Bullet list in tables not indented correctly in PDF export

Matthew Furry

On the page the bulleted list appears correctly when placed in a table

When exported to PDF it looks like the indent is negative and moves into the column to the left:

The indents get more negative instead of positive.

Is this a bug?

Can anyone suggest a work-around for the CSS for PDF export? Is this a problem with the confluencedefaultpdf.css?

.wiki-content ul 
{
    list-style-type:disc;
}

/* table view for several macros*/
.tableview td 
{
	border-color:#CCCCCC;
	border-style:solid;
	border-width:0 0 1px;
	margin:0;
	padding:4px 10px 4px 5px;
	text-align:left;
}

For me, adding a padding for unordered lists helped as a workaround:

.wiki-content table ul
{

padding-left: 50px;

}

I just then also had to set a tiny padding for the ordered lists, to limit their shifting to the other side (in our CSS, we use the list-style-types decimal, lower roman and lower alpha):

.wiki-content ol, .wiki-content ol ol ol ol, .wiki-content ol ol ol ol ol ol ol, .wiki-content ol ol ol ol ol ol ol ol ol ol

{

padding-left: 1px;

}

The padding value can be adjusted as needed.

The only thing that still does not work is the different disc style for sub levels of the list.

@Matthew Furry I think one of these are your issue: CONFCLOUD-57136 CONFCLOUD-31366

They've been closed as 'Won't Fix' due to no votes. I would confirm that with Atlassian Support and see if they can reopen them. Then we need to start gathering a bunch of votes. Please post the results. If they reopen them, I'll vote for them too.

Hope that helps

Thanks, those appear un-related. My issue is basic alignment and a bug in the PDF export.

Brilliant, thanks! That does clean up the tables quite a bit:
