Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new structure
2. Create a template with the code of the attached txt
3. configure WCM to use workflow
4. Create an article WITHOUT SUMMARY
5. Go to my workflow tasks and click on "Assing to my roles" tab

Expected: You see a plain text (see the attached image)

Current: You see a text with a lot of unexpected spaces

 

This is produced because the jsp is processing the template as plain text  so each line brek of the html is been traduced to a \n and this is rendered as <br>
