Table cell no border if empty

  • When a tag is empty, i.e., not filled out, the PDF does not create a border around the cell. This makes the generated PDF look inconsistent, as cells with and without borders alternate. I tried several approaches to solve this problem but none worked (e.g. adding a css class or <span style=”visibility:hidden;”> or &nbsp;). Do you have an idea on how I could solve this issue?

    Example code snippet:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html lang="de">
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <title>Event Auftrag</title>
        <style>
            .pdf-cell {
                border: 1px solid black;
                min-height: 20px;
                min-width: 100px;
            }
        </style>
    </head>
    <body>

    <h2>Event-Auftrag: <u>[veranstaltungstitel]</u></h2>
    <p>Auftragsnummer: <strong>Siehe E-Mail</strong></p>

    <table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;" cellpadding="5">
        <tr>
            <td colspan="2" style="border-bottom: 1px solid black;">
                <h3 style="margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><u>Allgemein</u></h3>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td class="pdf-cell"><strong>Name</strong></td>
            <td class="pdf-cell">[your-name]</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td class="pdf-cell"><strong>E-Mail</strong></td>
            <td class="pdf-cell">[your-email]</td>
        </tr>
        <!-- Weitere Zeilen... -->
    </table>

    </body>
    </html>

    Thanks for your help,
    best regards!
