When creating a new text field, admins can enable the Rich Text Format option, which saves the field as a text box that allows that allows users to:
- Apply headings, bold, italic, underline, or strikethrough formatting.
- Apply left, right, or center text alignment.
- Create and continue numbered and bulleted (ordered and unordered) lists.
- Embed URLs.
- Enter up to 20,000 characters of text.
- Enable a focused view of the text editor.
RTF can be applied and/or is displayed on configurable forms, data grids, report tables, repeatable forms, printed forms or reports, and reports exported into Word, Excel, or PDF format. To enable RTF, select the Rich Text Format option when creating the field.
 | When printing a form or report with RTF from your browser, note that some formatting is not preserved or displayed as expected. For the best results, it's recommended that RTF data is printed from a report exported into PDF format. If the data is on a configurable form, it can be displayed through the repeatable form element, then exported into PDF. |
