Save as Html adds an Strikethrough on the entire document

Aspose.Cells Product Family
#1

Hello Aspose,

When we save the attached excel-file as an html-file with Aspose, every bit of text is shown with an strikethrough and the background turns blue. The change in background also happens when I save it with Excel, so that’s working as intended ? The strikethrough is definitely an bug.

I check the Excel document, but I can’t find the reason it’s showing an blue background and an strikethrough. Do you know which setting is causing this ?

Code:

Workbook lWorkbook = new Workbook( lFilePath );
lWorkbook.save( lSavePath, FileFormatType.HTML );

@inceptionEhv,

Please notice, I am able to reproduce the issue as you mentioned by converting your template XLSM file to HTML. I found in the output HTML, the text/data in the cells is shown with strikethrough. I have logged a ticket with an id “CELLSJAVA-44384” for your issue. We will look into it soon.

Once we have an update on it, we will let you know.

There is background and strikethrough in the default style of columns in your source file, when exporting it to html, the style is on the <body> tag(class attribute).

Let me explain that why Excel doesn’t have this issue. When exporting to html, it doesn’t write text-decoration for strikethrough in style. Instead, it uses <s> tag when there is a text with strikethough style.

However, if there is background and underline in the default style of columns(see attachment: Book1.zip (6.5 KB), when exporting to html, Excel will write text-decoration for underline in style. So Excel will have similar issue as Aspose.Cells in this case.

In a word, when exporting to html, some styles may be lost or not right.
