Bullet Is Appearing at the Start of Paragraph without <ul> Tag in HTML Text

Hi,
we have ppt pitch pro template(basic template). we are reading this template as input stream and adding to the presentation object. then we are taking slide of the presentation object and add this to main presentation object as clone.
whenever we are converting html data to text using asFromHtml method to a paragraph. bullet (or unordered list) is coming with different symbol (windings character code 127) with differnt color. we want a simple dot bullet to come. (this is without setting the bullet properties programatically)
when i tried to set the properties of bullet in paragraph in java code, we are getting the dot bullet back, but the paragraph is starting with Windings(character code 127) symbol and whenever there is a break or whitespace in the html text it is replacing with above character code.
This issue is not happening if we create the slide normally and add it to main presentation object without having the template.
can you help us understand why it is happening and our goal is simply a dot bullet to appear whenever there is ul tag in html code.

thanks

hi
Upgrading to higher version is not an option for us. please do give us support for 18.11 version.
our issue is when we add the html text to paragraph in itextframe, and set bullet font, character, size, HardFont, all these properties programatically, dot bullet is coming whenever there is unordered list but it is also coming at the start of paragraph. we need to remove the bullet at the start of the paragraph. can you please help us on this.

thanks

@myappleaxis,
Please share the rest of the data and information mentioned above. We will do our best to help you.

hi the issue was resolved with just using the setBulletHardFont(NullableBool.True) and not setting any customized bullet properties(font, type,char) . we were able to get dot bullet whenever there is unordered list.

@myappleaxis,
Thank you for the information. We are glad to know that the issue has been resolved on your end.
