RTF in DBText occasionally shows font name

rbuser

Hello!

We've been having issues with RTF text in the DBText controls. Sometimes
the RTF text is displayed with the font name. We think it might be linked
to the font name having more than one space. Here are some examples of RTF
text that is displayed correctly and incorrectly.

CORRECT:

We use Delphi 2009 and Report Builder 14.08. We'd appreciate any help as to
why Report Builder shows the font name occasionally when displaying the RTF
text through DBText.

Thanks,

Hi Farran,

I'm a bit unclear about what you are trying to accomplish. Are you
displaying RTF source in your report? Where is the RTF source coming from?

Note that a DBText object will simply display the text it is given. Are
you using a DBRichText component by chance?

I'm also unable to see offhand how the correct and incorrect RTF is
different. The top one appears to only have the fonts in a different
order which should not affect the output.
