I am generating a pdf document using iText in java. The pdf has a header and a table. When the table continues to the next page, first row of the table overlaps into the header. How to display the remaining table rows below the header in the next page

I am using itextsharp to create pdf file from html. I have a dynamic string that will occupy half to full page and a dynamic table after that. The problem is there is lot of space if i move the whole table to a new page sometimes and if i break the table the header alone is in one page and the rest of the content is in the next page sometimes.
I want to know if it is possible to make sure that the page break is not introduced between the table header and the first row of the table.
I am aware of how to do the following
Prevent the whole table from splitting if there is not enough space in the page and move it to a new page by using
KeepTogether = true
Allow the table to split but prevent the row from splitting if there is not enough space by using
KeepTogether = false;
SplitRows = true;
SplitLate = true;
Repeat the table header if the table spans across multiple pages
But i don't want any of these methods. I want to allow the table to split but just not between the header and the first row or the first two rows otherwise.
Solution figured out: Used KeepRowsTogether()
I'm designing a report template using iReport tool.
The requirement is simply to have a table full of data and at the end (just after the last row of data) displaying the totals of that data.
So far I designed like below.
But I still don't know whether it's correct to put those data in Column footer or not.
And I'm using isIgnorePagination="true" so there won't be any pages but a single page of data with large amount of data records.
Is there any way I can have the pagination back. I can't remove the isIgnorePagination="true" because then there will be a gap between Detail Bar and Column Footer if there is less data to display and if there are multiple pages that column footer data will display for each page. (I need that totals to display just after the table data)
Is there any way to achieve this.
Usually the column footer will be set directly over the page footer, as you have seen.
The option Float Column Footer, if set to true, will let the column footer float directly under the detail bar and not anchored over the page footer (see more here).
I'm using ireport designer 5.6.0. I'm trying to display data using table and in page header display number of pages. I found videos on youtube with examples where they put table inside Detail band and generate report,but it's not working for me, it's like in some loop only displaying "Generating report".
When I try to move table in some other band (page footer/header or summary), table is displayer, but page number is only displayed once instead for every page of report.
Is it posible in this version put table in detail band? Or should I maybe create subreport with table in it and put that inside detail band, so that page number would be displayed correctly?
Basically detail band will be displayed only when the main dataset query returns rows greater than one. I came to know from your question that there is no query for the main dataset. Also if the main dataset query returns 5 rows, then your table will be displayed or repeated 5 times. Make sure your main dataset query returns only row.
Also have a look at the problem due to the table component in detail band
I have some problem with my jasper table. If count of elements in table more then 18, table footer carry on next page, but table header does not reprint. How to solve this?
Try using Column header instead of Table header.
This link seems to be the reverse of your question.
During PDf generation in Jasper, I have 2 bands having table in each, if data display of table1 ends in 90% of a page in PDF, then data display of table 2 display starts, where the table column header cannot be able to print within that page, so it prints only the border line of the table in that balance 10% of the page, but it normally prints the same data in next page. Here the problem is, it should not print the border of the table in first page if the actual data containing in that table cell cant able to print it within that page. This looks like some junk printing in the PDF. Please help.
For the group which holds Table 2, set the minHeightToStartNewPage, as per your requirements (maybe something like 100 or 200, for an A4 layout).
