Thanks for having a look at this.
I agree that the HTML formating is not that important for the moment but
the missing line breaks make the runtime on the printout almost useless.
Do you think it would be possible to keep the line breaks while removing
the HTML?

Meanwhile I also found the "other" option to print the runtime directly
from the planner window. Using this option the format is good save the
last line with funny characters (see attachment). But it doesn't support
the feature to have dive graph plus runtime in one printout.

Yes, freshwater. I use to set my dive computers to standard 1.02kg/l for
both freshwater and saltwater. Too lazy to always change this. So I for
sure should plan also with 1.02kg/l.

Unfortunately playing with this showed me another issue in Subsurface:
Neither altitude nor salinity selected in the planner are saved
correctly into the divelog file.
So if I for my dive:
- Set to 400m/1.02kg/l
- Save dive in planner and exit planner
- Save logbook file
- Close Subsurface
- Restart Subsurface
- Edit dive in planner
--> Values are reset to 0m/1.03kg/l


Best regards
Stefan
