    Hi, when I export a report to PDF, the formatting is broken. Some of the table columns are overlapping and text is being cut off. I need to send this to trustees next week and it needs to look professional. Can you sort this quickly?

    Hi Harjit, I've picked this up. Can you send me a copy of the PDF that's showing the problem? That way I can see exactly what's happening and work out what's gone wrong. Thanks, Bethan

    Hi Bethan, I've attached the PDF, you'll see the table is unreadable because the columns are too close together and overlapping. This is affecting my client reports. I need this fixed before Thursday when the trustees meet. Thanks.

    Investigated PDF export. Bug in the column width calculation, it's not accounting for longer cell values. Arjun has a fix in progress.

    Harjit, we've found the issue, it's a bug in how we calculate column widths for PDF export. Our engineering team is working on a fix. I'll update you as soon as it's ready. Thanks, Bethan
