Reactive icon
Forge asset by Leonardo Fernandes

how can i preview a html from ultimate pdf? because when generating, on reactive APP, ultimate PDF is adding a blank space in a table (between the last line and the tfooter of the table) this space does not exist the blank space... and if I print directly from the screen or on the screen. 

Can someone help me on how to see the CSS/HTML that ultimate pdf is injecting into my file?

Thanks

Hi Mariana.

Ultimate PDF doesn't add any CSS to your page, other than the CSS from the PrintLayout block, if you're using it. It does have a fairly complex rendering where it renders partial PDFs and recombines them into a final PDF. But the output should be very similar to printing from the screen preview in your Google Chrome browser.

To diagnose what might be happening, can I ask you to install Ultimate PDF Management, and get an execution log? This will output a zip file containing logs and input/output files. Please share the input.html and all pdf files inside of the zip.

hello, thanks for the answer!

Our problem is: we are using a table with a line with the tag  the table is dynamic...

When it grows and is longer than one page, the footer is repeated (on the first page and at the end of the table)

On the first page, it adds a space (which we don't want); but at the end of the table it is correct - glued to the table.

ultimate pdf version: 5.0.3 - (because client OutSystems UI version)

What version of Ultimate PDF management can we use for this ultimate PDF version?

Is this issue already resolved in newer versions of ultimate PDF?

Is there any solution that can point me to the problem?

Attached an image,

Thanks.

Hi Mariana. You should install Ultimate PDF Management Version 1.0.2 and it should be compatible with your environment.

You can try updating to the chrome revision 1083080, which has improved table rendering.


Note that Ultimate PDF does not depend on OutSystems UI directly, only the screen templates do. You can upgrade to the latest Ultimate PDF version, then only UltimatePDF_Template module will have broken references, which you can deal with in a variety of ways - from fixing the broken references manually to deleting the UltimatePDF_Template module altogether if you don't need it.
