HTML special characters

The HTML specification includes character sequences for specifying special characters. When you include HTML special characters in a study component definition file, the MedML Installer utility passes the characters along to the database, and they are retrieved and processed by the forms rendering component of the InForm application.

The following special character definitions are supported by the PDF output format, in which the InForm Data Export utility exports printable CRFs.
