Formatting of Tables Not Aligned When Saved in Laserfiche

Forms
Updated May 26, 2016
asked on February 3, 2016

We have a Forms process that has a form with multiple tables in it. The tables vary in length. After the tables are muli-line text fields that can vary in length as well. When the form is finally saved into the repository the values in the table columns or overlaying the multi-line text fields. It does not happen with every table, but some. See a screenshot below. Does anyone have any ideas on how to correct this?

Hi Blake,

Did you check the form in View Submission, whether text overlaps?

When I pull up the instance and view the submissions from there it does not show text overlapping.

What if you change the form width to a smaller one, will it have overlapping in the view submission page? If not, can you send us your process, and we'll take a look.

I'm not really able to change the width currently because the form is actively being used and making the width smaller would make the form extremely long and hard to read. I will email an export of the process to you.

Mine does the same thing it has the table column names overlapping with data

Hi there, you can try using a copied form in STR task with a fixed width (e.g. 800px) and see whether duplicate still shows up.

I tried that but I think it is more a length issue as my look-up rule generated table is longer than one page the column headings repeat on the second page

Hi Aaron, 

You are right. the column name will overlap with the data when the generated table is longer than one page; and this is a known issue with wkhtmltopdf, but not a bug in Forms.

Maybe you can try the solution in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24648383/wkhtmltopdf-repeating-thead-headers-overlapping-content ;

I tested using the solution in the link and just added the CSS rule in the form:

tr { page-break-inside: avoid; }

Then all things will work well when save to repository.
