Formatting a table

Hello,

i have a question concerning formatting Tables:

i attached a file with a screenshot from my table - for any reason the format of the different row changes inbetween - and the alignment too. what is the best way to get an correctly formatted table ?

my intention is to create bold entries in the first both rows and regular text in the third one.

i’m using this kind of code:

builder.startTable();
builder.getRowFormat().setBottomPadding(0);
builder.insertCell();
builder.getCellFormat().clearFormatting();
builder.getRowFormat().clearCellPadding();
builder.getCellFormat().setBottomPadding(0);
builder.getCellFormat().setTopPadding(0);
builder.getCellFormat().setVerticalMerge(CellMerge.NONE);
builder.getCellFormat().setHorizontalMerge(CellMerge.NONE);
builder.getCellFormat().setWidth(ConvertUtil.millimeterToPoint(5));
builder.getRowFormat().setBottomPadding(0);
builder.getParagraphFormat().setStyle(styleRow1);
builder.writeln("...");
builder.insertCell();
builder.getCellFormat().clearFormatting();
builder.getRowFormat().clearCellPadding();
builder.getCellFormat().setBottomPadding(0);
builder.getCellFormat().setTopPadding(0);
builder.getCellFormat().setVerticalMerge(CellMerge.NONE);
builder.getCellFormat().setWidth(ConvertUtil.millimeterToPoint(70));
builder.getParagraphFormat().setStyle(StyleRow2);
builder.writeln("...");

…

probably a bit too much formatters - but at least i got it running that way…

thanks a lot and best regards,

christian

Hi Christian,

Thanks for your request. Could you please attach your output document (produced by your code) and the expected result (created in MS Word)? I will check the issue and provide you more information.
Best regards.
