How to fit a wide table using jspdf, jspdf-autotable

Question

I'm using jspdf with the plugin jspdf-autotable to create a pdf for a very wide table, is there a way to auto fit the table/column data to any page size?

I tried the code below with overflow: 'linebreak' but it breaks the words halfway not at the empty space

Answer 1

I'm not completely sure I understood your question, but if you want some columns to simply wrap the content and some to linebreak you can to like this.

function demoPDF() {
  var pdfsize = 'a0';
  var pdf = new jsPDF('l', 'pt', pdfsize);

  pdf.autoTable({
    html: '#table',
    startY: 60,
    styles: {
      fontSize: 50,
      cellWidth: 'wrap'
    },
    columnStyles: {
      1: {columnWidth: 'auto'}
    }
  });

  pdf.save(pdfsize + ".pdf");
};

demoPDF();
