RTF Export with Mailmerge

edited February 2011 in General
Hi

i've got a strange problem.

Template RTF file contains font-name "Times New Roman", font-size: 11.

Changed the ppRichText font- Times New Roman - size 11.

export to dtDoc or dtRTF gives me sometimes an file font-name Times New
Roman - font-size 15, and a wrong layout of the page.

I'am using mailmerge.

    When the RTF-template isn't Read-Only the problem isn't there.

    Does Report Builder write something into the template?

    Hi Desiree,

    As I mentioned before in your previous post, simply setting the font of the
    ppRichText will not change the font inside the RichText itself. You either
    need to save the RTF data with the smaller font or you need to use the
    richtext properties to do so in code. See SelText and TextAttributes in the
    RB help.
