    Description

      Atlassian Update - 25 02 2020

      After some analysis we've found that this issue has been duplicated by the issue at CONFSERVER-29189 - PDF/Word export of gadget from JIRA renders html markup. This is a current and verified bug in Confuence, please watch that issue for further updates and more detailed workarounds.

      We use jira filter gadgets on Confluence pages as a quick way of providing reports to our clients of their current issues. this generally works very well.

      However, clients have been complaining that there is no easy way to print the pages, and there seem to be two bugs here:

      1. If you use the standard browser print functionality (right click, print) then the printed pages do not include all the rows, or all the columns, that are visible on screen. A lot gets cut off

      2. If you use "Export to PDF" or "Export to Word" you get a load of garbled text, rather than the contents of the table.

      Consequently our users are complaining that there is no easy way to print these reports from Confluence, which is a problem. To workaround, we've given them links to the filters in Jira, but this was what we were trying to avoid!
