Hi Hayley,

You're right — in Quickbase, Rich Text fields often display differently than Standard Text fields when printed, especially in templates. That’s because Rich Text doesn’t automatically match the app’s default font.

To fix it:

  1. Edit the Rich Text field
    In Quickbase, go to Settings > Fields, select your Rich Text field, and either edit the default value or test it in a record.
  2. Wrap the content in this HTML:Replace Arial and 12pt with the font and size used in your Standard Text fields.
  3. html<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;"> Your content here </div>
  4. CopyEdit
  5. Save and print your form or template
    The Rich Text should now match the Standard Text styling.

If you’re using a print template in Quickbase, you can also apply styles at the top of the template using <style> tags

Hope this gives you a place to start. Let us know if works. thx!
