Use tables and containers in the PDF Editor to automatically display repeating data from Katana, such as multiple line items in a sales order or batch tracking details.
What are tables and containers?
Both tables and containers are dynamic components used to iterate over datasets with multiple entries. They help organize structured information on your PDF templates.
Component | Use case | Behavior |
Table | Line items in a sales order, batch properties, operations, etc. | Displays items in rows and columns |
Container | Same use cases, but offers more design freedom |
