Table in PDF ignores width and breaks words

Post by lporrel »

A table, built as a PDF, is breaking apart one of my words, and it is ignoring the column width setting that I put into place to prevent the problem. Please see the screen capture. There is no space between the "n" and the "s" in "Applications". I have hyphenation set to "never" for the style. Anything else that I know of that could be related to this is set to default. What am I missing?

I'm bumping this thread since I'm having the same issues. For example, here's how my table header looked initially:

I don't want either word hyphenated so I opened up my stylesheet, set the media to print, and set mc-hyphenate in my <th> tag to never. Unfortunately, here's what I got:

I then tried setting fixed column widths as shown below.

In my HTML5 and Word outputs I get four 1.5" columns. However, in my PDF output these settings are completely ignored. Any ideas of what I can do?

Thanks,
Brian
