Converting Word File to PDF with Flow Chart

Hi,

I have problems converting a Word-Document containing a flowchart diagram to pdf.
The resultfile only shows the Headline and Text but not the flowchart.

I think a flowchart is not supported or is it ?
Is there any other way like programmatically convert all flow charts into graphics and then convert it into pdf?

Examplefile is attached

Hi Marc,

On further analyzing the input Word document, the flowchart diagram is inside word processing canvas. At present, we do not have support to render word processing canvas shapes in Word to PDF conversion. We have already logged this as a feature request in our database. We don’t have any immediate plans to implement this feature. At the planning stage for every release cycle, we review all open features. We will let you know when this feature is implemented.

You can track the status of this feature using the following feedback link:

As a workaround kindly modify the word processing canvas shape as image in the input Word document (
programmatically it is not feasible) thereby it will be preserved properly in the generated PDF using Essential DocIO.

Please find the modified Word document from the below attachment.

Regards,
Suriya Balamurugan.
