Link Bootstrap CSS in HTML & Retain Unordered List during HTML to Word Conversion C# .NET

Problem: For a HTML input document, If a bootstap v3 css file is linked, unordered lists will always display a bullet, despite setting list-style-type or list-style to none

Version: Aspose.Words .NET, v17.3, v18.9

Description: Attached is a sample document, where a class is applied to sample lists in order to remove the item bullets. If the bootstrap css is included, bullets will always appear regardless of the list-style-type or list-style property setting. Attempting higher precedence via an inline style attribute, or !important, has no effect. If the bootstrap css link is removed, then the bullets no longer appear, as expected. Curiously, the bullet can be freely changed between disc/square/circle at will; the setting is honored in both scenarios.
