RichText pdf export quality

Hello all,

I'm trying to create a report where part of a sentence is bold and it seems that the regular Text object does not support it. So I tried the RichText object, and sure enough, I can get the bold effect that I want.
However, there is one problem with this:
The RTF text is output as an image which quality is quite poor with respect to the rest of the of the report. This makes the text look choppy inside the PDF export as well as the print result when printing the PDF file.
I do not have such poor quality with the regular Text export.
Is there a way to control the quality level of the RichText control ?
If yes, how?
If no, is there a way to have the regular Text control display parts of its content in bold?

Thanks in advance

    it supports a limited number of html tags.
    set the allowhtmltags property to true.
    read the user manual under creating reports to see which ones are supported.

    Ah yes, thanks, I missed that property.
    However, I tried it and it does the same as the RTF control, it renders as an image. The quality is a bit better, but still not up to what I get when it is not rendered as an image inside the PDF.
    Ah well, I'll have to live with it then.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
