I have a file whose number of lines is more than one page. Using the sample code that I linked, I was able to create only one PDF page but i want to display all data. How can I solve this problem?

No, I use the table to display the data inside the file. The link below is an example of a file https://gist.github.com/azamss/5988663277c52ffc8497fc94ef61e0d1

I think you have 2 possiblities: 1) pre-calculate the height of all the text when rendered and insert the pdf.AddPage() accordingly. 2) or calculate the rest of the page and necessary height of the text block. If height exseeds the rest of the page add new page
