Hurray!
No chart support yet. I suggest mentioning that in the KB. If you need chart support, it takes a lot of effort before you discover that it is not there.
Hi Pieter,
Currently, chart is not supported in Word to PDF conversion in ASP.NET Core application. We will update the limitations of Word to PDF conversion in our UG documentation page.

This is great, just wondering how to control the way the the pdf is saved. Specifically, how to save it in pdf-1a format?
Thanks,
Graham
Hi Graham,
Thank you for using Syncfusion products.
Currently DocIORenderer doesn’t have support to generate a PDF document with pdf-1a conformance. We have logged this as a feature request in our database. We will implement this feature in any of our upcoming releases. At present, we cannot provide any concrete timeline for this feature implementation. We will let you know once this feature is implemented.

Packages are out of date again :) There seems to be a lot of churn with the nuget packages. Is there a page we can subscribe to?
Also, it seems that chart support still isn't available during document conversion. Is this being actively worked on or still on a backlog?
Cheers!
