Stephen,

I’m now wondering if I misunderstood your original message.  Do you have EAD 
stored in ASpace, which is being converted to HTML in the PUI PDF process, and 
it’s then printed out as HTML tags rather than being formatted?  If that’s the 
case, that should definitely be fixed in the PUI core code!  Also, if you could 
provide an example of how the data is recorded in the staff interface, that 
would be really helpful, as Christine mentioned (and sorry I didn’t see her 
note before I sent my first message).

Stephen,

It looks like you’re using HTML elements there (e.g. span and q), and although 
the new PUI PDF process converts the ASpace JSON to HTML which is in turn 
converted to PDF, I don’t think that it expects to find HTML tags.  Given that 
this process is converting to HTML anyway, though, I’d assume that it would be 
pretty easy to update that process to keep all of the formatting as expected.  
But you won’t get the same results when creating a PDF from the staff 
interface, since that process currently converts the ASpace JSON to EAD which 
is in turn converted to PDF, and the EAD to PDF process only expects to have to 
process EAD elements.

Also, if you ever export the EAD, or migrate the data to another system that’s 
not expecting HTML to be part of the archival data, you’ll need to transform 
those HTML elements to something else.  In our local instance, by policy we 
permit only EAD elements in ASpace for that very reason.

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Customizing the Public Interface PDF

I have a further question regarding the PUI PDF processing. We have just 
implemented v2.2.0 which is working very well, but have encountered  a problem 
with the PDF generated from the Print button. The PDF includes a lot of EAD 
tags for formatting such as:

The Holloway Press Launch. Includes copy of <span class="italic emph">The
University of Auckland News</span> article &quot;Press keeps alive
traditional printing techniques&quot;, published in Vol. 24, No. 10, Nov/Dec
1994, p 27., Oct 1994


Instead of:



The Holloway Press Launch. Includes copy of The University of Auckland News 
article "Press keeps alive traditional printing techniques", published in Vol. 
24, No. 10, Nov/Dec 1994, p 27.


This seems to be a similar issue to AR-1851. Should I post a new ticket?

Regards,

Stephen Innes
