I have an api that takes in an IFormFile and converts it to a pdf, When running locally everything works but when hosed as a lambda function and API gateway the same file (.doc with 1 line of random text) returns a UnsupportedFileFormatException

   [Route("DocToPdf")]
[HttpPost]
public IActionResult DocToPdf(IFormFile file)
{
    if (file == null || file.Length == 0)
    {
        return BadRequest("Invalid File");
    }

    if (!file.ContentType.Contains(".document") &&
        file.ContentType != "application/msword")
    {
        return BadRequest("Unsupported File type");
    }

    byte[] pdf = _aspose.ConvertFileToPdf(file);

    return File(pdf, "application/pdf");
}

public byte[] ConvertFileToPdf(IFormFile file)
{
using (Stream stream = file.OpenReadStream())
{
return ConvertStreamToPdf(stream);
}
}

public byte[] ConvertStreamToPdf(Stream stream)
{
    var doc = new Document(stream);

    using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
    {
        doc.Save(ms, SaveFormat.Pdf);

        return ms.ToArray();
    }
}
