How to draw the table when there is no space to draw the column?
When you set the width of the column at a compile time and there is no space to draw the column with specified width in WinForms PDF, you can change the page size. You can increase the width and height of the page by using the PageSettings property.
Refer to the following code example to set the page’s width and height at a compile time.
C#
// Create a new instance of PdfDocument class.
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument();
//Set page size
document.PageSettings.Size = new SizeF(1000, 1000);
// Add a page to the document.
PdfPage page = document.Pages.Add();
// DataTable data=Createtable();
DataTable data=Createtable();
//Create the light table
PdfLightTable pdfLineItemsTable = new PdfLightTable();
//Set the data into data source
pdfLineItemsTable.DataSource = data;
//Setting the width of the particular cells
pdfLineItemsTable.Columns[0].Width = 300;
pdfLineItemsTable.Columns[1].Width = 73;
pdfLineItemsTable.Columns[2].Width = 35;
pdfLineItemsTable.Columns[3].Width = 390;
pdfLineItemsTable.Draw(page, new RectangleF(26, 138, page.GetClientSize().Width - 50, 143));
// Save and close the document.
document.Save("Sample.pdf");
document.Close(true);
