[SOLVED] Display/Rendering of HTML text retrieved from database

I'm in the process of evaluating the feasibility of a couple things on a reporting wish list.

One issues involves the ability to retrieve is render HTML text from a database. I tried this out by including HTML in some SQL results.

The HTML was correctly read and displayed in HTML and Active HTML. I specifically plugged in an HTML table and a couple < a > links in the cells. The tables was displayed as a table and the links functioned as links.

The same HTML was rendered as plain text in the PDF output.

Is there a way to have the HTML rendered in a PDF report?

Again, I'm just investigating the situation (not trying to fix a bug, problem, etc) but if you've had experience with something similar, I'd appreciate hearing about it.
