HTML Text with background-color set has unwanted linebreaks

Aspose.PDF Product Family

Hi everybody,

I have an issue with the output of HTML text in PDF documents. Once the HTML code includes a background-color style there's a linebreak before and after that part (see sample code).

The intended result is a single line without the linebreaks.

As-Is:

Normal test, and
deleted text
as well as
text with background colors
shouldn't have any linebreaks in it

Intended:

Normal test, and deleted text as well as text with background colors shouldn't have any linebreaks in it

public void StyleAddedLineBreaks()

{

LicenseSetter.LicensePath = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Aspose.LicensePath"];

LicenseSetter.SetLicense();

Pdf pdf1 = new Pdf();

Section sec1 = pdf1.Sections.Add();

Text desc;

desc = new Text(“Normal text, and <del style=“background-color:#FFCC99;”>deleted text as well as <ins style=“background-color:#FFFF99;”>text with background colors shouldn’t have any linebreaks in it”);


desc.IsHtmlTagSupported = true;


sec1.Paragraphs.Add(desc);

// Save the resultant PDF document


pdf1.Save(@“C:/temp/StyleAddedLineBreaks.pdf”);


}

Being able to highlight text is a VERY common use case, and basic core functionality. Please properly prioritize this bug fix.
