.doc to .pdf

[AlanKinder]

Hello,

I've just checked if Spire.Doc could handle pdf convertion and it does for .docx.
When I'm doing exactly the same but for .doc I'm getting "NullReferenceException" occurred in Spire.Doc.dll.

My question is, does Spire.Doc handle .doc to .pdf or just .docx to .pdf ?
In case it handles .doc to .pdf please reply with how this is done or point me to a proper example/sample.

Kind Regards,
Alan

Dear Alan,

Thanks for your inquiry.
The .doc and .docx can be converted to PDF.

Hello,

I cannot send you the files as they are restricted/ security protected.

This can be reproduced by adding any .doc file inside the path in the below code.

Document docOne = new Document();
docOne.LoadFromFile(@"ADD PATH OF .DOC HERE");

Document docTwo = new Document();
docTwo.LoadFromFile(@"ADD PATH OF .DOC HERE");

foreach(Section sec in docTwo.Sections)
{
docOne.Sections.Add(sec.Clone());
}

//ERROR HERE
docOne.SaveToFile("DocToPDF.Pdf", FileFormat.PDF);

Please let me know if there is a mistake as I couldn't spot it.

Thanks,
Alan

Dear Alan,

Thanks for your reply.
Did you use latest Spire.Doc Pack(hot fix) Version:5.6.16?
I have tested your codes with two .doc documents, but I didn't encounter any issue, the result is ok.
It is difficult to say what the reason caused this issue if you don't send us sample documents.

Hi,

Version usage is a trial : 5.6.16.3040 .
Documents cannot be send to any 3rd party because of security. (important stuff )

All I can say is that I used the code provided to test Spire.Doc functionality and I got issues when trying to convert to PDF.
Merging is working fine from what I've seen. I merged .docx alone, .doc alone and combined .doc and .docx, all worked ok for merging. The problem is that when I'm trying to convert to pdf, the only one working is the .docx alone, while .doc alone or .doc + .docx document ( im talking about the merged documents here ) do not pass the :
docOne.SaveToFile("DocToPdf.Pdf", FileFormat.PDF);

Please feel free to reply with any suggestions that could fix this issue, or code sections which work fine for this convertion that I mentioned above.

Kind Regards,
Alan
