When exporting documents to Text format, escape characters are shown within the output.
Running the following
[CmdletBinding()]
param (
[System.String[]] $Format = 'Text',
[System.String] $Path = "$env:USERPROFILE\documents",
[System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter] $PassThru
)
Import-Module PScribo -Force -Verbose:$false
$example17 = Document -Name 'PScribo Example 17' {

To create a multi-row table from hashtables, simply create a collection/
array of ordered hashtables.
NOTE: You must ensure that the hashtable keys are the same on all hashtables
in the collection/array as only the first object is enumerated.
The following example creates an table with a three rows from an array of
ordered hashtables.
#>
$hashtableArray = @(
[Ordered] @{ 'Column 1' = 'Some random text'; 'Column2' = 345; 'Custom Property' = $true; }
[Ordered] @{ 'Column 1' = 'Random some text'; 'Column2' = 16; 'Custom Property' = $false; }
[Ordered] @{ 'Column 1' = 'Text random some'; 'Column2' = 1GB; 'Custom Property' = $true; }
)
Table -Hashtable $hashtableArray -List -Key 'Column 1' -ColumnWidths 20, 40, 40
}
$example17 | Export-Document -Path $Path -Format $Format -PassThru:$PassThru
will result in
�[32;1mColumn 1 Column2 Custom Property�[0m
�[32;1m-------- ------- ---------------�[0m
Some random text 345 True
Random some text 16 False
Text random some 1073741824 True
This issue appears in PScribo versions 0.9.1
and 0.10.0

Using the sample provided, I'm unable to duplicate this behavior. I ran the sample code on Server 2019 using both PowerShell Desktop 5.1 and PowerShell Core 7.3.1 with identical results.
@tpcarman Can you please confirm?

That's weird (but good). I don't seem to have the issue anymore.
