    Render HTML in pdf template

    Hi there

    Is there a way to get the pdf template engine to render html?

    We have a textfield with html, that we like to include in a pdf quote.

    Greetings from Denmark

    Hello
    If you want to paste html manually, paste in on Code View (</> button on the text area toolbar)
    If it is some field {{field}} - use {{{field}}}

          Hey tanya

          It is a teksttype field and same apply to wysiyug field type.
          The tekst is "<p>This is a multiline tekst</p><p>This is a line</p><p>This is an other line</p>"
          The problem is that is the same tekst with tags that are printet on the pdf.

            on the wysiwyg area tags are shown or text are only formatted and tags are hidden?

              Hi again

              Thanks for quick reply.
              No on both text-fields and wysiwyg-fields are tags shown on the pdf.

                If you type html in text field, don't break rows
                If you input html in wysiwyg field, do it in code view
                On template wrap field in {{{field}}}

                With this recommendations everything works well for me.

                    Creating documents based on the other entities would be a very, very, very good thing.
