How to Wrap Text With in a Report - while Displaying in PDF?
I have a scenario in which I am generating a report, in which I would want to wrap couple of columns. The column data is a long continuous text without spaces or any delimiters. While displaying the report in PDF I am not able to wrap its contents due to which the user has to scroll the window bar from left to right. I tried using the options available in Report Definition like WrapTextonDot, pxDisplayText, pxTextInput, but none of those worked.
Looking forward for positive replies... thank you

Hi Rakesh,
Could you please try the below steps at your end and let me know if it works?
1. Open rule pyReport_ExportToPdfStyles (It is an available rule).
2. Add the below CSS style in the .fontFamily.
Word-wrap: break word;
I tried this at my end and it did work.
Thanks,
Gisela
Nice piece of information Gis!!!
Hello Rakesh,
Do you have a text containing words with 100-120 letters and your expectation is to wrap them like in Notepad ?
If that is the case then this seems to be the expected behavior. As Pega follows word wrap. Based on the words Pega wraps text in available space.

Hope this helps.
