-### **iText** lib usage has been deprecated, no default components relies on it any longer, it will be removed in Simplicité 7.0.
+- **iText** lib usage has been deprecated, no default components relies on it any longer, it will be removed in Simplicité 7.0.
 	- `PDFTool` methods have been deprecated, we recommend migrating to PDF generation through [HTMLToPDFTool](https://platform.simplicite.io/6.2/javadoc/com/simplicite/util/tools/HTMLToPDFTool.html) or [PDFBox](https://pdfbox.apache.org/).
 	- In case you need to continue the use of iText, you will as always be able to integrate it as an additional third-party library, but we recommend buying a licence and using an up-to-date version due to [the licensing and security matters associated with iText 2.1.7](https://kb.itextpdf.com/it5kb/can-itext-2-1-7-itextsharp-4-1-6-or-earlier-be-use).
 	- The native PDF exports (lists and module documentation) have been migrated to PDFBox.
