to convert your document:

// Open DOC document
Document doc = new Document("in.doc");
// Convert to WordML
doc.Save("out.xml", SaveFormat.WordML);

Best regards,
