When you turn on the Rich Text Formatting option in a Long Text Field, you are limited in the Page Design Block.
First of all, it is not possible to change the typefont, neither is it possible to change the font size. It is understandable that you cannot make the text bold, italic and so on, because that is what you do in the field itself. But, the font size and fonttype can not be change in the field itself. So, what is it gonna be: add features in the Long Field, or add them in the Block area?

André

Hi @Andre_Zijlstra,

The page designer block has been updated to support text formatting of long text cells w/ rich text enabled, including font, size, weight, & line height. Hopefully this gives some more flexibility with displaying rich text content in page designer!

I’m using the page designer to produce quotes and invoices. I have a table to display the line items on the quote/invoice, with columns for Category, Description, Quantity, Units, Unit Price, and Total Price.

My Description field uses rich text but the rich text is not working in the table.

Rich text fields show up in Page Designer correctly but only if you do it with a "Fields from your table" option ✅ (see image on left)

But: Rich text doesn't work propely if you use it within a static element eg {field}
(see image on right)

This means that combining fields for a use case where you have the the Title of something, followed by a year that thing was done, won't work unless you manually create a new field. This can be achieved by a formula field and an automation, though can't quite figure that out...
