How to preserve line breaks in text area results?
Hello,
In one of our saved searches (transactions / purchase orders), I need to include a custom body field of type text area in the search results.
It works except that all line breaks are replaced by single spaces, i.e.
"Line 1
Line 2"
Will be shown as
"Line 1 Line 2"
Is there a way (e.g. using Formula(text) with certain functions) to preserve the line breaks?
I am using the search results for printing as Advanced PDF/HTML and losing the line breaks messes up the layout.
Thanks for any hints!
