HTM with embedded content in { }

Question

Has anyone tried to make use of the embedded content function in the HTML file type? I have a file, where beside the html code such content is included:

ESG Report{% if preview %} - Preview{% endif %}

As the complete text would perfectly work with HTML, I would like simply to exclude the { } content. So I just assumed, I add this to plain text (I added {{1,2}.*?}{1,2} as inline tag) in the embedded content processors and activate that in the html parser, but id does not work. So what I am doing wrong here?

 Hard to tell with such a sparse description of what you did. I tested this and it works fine so this is what I did. First I set up the embedded content rule: 
 
 Then I edited the embedded content plan text filetype like this: 
 
 See if that helps.

Hi Jerzy Czopik 
 Helps to see your file :-) 
 Try something like this: 
 
 And I changed the rule to this: 
 
 {{.+?}}|{.+?} 
 Seemed cleaner. It's not perfect but I'm sure you'll be able to finish it off from here. The only stuff you can't handle is the crap at the top which shouldn't really be there anyway so you'd have to simply lock those segments.
