APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
You work with IBM SPSS Statistics 19 or 20 and use the Python Integration Essentials for the corresponding Statistics version. From the SPSS Community on IBM DeveloperWorks you downloaded and installed the TEXT extension command. Then you create a formatted HTML text block as in the example below: TEXT "<html>" "<p>first line" "<br><br><b>second</b> line" "<p>last line" "</html>" /OUTLINE TITLE="title". The text block appears correctly in the Viewer but if you export the result as PDF file the title of the block appears, but the body is completely missing. When you export a Word doc the block contents appear, but at least some of the formatting is lost. In particular, the bolded text appears without the bolding. When you export to HTML the text appears, but the line breaks are lost. This issue was reported to IBM SPSS Development.
