    How to make carriage returns work

    I have a multi-line textbox but the carriage returns (linefeeds?) are not being replicated in the PDF - how can I make them appear (the line feeds)?

    Aha!!! Figured it!

    I copied the "P" template and made it match "br". I then used

    PDF:RteToHtml(umbraco.library:ReplaceLineBreaks($currentPage/eventDetails))

    and it worked :-)

    Ahhh I have been trying to figure this out myself, thanks this should help - I'm using a Razor template though

    Hi Mate,

    Have a look at ~/App_Code/Pdf.cshtml

    It has a Razor helper called RenderRichText if you wrap up your RTE in that then it should parse paragrah tags.

    If you want to parse a break (br) you'd just add another helper for it and add to the case statement in ParseElement

    Hope this helps.
