Awesome Table can be used to create beautiful, printable documents generated from a simple tabular data. It is especially useful within organizations that need to export news, workflows or reports.
Export your view
In the Awesome Table view editor, simply check the More Actions menu (1) and select the print icon (2).
info If your view has no filters and no search bar, you need to check "Allow viewers to download data as CSV" in the Advanced Parameters to display the More Actions menu and export your view.
Feature presentation
This feature allows users to export the current data displayed by Awesome Table in a document.
You can even manage settings like:
- Size: Choose the type and the size of paper you want to print
- Layout: Choose to save the document as Portrait or Landscape
- Filters: Choose if you want to display your filters
Then, you just have to apply the same settings to further customize the document for export:
- Destination: Choose how to export the document (PDF, Print, save in Drive...)
- Pages: Choose what pages you want to print
- Layout: Choose to save the document as Portrait or Landscape
(it must be the same setting you chose for your Awesome Table view above) - Size: Choose the type and the size of paper you want to print
(it must be the same setting you chose for your Awesome Table view above)
warning It is important to have exactly the same print settings in your Awesome Table view and your web browser, otherwise your export will not have the same rendering.

Hello,
Could you explain further your issue? If you want to print your entire website, this problem goes beyond Awesome Table and concerns your web browser.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Can I print selected Item ... as below in my view?
Hello Krushnakumar Joshi,
It is not possible to print a selected item like it is shown in your screenshot. This question goes beyond Awesome Table and concerns the print function of your web browser.
Thank you for your understanding.

Hi the printing function have some minor issue. When printing a long list of item, the table header appear at the bottom of each page where it should repeat at the top of each page. Also the last item of every page will appear only small portion, if not fit. Can you help fix this layout issue in PDF printing?
Hello Verapich Pinprayong,
It's strange as a behavior! Do you try to print your view embedded in a website? If that is the case, could you share with us the URL of your website?
Thanks in advance.

I have the save behavior. Have you fixed it?
Me too, I have also facing the save behavior for printing the long list of items in a table. All the time table header repeat at the button. Please help....
The "More Actions menu (1)" does not always appear for me on the second attempt. The first time I try, the more action menu appears. But if I want to print a second table, different table or graphs, the More Action Menu does not appear.
Is there something I'm missing?

Hi @Brandon.
I tested several views and the More actions menu appeared each time.
Could you share a screencast of this issue?
Also, does it happen to just 1 view or any view?
We'll wait for your reply.
