 I have a section at the beginning of my Module for Glossary Terms which I've embedded in a text artifact. However, when published using RPE, all the DIVs and SPANs create a lot of extra carriage returns. Can anyone suggest some JAvaScript/REGEX that could remove these?


Example content below:
<field:valuefield:type="richtext">
<div>
<div>
<div>
<pdir="ltr"id="_1627564729562">
<span> </span>
<spanclass="com-ibm-rdm-editor-EmbeddedResourceDecorator showContent">
<span>
<div>
<pid="_1627555665830">[MY TEXT 1]</p>
</div>
</div>
</span>
</span>
<span>  </span>
</p>
<pdir="ltr"id="_1627564729563">
<span> </span>
<spanclass="com-ibm-rdm-editor-EmbeddedResourceDecorator showContent">
<span>
<div>
<pid="_1627555650276">[MY TEXT 2]</p>
</div>
</div>
</span>
</span>
<span>  </span>
</p>

[MY TEXT 1] <o:p> </o:p>

   

  <o:p> </o:p>

  <o:p> </o:p>

 Glyn,


Do not modify it in the report. There is easier way.

Could you please check the following:

-go in rm/admin >> Advanced Properties

-look for the settings: publish.removePublishSpaceGenerators

-What is its current value?


-If it is set to false, please set it to true, save the modification.

Perfect! Spent ages trying to do something myself in REGEX... why isn't this the default? Oh well. 


Thank you!

 Yes, indeed good question why isn't this the default. I lost a bit time to find it too.
