I'm using Primefaces 5.3 in a web app along with the Primefaces <p:editor>
which saves its data to a database table. I would like to export/print to PDF the value data from the database with the format being ready instead of printing out codes like
<br>
or <ul> <li>
, etc.
I'm using Jasper reports to create the report and then exporting to pdf, so I need to create "something" that can be printed with jasper reports that will take care of the html codes.

You can use the HtmlComponent <hc:html/>
Example
<componentElement>
<reportElement x="0" y="100" width="230" height="110" backcolor="#ADD8E6" uuid="332dd551-e8cd-4cb0-a11f-7325f481017b"/>
<hc:html xmlns:hc="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/htmlcomponent" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/htmlcomponent http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/htmlcomponent.xsd" scaleType="FillFrame" horizontalAlign="Left" verticalAlign="Top">
<hc:htmlContentExpression><![CDATA["Hello<br/>World"]]></hc:htmlContentExpression>
</hc:html>
</componentElement>
It will generate an image of your html.
