I am trying to add a blank Cell in a row. Basically I am trying replicate the following html scenario using Aspose.

1) 799.4 CACHEXIA  

Is there a way to add a blank Cell just the way I have for my second

in the html.

Thanks,

Saikat

Hi Saikat,

Thanks for contacting support.

In order to accomplish your requirement, please try using the following code snippet. Please note that every table cell contains one or more paragraph objects and in case you want to add a blank table cell, you may ignore adding any paragraph inside it. Text is treated as a paragraph level object.

For your reference, I have also attached the resultant PDF file generated on my end.

//Instantiate Document object by calling its empty constructor
Aspose.Pdf.Document doc = new Aspose.Pdf.Document();

// add page to Document object
Aspose.Pdf.Page page = doc.Pages.Add();

//Instantiate a table object
Aspose.Pdf.Table tab1 = new Aspose.Pdf.Table();

//Add the table in paragraphs collection of the PDF page
page.Paragraphs.Add(tab1);

//Set with column widths of the table
tab1.ColumnWidths = "130 50 80";

//Set default cell border using BorderInfo object
tab1.DefaultCellBorder = new Aspose.Pdf.BorderInfo(Aspose.Pdf.BorderSide.All, 0.1F);

//Set table border using another customized BorderInfo object
tab1.Border = new Aspose.Pdf.BorderInfo(Aspose.Pdf.BorderSide.All, 1F);

//Create MarginInfo object and set its left, bottom, right and top margins
Aspose.Pdf.MarginInfo margin = new Aspose.Pdf.MarginInfo();
margin.Top = 5f;
margin.Left = 5f;
margin.Right = 5f;
margin.Bottom = 5f;

//Set the default cell padding to the MarginInfo object
tab1.DefaultCellPadding = margin;

//Create rows in the table and then cells in the rows
Aspose.Pdf.Row row1 = tab1.Rows.Add();
row1.Cells.Add("1) 799.4 CACHEXIA");
row1.Cells.Add("");
row1.Cells.Add("3rd Column");

Aspose.Pdf.Row row2 = tab1.Rows.Add();
row2.Cells.Add("item1");
row2.Cells.Add("item2");
row2.Cells.Add("item3");

//Save the Pdf
doc.Save("c:/pdftest/TableResult_DOM.pdf");
