When creating a new Cells workbook by loading an HTML file, bold style defined in the style block is ignored. The style attribute is processed correctly.
HTML
.CustomCss td,
.CustomCss {
font-weight: bold;
}
regular
<td class="CustomCss">bold td
<td style="font-weight: bold">bold style
<tr class="CustomCss">
bold tr
<table class="CustomCss">
bold table
C#
var workbook = new Workbook(htmlStream, new HTMLoadOptions());
Microsoft Office takes these styling into account. So this seems a bug to me.
We have evaluated the presented scenario while using the latest version of Aspose.Cells for .NET 8.9.2.2 and we are able to notice the said problem. In order to further investigate the matter, we have logged this incident as CELLSNET-44695. Please spare us little time for the investigation. In the meanwhile, we will keep you posted with updates in this regard.
I am afraid, we haven’t yet received any feedback from the product team, however, I have requested the concerned member of the team to share an ETA for the ticket attached to this thread. As soon as we get any news, we will post here for your kind reference.
Is there any update on the status? We have quite some customers complaining that their excel sheets don’t contain bold headers/totals any more after we changed our implementation to use Aspose.Cells.
We are afraid there is no update for you at this moment regarding this issue. However, we have logged your comment in our database against this issue and again requested the product team to provide some fix or ETA for this issue.

This is to update you that the product team is working on the issue logged earlier as CELLSNET-44695, and we hope to provide the fix during the last week of September 2016.
I tested Corniel’s sample with 9.0.5.0, and that works fine, so this surely is an improvement. However, it seems to work only for TD tags, not for TH. I filed a separate bug for this:
Thank you for the confirmation on previously reported problem, and creating a new thread for your recent concerns. Please keep following the other thread for all communications in that regard.
