Insert line break into a word document that was populated

Hello!

 

I have an app with a multiline text box. And when I insert text there, I press enter and insert some more texts. And when that text gets on my list, it's still with the line break. But when I generate the word file and convert to PDF, the line break disappears, and it's all together. Does anyone know how to keep the line break, from the moment I do the popular template to the conversion into pdf?

 

My flow:

    Hi @Anonymous 

    please check your Word Template again. Do you use the plain text content control? If so, please check if you selected the following option within the properties:

    Otherwise you will not see any line breaks. You wouldn't need to change anything within Power Automate, just make this change and put in the value from SharePoint as it is.

     

    Does this help you? Otherwise please give me some more information.

    Best regards
    Marvin
