Rich Text Editor field
The Rich Text Editor input field allows the end user to apply basic formatting to the entered text. Such
as: bold, italic, underline, alignment options and lists.
The entered data is converted into a RTF file. The user input field will contain the path to the
RTF file. The PrintShop Mail document should have a variable with the TEXT_FILE() expression.
The value parameter of this expression should state the name of the user input data field, e.g.
TEXT_FILE([Specification]). For more information about the TEXT_FILE() expression refer to the
PrintShop Mail User Guide.
