Paragraph Field Data into Body of Email

The best option is to substitute the char(10) to <br> while sending to Email body

local!myText:
"ABC
asdas
sdfsdfds
",

local!EmailBody: substitute(text:local!myText, find:char(10), replace_with:"<br>")

Yeah this is working fine for me and thank you for this.

You probably want to make an expression rule which you can pass any text through when using in an email, as email text has its own special quirks as well as HTML formatting.

I've used the following expression rule for a long time now and it's worked well.  It replaces regular line breaks (char(10)) with "<br/>" tags, replaces secondary line breaks (char(13)) with null, and replaces "&", "<" and ">" with their HTML equivalents, to reduce the risk that they cause issues when entered by a user.

reduce(
  fn!substitute,
  trim(ri!input),
  
  merge(
    {
      "&",
      ">",
      "<",
      char(10),
      char(13)
    },
    {
      tohtml("&"),
      tohtml(">"),
      tohtml("<"),
      <br/>,
      ""
    }
  )
)

Thank you so much Mike it is working perfectly fine.

I have a quick question mike, on this,

What if i wanted to put the same in the word document and display it as document then what should be done,

When i tried the same doing it calling in the word document from template it is throwing this error.


We are sorry we cannot open the document as it is having the error in its content.

Can you please suggest on this if you have any idea on this.

For word documents, it requires similar coding but the replacements are different, as you need to use WordML instead of HTML.

Namely, you'd need to use a special specific line break code that Word knows how to read.  The other characters can remain the same.  Here's my "word text sanitizer" rule:

reduce(
  fn!substitute,
  trim(ri!input),
  
  merge(
    {
      "&",
      ">",
      "<",
      char(10),
      char(13)
    },
    {
      tohtml("&"),
      tohtml(">"),
      tohtml("<"),
      "</w:t><w:br/><w:t>",
      ""
    }
  )
)

Thanks Mike,

This problem is solved and this i could able to achieve this...
but when i am trying to convert to PDF , it is not coming properly, Fr this is there any changes to be done.... sorry for bugging you.

I am using PDF from docx

The Only problem in PDF is it is giving only one line break

post that how many line breaks it has it is ignoring.....

Any help on this pls.

I'm not very familiar with the PDF from docx plug-in; as far as I know it might intentionally strip out extra linebreaks during conversion for space saving or for other technical reasons.

Thank you Mike, is there any better option to directly create a PDF document with the body ....
If so please suggest
