address data print new line

[Cheng Chee Kean]

My address data return on the pdf report like below.

No 99, street1\r\nstreet 2.

i would like to print to new line. i tried write a function to replace the \r\n to <br />.

function replace(value){
var result = value.replace(/\r\n/, "<br />");
return result;
}

but it return No 99, street1<br />street 2 instead print new line.

anyone can help? I want the address to show like below

No 99, street1
street2

Thanks in advance

The replace function seems good solution. You perhaps just need to use triple brackets to avoid handlebars html escaping

{{{foo}}}

And how would you do this using chrome-pdf engine?

hi @silverWeaver, for chrome it should be the same, you need a helper function that handles the conversion from new line character (\r\n) to html line break <br />.

if you need more help, replicate your template and data on the playground and share it back in this topic
