You'd have to modify the HTML yourself before passing it to Flying Saucer. FS won't do it for you (unlikely some browsers which can print across multiple [horizontal] pages).

As things stand now, link annotations can be added as well as some AcroForm annotations. It shouldn't be hard to add support for additional annotations though (see ITextOutputDevice and ITextReplacedElementFactory for inspiration).

I am using Flying Saucer to convert some HTML reports to PDF files and there are some reports with huge number of columns.

Now when i tried converting the report using Flying Saucer, depending on the page width

that i specify, it clipped the view of the table for smaller widths , and for bigger widths it is not readable

unless i zoom into the view.

The requirement is that the text in the columns should be wrapped so that the entire table shows up

in one view. Can this be achieved or am i missing something here?

The other requirement that i have is to add some actions/annotations on the text chunks that are

shown in the columns for table. Is this achievable by using the library?
