    I'm using the paragraph form element and it's cutting off my text (preview and edit modes). How can I fix this?

    I cloned this form https://form.jotform.com/211446723639156, but the text is already truncated.

    Can you please share to the entire text you are trying to add into the paragraph field? There might be some characters that is being removed or the characters might have exceed the limit. Let us know the text you have added so we can check.

    When I click on the paragraph, the entire text is still there. "Note: Services should be for the current fiscal year only. If an informal contract (<$25,000) was issued, attach a copy with this form. Semi-formal and formal contracts are sent to central accounting by the PW Purchasing Specialist. "

    Upon checking, our paragraph field is stripping off value after the greater than < character. This is due to a security feature that is why all text after < will be stripped off. To fix this, add \ in front of the < symbol. Here's the entire text.

    "Note: Services should be for the current fiscal year only. If an informal contract (\< 25,000) was issued, attach a copy with this form. Semi-formal and formal contracts are sent to central accounting by the PW Purchasing Specialist.
