Automatically not split data to multi pages. You may split manually.

If your ( rowCount * rowHeight ) > 420mm ( A3 Height in mm ) add new page function. ( Sorry I can't edit your code without run ) After add new page leftMargin, topMargin = 0; ( start over ) I added sample code with yours. I hope it's right.

else {
    doc.margins = 1;
    doc.setFont("Times  ");
    doc.setFontType("normal ");
    doc.setFontSize(11);
    if ( rowCount * rowHeight > 420 ) {
        doc.addPage();
        rowCount = 3; // skip 1 and 2 above
    } else {
        // now rowcount = 3 ( top of new page for 3 )
        // j is your x axis cell index ( j start from 0 on $.each function ) or you can add cellCount like rowCount and replace with
        // rowcount is your y axis cell index
        left = ( ( j ) * ( cellWidth + leftMargin );
        top = ( ( rowcount - 3 ) * ( rowHeight + topMargin );
        doc.cell( leftMargin, top, cellWidth, rowHeight, cellContent, i);
        // 1st=left margin    2nd parameter=top margin,     3rd=row cell width      4th=Row height
    }
}

here s an example using html2canvas  amp  jspdf  although how you generate the canvas doesn t matter--we re just going to use the height of that as the breakpoint on a for loop  in which a new page is created and content added to it   after the for loop  the pdf is saved   function makePDF             var quotes   document getElementById  container-fluid           html2canvas quotes         then  canvas    gt                    MAKE YOUR PDF             var pdf   new jsPDF  p    pt    letter                 for  var i   0  i  lt   quotes clientHeight 980  i                          This is all just html2canvas stuff                 var srcImg    canvas                  var sX        0                  var sY        980 i     start 980 pixels down for every new page                 var sWidth    900                  var sHeight   980                  var dX        0                  var dY        0                  var dWidth    900                  var dHeight   980                   window onePageCanvas   document createElement  canvas                    onePageCanvas setAttribute  width   900                   onePageCanvas setAttribute  height   980                   var ctx   onePageCanvas getContext  2d                       details on this usage of this function                      https   developer mozilla org en-US docs Web API Canvas API Tutorial Using images Slicing                 ctx drawImage srcImg sX sY sWidth sHeight dX dY dWidth dHeight                       document body appendChild canvas                   var canvasDataURL   onePageCanvas toDataURL  image png   1 0                    var width           onePageCanvas width                  var height          onePageCanvas clientHeight                       If we re on anything other than the first page                     add another page                 if  i  gt  0                        pdf addPage 612  791     8 5  x 11  in pts  in 72                                        now we declare that we re working on that page                 pdf setPage i 1                       now we add content to that page                  pdf addImage canvasDataURL   PNG   20  40   width  62    height  62                                   after the for loop is finished running  we save the pdf              pdf save  Test pdf

I have the same working issue  Searching in MrRio github I found this  https   github com MrRio jsPDF issues 101  Basically  you have to check the actual page size always before adding new content  doc   new jsPdf        pageHeight  doc internal pageSize height      Before adding new content y   500    Height position of new content if  y  gt   pageHeight      doc addPage      y   0    Restart height position   doc text x  y   value

I found the solution on this page  https   github com MrRio jsPDF issues 434 From the user  wangzhixuan  I copy the solution here      suppose your picture is already in a canvas        var imgData   canvas toDataURL  image png                    Here are the numbers  paper width and height  that I found to work         It still creates a little overlap part between the pages  but good enough for me        if you can find an official number from jsPDF  use them                 var imgWidth   210         var pageHeight   295          var imgHeight   canvas height   imgWidth   canvas width        var heightLeft   imgHeight         var doc   new jsPDF  p    mm          var position   0         doc addImage imgData   PNG   0  position  imgWidth  imgHeight         heightLeft -  pageHeight         while  heightLeft  gt   0            position   heightLeft - imgHeight          doc addPage            doc addImage imgData   PNG   0  position  imgWidth  imgHeight           heightLeft -  pageHeight                doc save   file pdf
