Hi All, Didn't fin help on Advanced PDF channel, hence posting a pdf related question here. I have a search result accessed in an Advanced PDF template, where a PO description contains a set of special characters. The description used is something like:- SERIES MID DRIVE CONVEYOR, 6" WIDE X 1'-.6" LONG WITH DRIVE SHAFT IN POSITION A, LOW SIDE PROFILE. As soon as the freemarker language encountered a double quote ("), it escaped and shifted the rest of the text from "LOW SIDE PROFILE" into the next <td>. Can any1 help me in making the freemarker to understand not to escape the data and print the string as it is in the record? Note: i tried : ?no_esc ?j_string ?html ?esc ?markup_string but none of them work. Please suggest a valid way to fix this issue.

You can try to use the html definition of the character "

id try the opposite and escape your input

@battk the input comes from a saved search, and hence i access the direct search results as ${result.memo}

${result.memo?xml}

ok let me give it a try

is the pdf generated by suitescript

Can you try rendering as HTML instead of PDF? You may be able to see more clearly what is happening to the string that way by inspecting the HTML output.

@battk no it an Adavnced PDF/HTML Template created in UI and linked to type as "Saved Search". (Basically for printing the saved search results using the pdf template configured).

Of course. What I meant was to change the print setting to HTML, rather than PDF. Then you can use your browser to inspect the output more easily (unless you have already tried that).

@scottvonduhn: Can you please let me know where to do this print setting? im using Chrome broswer.

It's a NetSuite preference. Go to Home > Set Preferences > Transactions, then check the box next to "Print Using HTML"

@scottvonduhn: Thanks for the field help. But this didn't work in my case as my print template comes from a Saved Search and not transaction form. As per the field help: Clear this check box if you prefer to print transactions forms in PDF format. Printing PDF forms requires Acrobat Reader. Check this box to print transaction forms in HTML format.

Okay, your right it won't affect saved search templates. I can't recall if there is an easy way to print as HTML for those or not.
