Hi there support,

On our forms we use repeater fields a lot, sometimes in sequence. Using [foreach id] in an HTML Object to create a table, we are having a hard time creating a PDF reliably without large amounts of whitespace or data being lost.

As it appears E2PDF doesn't know relative positions yet and won't stretch to fit, is it possible to create a concise PDF with all these repeater fields in proper order?

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately the only way is to use "Splitting content over pages" feature (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZNxz_JZ3d0 at this moment to continue overflowed content inside "HTML" block, with set "parent" and "hide page if empty" options, however we are not sure if it will be possible to use it like this with your current PDF template.

P.S. "Relative" positions currently much requested and we are doing our best to add its support however due the complex of task it's taking much time and we do not have any ETA at this moment.

We remain at your service.
We would really appreciate your feedback at WordPress.org!

Thank you for your quick response,

We are investigating using Textareas to account for Repeater Fields. Please see attached.

Is there a way to stop the HTML code (<p>, </p>) from being picked up?

Thanks again Oleksandr!

Hi,

It looks like adding wpautop=0 and modifying shortcodes must solve the issue:

[11782:1 wpautop=0]
[11782:2 wpautop=0]
[11782:3 wpautop=0]
....
