truncated table text

[sam_h]

Hello

Im new to prawn and i have a small question. some cells text in my
table is being truncated when reaching the end of the cell. is there a
way or a parameter to be passed to tell my table not to do that

Thanks A million

Please provide a reduced code example that reproduces the problem.

Also, is this happening in Prawn 0.4.x or the experimental 0.5 pre-release?

          pdf.table data,
          :border_style => :underline_header,
          :position => 85,
          :align => :left,
          :overflow => :overflow


and the data is an array that am intializing using the following format

data = [[value A, Value B], [[value C, Value D]]


Am using 0.5 at the moment

Thanks for ur really fast responce

Please add:

Prawn.debug = true

at the top of your script just after the requires. Then provide me
with a complete running example.

I will not be able to reproduce the error by guessing at what your
headers / data look like.

try this please:

          data=[["Project:", "Romerdiie Wafes Treedmelt Ptand Upqsade ald Syftom Improvements"],
          ["Addgggress of Payee:", "addressdede"]]

          pdf.table data,
          :border_style => :underline_header,
          :position => 85,
          :align => :left

"improvements" is truncated, i hope this is what you asked for

thanks again

No. I need a full script that I can run.

The table simply going off the right edge of the page, setting the table
width option or column_widths option should resolve it.

In the future, please make sure that unless there is a good reason why
it would not be possible,
provide a full running script so that we can more easily debug your issues.

It saves us effort, and makes it harder for us to misunderstand your problem.
