Retaining "Text with Formatting" field formatting in Email module

Question

Has anyone managed to keep the formatting (like bullets and numbers) from a “text with formatting” field when it’s transferred into the body of an email module?

I am returning the below when the email has been sent. I am using the HTML content type option.

Our team wants to bullet or number key information and ensure that this formatting is preserved when it appears in the email.

Throwing out a workaround for others that may need formatting in their email. I reverted back to using a paragraph field. Within the email module content area, I used the

html tags around the field to be able to retain formatting from the paragraph field. After doing a few quick tests, numbering and lettering seems to be the cleanest and most organized compared to copied and pasted in bullets.

Ehm...breaking it to you gently @kierstenkollins,

The GOOD: We hit a similar request a couple of years ago when we added the ability to interpret the "block" format shown above and honor it as intended (i.e. with bullets, italics, etc.) in our Magic Reports solutions, but

The BAD: Although well structured, the block format did not appear (at least last at that time) to have any translation libraries available (at all...let alone Fusion specific), so

The UGLY: we wrote our own, as I'd expect you'd need to do, too

Regards,

Doug
