Technical - Aspose Words does not preserve <dl><dd> tags

Hi
I’m trying to convert an html document that looks as follows:-

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
    <DL><DD>(1) Persons who are residents of the district.</DD></DL>
    <DL><DD>(2) Persons who are former residents of the district.</DD></DL>
</body>
</html>

I am converting this html to word and then back to html. When I do so, all formatting and the <DL><DD> tags are lost. Is there a way to preserve this information? I need to do this for a large number of documents where the <DL><DD> tags are within other tags as well so a simple regex to replace after the fact is not going to work.

Thanks.

Hi

Thanks for your request. Aspose.Words does not support DL, DT and DD tags upon HTML import. Your request has been linked to the appropriate issue. You will be notified as soon as it is resolved.
You should note that there is no analog of Definition List in MS Word documents, so most likely this is impossible to preserve DL, DT and DD tags upon HTML->DOC->HTML roundtrip.
Best regards.
