How can I display a date on BI report with PDF layout?

Hi,

I want to display two date fields on a BI report PDF output.

The two fields are the report parameters and are of type DATE (not char. I cannot/don't want to change this).

The report has an .rtf layout that displys data as .pdf.

In the preview, all is fine, date appear as expected, due to proper format in the layout template:

<?format-date:P_START_DATE;'DD-MM-YYYY';'UTC'?>

(P_START_DATE is a parameter of the report, of type DATE)


But when I send the .PDF output as attachment to an email (through bursting), the data is not displayed anymore.

Howdy, Stranger!
