This is a known issue with phantomjs, it simply does not support page break inside a table.

Oh, But any thing else we can do for this. Like that looking so odd.

Ok, Can you tell me how can i access current page no. of PDF in PHP.

Hi,

You can only access page number in page header/footer which are sticky through pages. Please explain other cases where you want the page number displayed.

Regarding the main topic, if you want a nicer page break with table across pages you could try Cloud Export package which by default uses headless chrome to render pdf.

Ok, Page break I did manually with the help of PHP, Now i have another issue, I want to pass data from the controller to view in laravel how i can do. Below is my code:

$report->run();
$report->export('MyReportView')
	->pdf(array(
		"width"=>"1100px",
		"height"=>"800px",
	)
)->toBrowser("report.pdf", true);

Hi, you can pass any value to from controller like this:

$report = new MyReport(array(
    "year"=>2020,
    "userId"=>123,
));

Now at the view MyReportView, you can receive pameters like following:

<?php
$userId = $this->params["userId"];
$year = $this->params["year"];
?>

Hope that helps.
