Do you mean the black rectangles that appeared to the left of the text?

No. The underline is not black, is purple. And the html has the property text-decoration.color: black

On the other hand, the strikethrough is black (expected behavior)

Thanks

Thanks for the explanation, it’s a subtle detail and I might have missed it - I’ll take a closer look at it with higher magnification.

I checked and reproduced as is for the attached application (without connecting a license).
The html->pdf conversion itself occurs correctly (you can verify this by adding a document save immediately after conversion), the line color changes later when processing the text.
If you add an intermediate document save
(at the moment, the complete document formation is carried out when calling the Save method),

public void ProcessText()
{
    var textFragmentAbsorber = new TextFragmentAbsorber();
    _pdfDocument.Pages.Accept(textFragmentAbsorber);

    foreach (TextFragment textFragment in textFragmentAbsorber.TextFragments)
    {
        ProcessDeletedText(textFragment);
        _pdfDocument.Save(new MemoryStream()); // <-------- with this line is black.
        ProcessInsertedTextV2(textFragment);
    }
}

then in the final document the line will be black.
I regard this as a bug and will create a task for the development team.
