Hi all, i am encountering problem with migradoc word wrapping in a tablecell when the word is very long and without any spaces.

(e.g http://www.xxxxxxxxxxx.com/aaaaaa/bbbbbb/ccccccccc/dddddd.html)

So far my search has not turned out any way to resolve this. The closest i could get was to use PDFSharp "DrawString". However, i am unable to obtain a Graphics context to "DrawString" to.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi!

It is by design that MigraDoc doesn't wrap words without hyphens or soft hyphens.

There is a simple solution: insert soft hyphens at the places where you want to allow wrapping to occur.
You can insert soft hyphens using Alt+0173 - e.g. behind every single forward slash and behind every dot.

Another idea: write "Click me", "Go to homepage", or another friendly name into the cell and hide the URL from the reader.
Use AddHyperlink from the Paragraph object.
