[reportlab-users] Preformatted class with text wrapping and line breaks

[Chris Wilson]

Hi,

I have some text that I wish to display in a table cell. This text has 
line breaks in it placed there using \n characters. Originally I was 
using this text with the Paragraph class but the line breaks were not 
appearing in the text. I then started using the the Preformatted class 
to display the text with line breaks included. The problem is, where the 
text is wider than the border of the table, instead of wrapping as it 
did when in a Paragraph, the text simply runs over the border of the table.

Is it possible to either:
     Force a Paragraph object to obey \n line breaks (or some form of 
inline line break)? or,
     Force Preformatted (or XPreformatted) object to wrap when placed 
within a table?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
