I have saved some pages of information from a Confluence site that might close. They are currently saved as mhtml pages on my PC. When I try to copy and paste the information to a new Jira page I find the page isn't wide enough and the table columns get shrinked and the contents are hard to read. Can I increase the width of a page in Jira to match the Confluence page that the data was originally on? Thanks

HI @ronnie_neilson and welcome to the Community

If I may suggest....

You can get a Confluence Free - it's free for up to 10 users. What's more, many apps are free for up to 10 users.

Export your content as XML from the current Confluence and import it into the new free site.

You'll have everything stored, in a format that you want to work with, and then you can integrate your Free Confluence with Jira or just continue to work in the Free site.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Kristian, that's a good suggestion. I work for a large organisation and the person in charge wants the documentation stored with other project information on Jira. Not ideal but that's what they want.

Best regards

Ronnie

Then look into Jira Service Management - you can push Confluence content into JSM and have it act as a doc center.

Using Jira to store the docs is like getting a Miata to transport a fridge. You can do that but that's not the right tool for the job.
