Hi Shikha,

It is to inform you that our development team has completed the work on the issue (WORDSNET-8560) and has come to a conclusion that this issue and the undesired behaviour you're observing is actually not a bug in Aspose.Words. So, we have closed this issue as 'Not a Bug'.

"Courier" is a bitmap font. MS Word do not use it and substitute with TrueType "Courier New" font. Aspose.Words do the same. "CourierNewPSMT" is a PostScript name of the "Courier New" font which should be written to PDF according to specification. Aspose.Words follows the specification and MS Word does not. This is the difference. The actual font files are same in Aspose.Words and MS Word output.

If we can help you with anything else, please feel free to ask.
