Generating PDF accommodating text of various lengths

Mounika · 01/22/24

1.) I have a sheet which generate a document for each row in a Smartsheet. The document needs to accommodate cells with varying amounts of text - from a few words to multiple paragraphs. The fields should expand/contract based on the text length. Are there any workarounds to make this possible?

2.) Is mapping of Smartsheet fields is possible with a Word Document?

3.) I have a sheet where I have mapped it with fillable PDF, which is set to font size 11, why does the font size get progressively smaller as the PDF goes on? Could that be because there’s more words than the box can hold?

Please help me with my questions and suggest me the possible workarounds.

Thanks in Advance!

@Mounika Hi

This is not possible. You would have to account for your largest possible text.
No
Check your PDF template, your font is most likely different in the template for some of the fields.
