Hi,

We are using Aspose.Slides.NET.22.4.0 and we noticed that bullets with symbols from Wingdings are not shown in the browser correctly. We know these fonts are not standard and they will not be supported in most browsers.

This is the code I am using:

    using (Presentation presentation = new Presentation(pptxInputFilePath))
    {
        presentation.Save($"{folderName}\\{fileName}_html5.html", SaveFormat.Html5, new Html5Options
        {
            AnimateShapes = false,
            AnimateTransitions = false
        });
    }

I am attaching the input pptx file and the output file to this post. Thank you!
