During the conversion of a Word file to a PDF format, it seems that certain special symbols are not properly transformed. Here’s an example:" test1.docx" represents the initial document, while “test1.pdf” has been generated through the application of the words-24.3-jdk17.jar module. How to solve this problem?

It appears that certain special symbols in your Word document are not converting properly to PDF. This issue can occur due to various reasons, such as font compatibility or unsupported symbols during the conversion process.

To address this, you can try the following steps:

  1. Ensure Fonts are Embedded: Make sure that the fonts used in your Word document are embedded in the PDF. You can do this by setting the EmbedFullFonts property to true in the PdfSaveOptions class.

    Here’s a code snippet to illustrate this:

    Document doc = new Document("test1.docx");
PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions();
options.EmbedFullFonts = true; // Embed full fonts
doc.Save("test1.pdf", options);

  2. Check for Unsupported Symbols: Review the symbols in your Word document. If they are not standard or are custom symbols, consider replacing them with more common alternatives that are supported in PDF format.

  3. Explore Additional PdfSaveOptions: You can also investigate other properties in PdfSaveOptions that might enhance the conversion quality, such as OptimizeOutput or Compliance.

If the problem persists, consider checking the Aspose documentation for more detailed options related to PDF conversion or seeking assistance in the Aspose forums for specific cases similar to yours.
