Has anyone created a PDF Template where a field can flow to a second page if needed?  I have a need where the selected data may fit on one page but may also need to run to a second page.

    Hi Allen,

    Please look into below link for a dynamic pdf generation logic. we have implemented this one for extracting  paging grid(dynamic records) into pdf. I think

    you may need to customize the xmlxsl template file according to your use case.

    hope this helps. Thanks

    Have a Good Day!

    Hi Allen,

    If you do not require complex formatting, using the PDF from DOCX smart service is another option. This would involve creating a docx template file with merge tags and freemarker code for data insertion
