Hi Tom,
Thanks for your inquiry.
I cannot reproduce the issue using the latest verison of Aspose.Words (10.1.0). You can download it from here.
Thanks,

i upgraded to 10.1.0 and still get this when saving as .pdf AND as .tif. it works saving as doc.
Unexpected underline type.
if i save the doc as a .doc then reopen and save it as .pdf or .tif the doc will save but the underline is gone.

Hi Tom,

Thank you for additional information. I also tried converting your document to PDF using Aspose.Words for .NET (10.1.0), and still no problems on my side.
I use this code for testing:

Document doc = new Document("a1.pdf.doc");
doc.Save("out.pdf");

Best regards,

if i save it 1st (which i have to, to send it to you) then reopen it it works. except at my end the underline is gone.
here is my code so you can see that i’m using builder in cloned table cells.

Private Sub FillPTable(ByVal dict As FillItems, ByVal rvs As PReview.PReviewItemCollection, ByVal bookmark As Aspose.Words.Bookmark, ByVal doc As Aspose.Words.Document)
    rvs.SortByDOS()
    Dim tbl As Aspose.Words.Tables.Table = getTable(bookmark.Name, doc)
    'todo this assume a 1 row header
    Dim templRowsAt As New List(Of Integer)
    Dim templRows As New List(Of Aspose.Words.Tables.Row)
    For i As Integer = 1 To tbl.Rows.Count - 1
        Dim r As Aspose.Words.Tables.Row = tbl.Rows(i)
        templRowsAt.Add(i)
        templRows.Add(CType(r.Clone(True), Aspose.Words.Tables.Row))
    Next
    For Each rv As PReview.PReviewItem In rvs
        For Each rr As Aspose.Words.Tables.Row In templRows
            Dim newRow As Aspose.Words.Tables.Row = CType(rr.Clone(False), Aspose.Words.Tables.Row)
            For Each c As Aspose.Words.Tables.Cell In rr
                Dim newCell As Aspose.Words.Tables.Cell = CType(c.Clone(False), Aspose.Words.Tables.Cell)
                Dim para As New Aspose.Words.Paragraph(doc)
                newCell.AppendChild(para)
                newRow.AppendChild(newCell)
                Dim txtCmd As String = c.ToTxt
                Dim txt As String = FillValues(txtCmd, dict, rv)
                Dim txts() As String = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Split(txt, "(?=\<)|(?<=\>)")
                Dim b As New Aspose.Words.DocumentBuilder(doc)
                b.MoveTo(para)
                Dim curFont As Aspose.Words.Font = Nothing
                For Each t As String In txts
                    Select Case t.ToUpper
                        Case "<br />".ToUpper
                            b.Writeln()
                        Case "<b>".ToUpper
                            b.Font.Bold = True
                        Case "</b>".ToUpper
                            b.Font.Bold = False
                        Case "<u>".ToUpper
                            b.Font.Underline = True
                        Case "</u>".ToUpper
                            b.Font.Underline = False
                        Case "<font color='white'>".ToUpper
                            curFont = b.Font
                            b.Font.Color = Drawing.Color.White
                        Case "<font color='blue'>".ToUpper
                            curFont = b.Font
                            b.Font.Color = Drawing.Color.Blue
                        Case "</font>".ToUpper
                            b.Font.Color = curFont.Color
                        Case Else
                            b.Write(t)
                    End Select
                Next
            Next
            tbl.Rows.Add(newRow)
        Next
    Next
    For Each at As Integer In templRowsAt
        tbl.Rows.RemoveAt(at)
    Next

End Sub

if was

b.Font.Underline = True

b.Font.Underline = single

Hi
Thank you for additional information. Please try using the following line of code:

builder.Font.Underline = Underline.Single

Hi there,
Also note you maybe able to simplify your code by using the DocumentBuilder.InsertHtml method if you have not already tried using this.
Thanks,
