According to https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff836084.aspx[^] the encoding parameter is the 12th (starting counting with one) but you passed it as 13th:

Quote:
SaveAs2(FileName, FileFormat, LockComments, Password, AddToRecentFiles, WritePassword, ReadOnlyRecommended, EmbedTrueTypeFonts, SaveNativePictureFormat, SaveFormsData, SaveAsAOCELetter, Encoding, InsertLineBreaks, AllowSubstitutions, LineEnding, AddBiDiMarks, CompatibilityMode)

Solution 2

Further to Jochen's answer, the Encoding parameter expects a code page or character set, but you're trying to pass in an Encoding object.

Word doesn't know about .NET's Encoding type. You need to pass in the CodePage property instead:

C#

object utf8 = Encoding.UTF8.CodePage;
