[reportlab-users] Word wrap on Table.

[Pedro Ghilardi]

For example:

first_row = [
    Paragraph('Header title 1', styles['Normal']),
    Paragraph('Header title 2', styles['Normal'])
]
second_row = [
    Paragraph('a', styles['Normal']),
    Paragraph('b', styles['Normal'])
]
third_row = [
    Paragraph('c', styles['Normal']),
    Paragraph('d', styles['Normal'])
]

This will not wrap like I want. Because it will consider the width of
the chars 'a' and 'c' to wrap the first column and the width of chars
'b' and 'd' to wrap the second column. Then, the 'Header title 1' and
'Header title 2' will not fit on the table.
