You are storing same value in you PV. As I know, a process variable will not accept the next line. Automatically it will be remove the line break and accept everything as a single string line. It is similar to email Subject ,as you cannot have email subject in multiple line. Similarly, an  Appian process variables will not accept a line break (by default- design limitation).But, It will work fine with expression rule or HTML template in your case.

Yeah I am trying into send email smart service only.
