Editor - Export to Pdf Table widths in % does not render as expected

[Piyushkumar]

Hi All,

My user is having Html content having width set in % for TD. But when it is exported to pdf, it does not render it as per % set. It defaults to Total table width / no of TD.

<table style="width:100%;">
<tr>
   <td style="width:10%;">No</td>
   <td style="width:70%;">Full Name</td>
   <td style="width:20%;">Telephone</td>
</tr>
</table>

It displays <table> with all TDs having equal width i.e. 33% appx.

Thanks in advance for all replies.

Hello,

I have the same problem, I'm using RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX Q2 2011 SP1. When I export to PDF all columns are of equal widths. Please help.

<table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="100%" style="font-family: Lucida Sans; font-size: 9pt;">
                    <tr style="text-align:center;">
                        <td style="width:50%; white-space:nowrap;">PRODUCT NAME AND CLASSIFICATION</td>
                        <td style="width:7%; white-space:nowrap;">GROSS </td>
                        <td style="width:7%; white-space:nowrap;">NET </td>
                        <td style="width:7%; white-space:nowrap;">AMOUNT</td>
                        <td style="width:7%; white-space:nowrap;">QUANTITY</td>
                        <td style="width:7%; white-space:nowrap;">STORE</td>
                        <td style="width:7%; white-space:nowrap;">CODE</td>
                        <td style="width:7%; white-space:nowrap;">SHELF</td>
                    </tr>
                </table>

Hi,

The Export to PDF filter of RadEditor  does not support width values in percents. This is limitation of the third party exporter tool. Unfortunately, this is a complex task, the implementation of which will require huge efforts and time that we can use to implement new controls or fix more important bugs. That is why this problem is not logged with high priority and I could not provide a firm estimate when it will be fixed.

To export the columns, the width style property should be applied to the col elements, e.g.

<table style="margin: 0pt auto; width: 430px; clear: both;">
<colgroup><col style="width: 220px;" /><col style="width: 120px;" /><col style="width: 60px;" /><col style="width: 30px;" /></colgroup>
<thead>
<tr>
<th style="width: 220px; background-color: #ebf1dd;">Browser/OS</th>
<th style="width: 120px; background-color: #ebf1dd;">Windows</th>
<th style="width: 60px; background-color: #ebf1dd;">Mac OS</th>
<th style="width: 30px; background-color: #ebf1dd;">Linux</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>dasdsadas asd adsasdas dasdasdasd</td>
<td>das dasdas dasda sdasdasdas</td>
<td>das </td>
<td>das</td>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>
