    Hi,

     

    We are doing conversion from DOCX to PDF or HTML.

    One of the issues we are facing is that hidden text (with v:vanish tag) is being visible in both HTML and PDF (see example XML from the document.xml below).
     

    Could you please advice how this can be fixed?

    This is critical for our project.

    <w:lang w:val="en-CA"/>
    <w:color w:val="FF0000"/>
    <w:sz w:val="20"/>
    <w:szCs w:val="20"/>
    <w:vanish w:val="1"/>
    </w:rPr>
    <w:t xml:space="preserve">
    Some hidden text
    </w:t>
    </w:r>
