Thread: Table columns are squeezed in "Publish as PDF" output

Table columns are squeezed in "Publish as PDF" output
MUnangst 2/5/2007 8:03:01 PM
If you have a table in a note that you export to a PDF, the table columns are
rendered much narrower in the PDF than they are displayed in OneNote (or are
printed on a printed page). You can see this easily by creating a table with
a few wide columns, then exporting it to PDF and comparing the generated PDF
to the appearance of the table in OneNote.

This is with OneNote 2007 build 4518 & WinXP SP2.

since this is a first build at "save as PDF/XPS", there are lots of
things missing. General formatting is one of them...Well, at least in
OneNote. You can get a little more formatting in Word.

I have tried this multiple times, and not been able to replicate it. What
version of Adobe do you have installed? Do you have any other PDF Reader
installed?

Hello!

I actually found the bug for myself.

To reproduce build a table like this:

111 | 111 | 111
111 | 111 | 2222222222

If you publish this you get the squeezed export. I think it doesn't matter
which Acrobat Software is installed.

In some cases you get something like this:

11 | 11 | 111
1 1
11 | 11 | 222222
1 | 1 | 2222

I don't want a second WinWord (OneNote with more table functions) but please
correct the bugs.

Greetings
Tom
