Convert HTML in Sharepoint "Rich Text" Column to Word's "Rich Text"

[sarahpoulin]

I have created a Power App where when I enter strings into a field, it is entered into a Sharepoint List, which then triggers a Flow. Then it copies those columns over to a Sharepoint library, and enters the data into content controls in a docx template, then converts it to pdf. More information can be found here (I followed that tutorial).

The problem is, one of the fields in my Power App needs to be rich text because I need line breaks and indents. It shows up in the Sharepoint List column as html. But apparently Word's rich text is different than the rich text that is in a field in a browser (html). I have searched for solutions, but I don't understand any of them. Can someone please explain to me how I can convert the rich text html to Word's version of rich text so that I can get the line breaks and indents in Word to show up? I don't know if it's something that I have to do in Word, or if it's something that I have to do in Power Automate?

Here is an example of what is showing up in word:

<p style="margin-left:40px">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.,<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; Suspendisse commodo ultricies sem, non volutpat est congue ut.<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; Donec sed nisl eros.<br />Vestibulum tincidunt diam in fringilla varius.<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; Praesent eget tellus in orci scelerisque convallis.<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; Donec et nisl semper, rhoncus purus et, cursus erat.<br />Curabitur aliquam ligula vel turpis eleifend, a cursus erat pulvinar.<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; Pellentesque interdum lacinia lacus ut convallis.<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos himenaeos.</p>

Hello @sarahpoulin 

Is there a reason that you must use Word as a way to get a PDF?

It is possible to just create an HTML file and if that fits your needs, then from HTML to PDF can be done using OneDrive "Convert file".

Kind regards, John

I did what @JohnAageAnderse suggested. I created a HTML in a compose action, containing all the HTML, CSS and JS that I needed. After that you can either convert to PDF with another connector or you could manually print it from within the broswer
