Left Margin when converting from HTML to PDF

Hi.

I’m having a problem when converting an HTML to PDF. I’ve attached both files.

My problem is: the left margin seems too big. What can I do to make it smaller? I’ve tried but I see no change.

Follows my Java code:

// get the source input
Document srcDoc = new Document(input);

srcDoc.save(output);

What do you suggest?

Kind regards,
JP.

As a workaround, please use the following code snippet. Hope this helps you. Please let us know if you have any more queries.

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "in.html");
for (Section section: (Iterable <Section> ) doc.getSections())

doc.save(MyDir + "out.pdf");

I have received response from our development team about WORDSNET-8772 and like to share with you that currently, only the following HTML construction is recognized by HTML import to set page margins (document contents are enclosed in a
element; page margins are specified inside @page rule). Please modify your html as shown below to set page margins. I have modified your input html and attached it with this post for your kind reference.

<html>
<head>
    <style type="text/css">
        @page mainpage {
            /* Page margins are set here. */
            margin - top: 0.5 in;
            margin - right: 0.25 in;
            margin - bottom: 0.50 in;
            margin - left: 0.25 in;
        }

        div.pagesetup {
            page: mainpage;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <div class="pagesetup">
        <p>Text</p>
    </div>
</body>
</html>
