DOCX table:
Generated PDF table:
Hi everyone,
I’m using the PDF from DOCX plugin to generate a PDF from my DOCX template. The issue I’m facing is that the table formatting is not preserved in the generated PDF.
In the DOCX file, long text (e.g., email addresses) wraps correctly inside the table cell and does not overflow. However, in the generated PDF, the same text overflows outside the table cell, even though the DOCX appears perfectly formatted.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? Is there a workaround or specific table formatting that the plugin requires so the PDF output respects cell boundaries?
Thanks in advance!

DOCX renders correctly, but the plugin's PDF conversion doesn't preserve the wrapping. In Word table properties, set table layout to "Fixed" (not "Auto")Set exact column widths in cm/inches (not percentages)Ensure "Allow row to break across pages" is checked
AFAIK, The plugin's PDF engine ignores Word's auto-layout. Fixed widths force it to wrap text properly.
