The easiest way to create a table in a PDF is to generate a table in HTML (see here: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp ) using an expression rule and convert to PDF using the PDF from HTML using the Smart Service in this plugin: https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/dynamic-document-generator 
 If you want to generate a table in an already existing word document and then convert it to PDF, there is an example on how to create dynamic tables using this plugin in their documentation: https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/advanced-document-templating# 
 Note that there is often a loss of fidelity when converting from DOCX to PDF. If you're starting from scratch, I would recommend the 1st option (HTML -> PDF)
