Number field not displaying correctly on RTF

Karlyn B

I have a RTF created with the BI Publisher Add-in and is sent as a PDF email notification through a bursted BIP report. There is a number field on the RTF, that is not displaying correctly. It seems to be reading the decimal as a carriage return.

What's strange, is that when the report is bursted in our Test environment, it displays correctly. The issue is only happening in our production environment. Test and Prod are setup the same.

Any idea why this could be happening?

Hi @Karlyn B
Have you added any logic in Advanced section of this field.

Hi Karlyn,

Try the below:

1. Font Differences Between Environments

Check if the RTF template uses a different font in Production.
Some fonts handle decimal points differently, causing unexpected formatting issues.

2.Locale & Number Formatting Settings

Verify if regional settings (e.g., number formats) differ between Test and Production.
Try explicitly setting the number format in the RTF template using:
xml

<?format-number:FIELD_NAME;'999,999.99'?>

3. BI Publisher Version Differences

If Test and Production are running different BI Publisher versions, rendering behavior may vary.

4. Bursting-Specific Formatting Issues

Since the issue occurs only in bursted reports, test the report without bursting to see if formatting remains correct.
If the issue disappears, the problem may be related to bursting output settings.
