FAQ

What is the difference between a rich text field and a text field?

1. A text field is mainly for plain text input.
2. A rich text field supports formatting such as bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, headings, lists, links, and images.
3. If you need structured long-form content inside a cell, use a rich text field.

How do I manage images inserted in a rich text field?

1. Images inserted in the rich text editor are embedded in the cell content.
2. This setup is not ideal for bulk export or centralized asset management.
3. If you need to manage image files in one place, use the Image and Attachment field instead.

Why is the original formatting missing after export?

1. When you export to Excel or CSV, the rich text field keeps only plain text.
2. Formatting such as bold, color, and links is not preserved in the exported file.
3. If you need to keep the original layout for reference, keep the original multidimensional table alongside the export.
