The reporter package supports four types of output: TXT, RTF, PDF, and HTML. The package produces TXT reports by default. If you want to produce RTF, PDF, or HTML 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.
