I am using data table export functions like PDF and Excel. In PDF export I have message option, which is showing in only one page of document. But I want that in every page of the document.
{
extend: 'pdfHtml5',
message:" Phase: Phase1",
filename: 'Tickets_List',
footer: true,
header:true,
}
please help me. Thank you.
After examination of the DataTables & pdfMake docs, you can't change the title on each page, but you can get rid of it.
I suggest you use the header attribute as you can change the size and font, and change it per page.
The following example shows the header in the same position as the title, with a customize function:
UPDATE
For some reason, you cannot download the PDF from a SO Code Snippet, so here is a working fiddle as well https://jsfiddle.net/BeerusDev/tb3zy0us/30/
