PDF page margins and repeaters

[eddparsons]

Hi,

I have a repeater with fields that contain large amounts of text. When converting the page to a PDF, if the text within a field overflows onto the next page, the PDF top and bottom margins I have set are ignored. Any suggestions on how to get the page margins respected? This is on Ebase v 4.5.4

Regards,
Edd

Hi Edd,

You should be able to specify the margin using CSS3, you can put this in your HTML++ or in the stylesheet:

Code: Select all

<style>
	@page { 
			 margin-top : 60px; 
			 margin-bottom : 60px;
		}
</style>

You can also wrap this in a @media wrapper to make sure if it is specific to print pages:

Code: Select all

<style>
	@media print
	{
		@page { 
			 margin-top : 60px; 
			 margin-bottom : 60px;
		}
	}
</style>

I hope this helps
