I need to print a large HTML table because of a project I have. The table’s printing across 4 pages It will occasionally split a row in half, rendering one half on the bleeding edge of the page and the other half printed at the top of the following page, rendering it unreadable. I added the page breaks for tr ,td and div in the that html template but it didn’t works.
Use the below code in CSS
`<style>
@media print {
tr {
page-break-inside: avoid;
}
thead {
display: table-header-group;
}
}
</style>
`
Hi @BalaV,
Please check it.
<style>
@media print {
.page-break {
page-break-before: always;
}
}
.table-wrapper {
width: 100%;
overflow-x: auto;
}
.my-table {
table-layout: fixed;
width: 100%;
}
.my-table tr {
page-break-inside: avoid;
page-break-after: auto;
}
.my-table td {
word-break: break-word;
}
</style>
<div class="table-wrapper">
<table class="my-table">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Row 1, Cell 1</td>
<td>Row 1, Cell 2</td>
</tr>
<!-- more rows -->
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
Please set your code according to the scenario.
I hope this helps.
Thank You!

Hi @BalaV,

<div class="table-wrapper">
<table class="my-table">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>row one</td>
<td>{{doc.row_one}}</td>
</tr>
<!-- more rows -->
{% for row in doc.rows %}
<tr>
<td>{{ row.field1 }}</td>
<td>{{ row.field2 }}</td>
<td>{{ row.field3 }}</td>
</tr>
{% if loop.index % 10 == 0 %}
<tr class="page-break">
<td colspan="3"></td>
</tr>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
</body>
After every 10 rows, a tr element with the class “page-break” is inserted, acting as a manual page break. The colspan=“3” attribute ensures the row spans across all columns.
Adjust the number 10 in the {% if loop.index % 10 == 0 %} condition based on the number of rows you want to display on each page before a page break.
Although this method is not ideal, it provides a workaround for manually adding page breaks.
I hope this helps.
Thank You!

Thank you @NCP 
but the table have nested tables in some row which is only getting the dynamic values. so I planned to put the nested tables in bottom of the main table to reduce the row breaks in the top by giving manual page break.
