Report Gen introduces random spaces

[jupeos]

Anyone else experiencing this? I can give more detail if you don't find my description clear enough.

Very annoying since this is a feature that I am relying on to create a requirements document. I just purchased EA9.0 under the naive assumption that doc generation actually worked.

For a product that has been around this length of time this is unacceptable. From other posts it sounds like this is definitely a flakey part of EA.

Please do not respond by suggesting I re-structure my requirements in terms of packaging\ sub-packaging. I should be able to structure it however I like and still generate a reliable report.

Symptoms:
Generate rtf on requirements package with sub packages and requirements.

The requirements for sub-packages have one or more or NO additional spaces between the last character and penultimate character.

e.g.
One space...
- The user shall adjust the scale on the x axi s
Multiple spaces....
- Analysis info shall be associated with each Recor    d

I agree that the report generator creates to much white space that cannot be controlled.
In particular (906):

1. When a note finishes with a list there is always an extra newline added.
(I was sure I had reported that as a bug and been told it was fixed, but I can't find my correspondence)

2. EA appears to generally hide the [highlight]SSBookmark[/highlight] tag lines, and the trailing newline character, ie the lines highlighted in the image below

But, IMHO =EA should also hide the newline for all inserted elements that are 'empty'. Eg the notes lines highlighted in the image below.

Note the new lines for Images, Names should also be suppressed if empty.
