Exported PDF file is not same with file template

[Evendo]

Hello,

I'm trying to create an app with AppSheet that will export PDF file depend on inputted data and some condition.

I had no problem with Bot or Data, the file could be created and exported; however, the exported PDF file result is look alike with what I defined in the template file. The position of texts and images was changed and went to places that I can't control.

Can you tell me the reason and a way to solve it?

Here is the template content...

And here is what was exported...Result

Please give me some advice. Thanks so much!

I would prefer to insert your free texts inside of a same table in the row. In that way you have better control for the text.

@AleksiAlkio Thanks for your advice. Now, I could control the text position but the logo and images which I'm using still unable to fixed in the position I want (even when I choose the "Fix position on page" option), is there any solution?

In the below image, the arrow point to position where the logo should be (I'm using real company logo to test the template so please forgive me for watermark these logos) Current result

Insert your logos into a table as well. You probably need to merge cells to find a good position.

@AleksiAlkio Thanks for advice, I tried my best to make the template again and put everything in a table, now items' position is all OK, however, a had new problem with the border.

As all the template content now putted inside a table and I want only some part of the table will be displayed with border, I painted them bit by bit. However, the border at some desired positions are not displayed when exporting into PDF file as the below image (even when I tried to change it into a lot of different colors). Is this any mistake here?

Difficult to say without seeing the template itself and testing directly. Sometimes it's difficult to get them right.
