The word doc which has the format lost

If the Birt report has text in multilines with bold, italic and underline and strickthru formating and if it happens to be the first items in a line THE REPORT SHOWS FINE IN REPORT VIEWER but when exportd to MSDOC will lose the format. See the attachment

Hi Ashok,

Could you please attache the report design here? I can not analyse the report item type just according to the doc output you attached.

BTW, which BIRT release version were you using?
Comment 2 Ashok Kumar CLA 2011-02-18 15:21:55 EST 
Ours is very sepcific report. So not sure if it is usable or not . Any way I am attaching it. I think if you create a feld whihc has text html formating like bold as the very first content this can be reproduced. We can reproduce in any of the 100 reports we have as long as the field has content as I have mentioned.

Our version is 2.3.2.

I can reproduced this issue in 2.3.2 release. The bold format will be lost if it appears in the first line of html text.

But I can not reproduce this issue in the later 2.5.0 release and latest 2.6.2 build. Marked as fixed.
