  Or can anyone please tell me how to do a workaround in TableTools.js to add a description at the bottom of PDF file?
  I tried to append a string at the last of fnSetText function below, but it appended to the last cell of table.

  js "pdf": $.extend( {}, TableTools.buttonBase, { "sAction": "flash_pdf", "sNewLine": "\n", "sFileName": "*.pdf", "sButtonClass": "DTTT_button_pdf", "sButtonText": "PDF", "sPdfOrientation": "portrait", "sPdfSize": "A3", "sPdfMessage": "", "fnClick": function( nButton, oConfig, flash ) { this.fnSetText( flash, "title:"+ this.fnGetTitle(oConfig) +"\n"+ "message:"+ oConfig.sPdfMessage +"\n"+ "colWidth:"+ this.fnCalcColRatios(oConfig) +"\n"+ "orientation:"+ oConfig.sPdfOrientation +"\n"+ "size:"+ oConfig.sPdfSize +"\n"+ "--/TableToolsOpts--\n" + this.fnGetTableData(oConfig) ); } } ),

  Hi Visitha,

  First download the swf code from https://github.com/DataTables/TableTools/tree/master/as3 and download the flex 4.6 sdk.

  and then modify the ZeroClipboardPdf.as file using any flash editor or using Notepad++, you will find java code inside that file.
  Change the position of "message" property then compile the as file using following command

  mxmlc -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true -library-path=C:\flex_sdk_4.6\frameworks\libs ZeroClipboardPDF.as

  It will generate swf file and rename this swf file with "copy_csv_xls_pdf.swf" and use this swf in your project.

  I am using a workaround and putting my logo and disclaimer in the footer e.g.

  <tfoot>
      <tr>
          <th>Name</th>
          <th>Position</th>
          <th>Office</th>
          <th>Age</th>
      </tr>
      <tr>
          <th colspan=4>Disclaimer goes here</th>
      </tr>
  </tfoot>
  

  It doesn't look very good as a pdf, but I have disabled that option because I am also changing the cell color based on value and that's also not coming through in pdf. So I am letting people use the print option and then print to pdf.
