We our currently trying to convert several of our reports from Crystal to Telerik.  On several of our reports, we have a retrieve a data item from the database that contains HTML markup.  Is there any way to preserve that markup and have it displayed on the report?  

textbox:       [=Fields.userProfileInfo]

In Crystal, we had a property that identified the input text format and so it was rendered properly.
ie: Text Format - crHTMLText or crStandardText

Thanks you,

Hi Daniel,

Currently Telerik Reporting does not operate with HTML content. Exception is when the report is rendered in HTML because the browser that usually displays the report, handles the HTML itself. Unfortunately the rest of the supported formats - Image (GDI), PDF, XLS, RTF do not support HTML out of the box, which means that we have to render the HTML on our side. We are currently looking for possible ways to implement our own HTML rendering in most of the supported export formats and we find a feasible way to do this, we would definitely share this with the community either in blog post or in our RoadMap.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for the understanding.

Sincerely yours,
Steve
