Output to RTF, PDF, HTML, and DOCX
The reporter package supports four types of output:
TXT, RTF, PDF, HTML, and DOCX. The package produces TXT reports by
default. If you want to produce RTF, PDF, HTML, or DOCX output, simply
change the output type. Below is the summary table with stub example
from above, the only change being that the output_type is
now set to RTF.
