Generating PDF reports that contain HTMLtags
2 answers
When I generate PDF reports that list Test Plan Details, the document generated contains the HTML tags for line breaks <BR> and various other formatting tags. Is there any way to configure RQM to NOT include these tags?
The PDF print is not meant to show these tags. My guess is that the content you are trying to print was initially copied and pasted into RQM from MS Word (or some other MS Office application). We have encountered a number of issues when certain types of content (tables, images, lists, etc) are copied from MS Word into RQM.
Just a few defects tracking these issues:

Basically the problem is that the XML that is inserted when coming from MS Word is not understood by the XML parser we are using to print the PDFs so it is being passed through as plain text. We are actively working to resolve these issues.
Are these related issues known too?

- Double-quote character in an imported requirement appears as an upside down question mark. This actually occurred during the import of the requirement, not the printing. Is there a way around his?
Bullets are no displaying properly - they are displaying as HTML (this appears to be the same issue and the one reported in this thread, correct?)
Blank lines which appear in the Introduction in the Test case don't show as blank lines in the PDF.
