NOTE: This bug report is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding bug report.
In a Page with a long table, when exporting to PDF it cuts columns off the table. Was working in previous versions (tested 5.4.4 and it did not cut off any columns). I tested in 5.5.2, 5.5.3, 5.6.1, and 5.5-OD-28-10 and these versions are all affected.
Reproduction steps:
- Create a new page
- Create a table with 15 columns (number of rows shouldn't matter)
- Paste a 10 character string into each of the columns
- Save the page
- Export to PDF
Expected behavior
The table shrinks to fit the page, see conf544.pdf attachment.
Actual behavior
The table gets cut off, see conf553.pdf
Workaround
Have Confluence change the generated PDF by adding a 'PDF Export Stylesheet'. The one below can be used:
@page
{
/*A4-sized pages in landscape orientation are 297 mm wide by 210 mm long*/
size: 297mm 210mm;
}

[CONFSERVER-34390] Long tables are cut off on PDF Export
A fix for this issue is now available for Confluence Server customers.
Upgrade now or check out the Release Notes to see what other issues are resolved.
6.1.1 is also affected.
There is no sence to post proofs as it clearly seen from previous reply how it looks.
This is a most annoying issue, like one where you can't control/limit or even select all to delete page's history.
I am still seeing this issue in Confluence 6.0.4, despite the fact that it says it's fixed in Confluence 6.0.3. I've attached a screenshot showing the page when viewed in Confluence (good) and the page when viewed in an exported PDF (bad).

Thanks.

Ameya Agashe Is there any plan to resolve this?
We have this issue on 5.9.3.
If we use print to pdf function from browser then we loose custom header and footer.
I appears if you use "Print" and print to PDF the columns are not cut off. Still this seems like an important requirement Atlassian should be paying attention to. If the Browser, Print option works, why not export to pdf.
If table is inside Section and there is other Section then table is corrupted during export to pdf.
