PDF Output Rendering Issues: Table and Note Spanning Across Pages

[Amit+007appviewx]

Hi Team
Greetings!!
I'm encountering issues in the generated PDF output, listed below:

• When a table spans across 2 pages, the top border is missing on the second page.
  Table-1.png
  Table-2.png

• When a table row spans 2 pages, the bottom border on the current page disappears, along with the top border on the next page.
  Table-3.png
  Table-4.png

• When the 'Note' spans 2 pages, it should relocate entirely to the new page rather than splitting across.

Please advise on the necessary CSS adjustments.
Thank you

Hi,
For tables and notes span problem you can use these CSS rules:

Code: Select all

/* Note span */
[class~="topic/note"]{
    page-break-inside:avoid;
}

/* Tables span */
*[class~="topic/row"]:has(*[class~="topic/entry"][rowspan]){
    page-break-before: avoid;
    page-break-after: avoid;
}

Regards,
Andrei

Hi again,
I manage to reproduce the problem if I remove the table header.
Please remove from the CSS rules that I have you :has(*[class~="topic/entry"][rowspan]).
In order to avoid the page-break in tables the CSS rule should look like this:

Code: Select all

*[class~="topic/row"]{
    page-break-before: avoid;
    page-break-after: avoid;
}

Andrei

Hi Team
The solution given above is not working as expected.
There are some issues seen after making this change.
For Example: Table border missing on the existing page.

Hi,
Could you please send the CSS files with your customizations and a portion of your documentation files to our email support (support@oxygenxml.com)? I would like to debug the issue you are facing.
If your DITA documents contain some sensitive content, you can randomize it by using Oxygen's Help > Support Tools > Randomize XML text content option.
Create a copy of your DITA structure before doing this operation as the randomizing cannot be reverted.

Andrei

Hi Team,
Thank you for your prompt response and willingness to assist.
I'll send the CSS files with our customizations and a portion of the documentation to support@oxygenxml.com shortly. Regarding sensitive content, I'll ensure to randomize it using Oxygen's Help > Support Tools > Randomize XML text content option before sending it over.
Prior to randomization, I'll create a backup of the DITA structure to avoid any loss of information.
Appreciate your help in resolving this matter.

Best regards,
