import java.io.File;

class TestAspose
{
 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
 {
  //try{
            System.out.println("Hello World!");
            File licenseFile = new File("C:\\Work\\Aspose.Words.lic") ;
            License l = new License();
            l.setLicense(licenseFile.getAbsolutePath());
            //Document doc = new Document("C:\\Work\\C4\\C4_P2\\TDD\\C4_PhaseII_TDD_v14.doc");
            //doc.save("C:/Work/AsposeOutput/C4_PhaseII_TDD_v14.pdf");
            Document doc = new Document("C:\\Work\\CTS_Architecture.doc");
            doc.save("C:\\Work\\AsposeOutput\\CTS_Architecture.pdf");
            System.out.println("Done Deal!");

Hi

Thanks for your request. I managed to reproduce the problem on my side. Your request has been linked to the appropriate issue. You will be notified as soon as it is fixed. This problem does not occur in .NET version of Aspose.Words. Currently we are working on synchronizing Java and .NET versions of Aspose.Words. Once we finish this work all functionality which is supported in, NET version will be supported in Java version. Also you should note, converting to PDF is in beta at the moment. I will notify you as soon as converting to PDF in Aspose.Words for Java is out of beta.

Best regards,
