Word with track changes to PDF using Memory stream-wrong position of shapes

Hi,

I have a word document with Track changes. I save to a memory stream as shown below and create an email attachment of PDF type.

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
//Save it as a PDF type of memory stream
doc.Save(ms,SaveFormat.Pdf);
Attachment at = new Attachment(ms, new Aspose.Email.Mime.ContentType(“application/pdf”));

See bottom first page in attached word doc.Some square shapes were added as tracked changes.
After export to pdf via word document manually the pdf was generated which looks fine.

The pdf generated via aspose has alternate boxes positions incorrect.

FYI, We also have an outstanding issue WORDSNET-8695 which might be similar to the current one.

Hi Shah,

Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately, your issue is not resolved yet. Our development team completed the analysis of this issue and the root cause had been identified. However, keeping in view the complexity of this issue, the implementation of the fix had been postponed till a later date. I am afraid, the priority of the issue is lowered because this is a very rare case and it requires us to do a deep investigation to find out the best way to fix this. So, currently, we cannot provide you any timeline regarding this issue.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Hi Shah,

Thanks for your your patience.

As a workaround of this issue, please insert paragraph break right before the section break and re-position the moved shapes. This will give the correct output in Aspose.Words. Also using tables instead of heaps of text frames will give much simpler document structure. Hope this helps you.
