Document Template Source Engine?

Looking to see if anyone has knowledge of the engine Quickbase is using in the Document Template (Doc Gen) feature? 

Reason: We are hand editing the source to gain control over the layout. Each time we paste our edited and functional HTML into the Source window and save, the Document Template engine modifies the HTML. When we print the Template the layout does not meet end User requirements.

If we know what Quickbase is using, we can read the documentation and learn what HTML is allowed. It is obvious the HTML engine is not compliant with HTML5 and we are struggling.

We are chasing our tails. Any ideas ... aside from using a third party solution.

    I have a support ticket open with Quickbase, they won't tell me what they are using to render the source code. I cannot research what is allowed and what is not allowed. They are telling me they "sanitize" some elements. What does that mean in terms of which elements are allowed and not allowed?
