You can easily know if a document is produced by using Aspose.Words for .NET. You can also find the version number of Aspose.Words for .NET that was used to create a particular output document. Aspose.Words directly writes this information into the generated document.
The version number is specified in the format YY.MM.N or YY.M.N, for example, 23.12.0 or 24.1.0.
Here YY is the last two digits of the release year, M or MM is the release month (1–12), and N is the minor release number. Usually, N is “0”.
Note that you can instruct Aspose.Words to remove this information from output documents.
Depending on the output file format, the following table lists the ways that you can use to know the generator name and version number.
