  • 1.  Reducing the text size for table elements (PDF output)

    Posted 07-03-2012 15:55
    Hello,

    I would like to reduce the text size for a table (for example to
    body.font.master *0.9 or to a fixed value like 10px).

    Is there a parameter for this?

    Best regards, Lars

    Hi Lars,

    I'm not 100% sure what the best way is to handle this, but there is an attribute list named table.properties. I'd suggest adding the font-size attribute to that attribute list and seeing what happens. It seems like this is a reasonably isolated attribute list, but if it works, I would still check to make sure there aren't side effects (like changing the font size on other structures that happen to use table).

    Good Luck,
    Dick

    Hi Dick,

    thanks for the answer. The solution from Dean worked fine for me.

    Best regards, Lars
