Converting a word to a pdf mess up the footnotes if UpdateTableOfContents is performed

Hi

I've found a bug.

Steps to reproduce:

Create a word documents. Add a TOC. Add some footnotes. Update the TOC, and then convert the document to a pdf.

The problem: in the pdf all footnotes are messed up, or even gone.

Here a snippet of code to test it:

            WordDocument docx = new WordDocument();

            docx.Open("test.docx");

            docx.UpdateTableOfContents();

            docx.Save("testres.docx");


            DocToPDFConverter converter = new DocToPDFConverter();

            PdfDocument pdfDocument = converter.ConvertToPDF(docx);

            pdfDocument.PageSettings.Size = PdfPageSize.A4;
            pdfDocument.Save("Test.pdf");


testres.docx is fine. Even if I manually convert it to pdf the resulting pdf is fine. But test.pdf usually misses all the notes.

I've updated to the latest version (20.4.0.38) but this problem is still there. Tried with documents created with different word versions (2010 and 2016) but results it's always the same.
