First row of table overlapping with row headers in PDF document

[Keenmeng Lew]

Hello,

The PDF I have generated has corrupted lines at the top - the first entry is printed over the column titles. Please see sample below for reference: -

Any ideas how to fix this?

Cheers!

Can you share a sample HTML/CSS and command for it?

Can you also share the wkhtmltopdf command you are using. From your PDF looks like you are using a header on each page...?

The problem is that header is printed in a specific position on each page but the data gets printed on top of it. I haven't worked with header in wkhtmltopdf and can't till you share the command, but seems like you need to adjust margins or something for the data rows so that they don't overlap with the "static" header.

Qasim,

The PDFs were generated from within an application called Odoo.  I’m afraid I have little idea what the exact command is but I can try to find out.

Cheers!

I have just come across the same problem. 

I'm running the wkhtmltox-0.12.4_linux-generic-amd64.tar.xz version from Ubuntu 16.10 x64. 

The commands

wkhtmltopdf input.html output.pdf
wkhtmltopdf --print-media-type -s A4  input.html output.pdf

both result in occasional white headers overlapping the top line of text; or print being split across the middle of the text, as well as the occasional overlapping of the top line, in a table. 

This happens a few times on a 95 page document. 

As wkhtmltopdf didn't appear to respect page-break settings in the html document I fixed it by editing the html to add blank line spacing:

<br/>

It appears to be a layout problem at the top of the page. 

Best
