Hi, I'm able to bring over the text entry into the email body but it loses all formatting and merges into one long line of continuous text. Does anybody know how to bring over the formatted texts/keep the paragraphs?

Any help is appreciated. TIA :) 

My current JS - 

var player = GetPlayer();
var email='';
var user = player.GetVar("UserName") ;
var text = player.GetVar("TextEntry") ;
var subject = "Journal Exercise Notes" ;
console.log("mailto: "+user+" | "+text)
var emailBody = player.GetVar("TextEntry");
var mailto_link = 'mailto: '+email+'?subject='+subject+'&body='+emailBody;
win = window.open(mailto_link, 'emailWin') ;
