I was able to generate Contract++ PDF :) However, the code in tables with
more than 1 column looks bad (because all columns have the same width).

Is there a way to fix that or at least to generate the PDF on A4 landspace
instead of portrait?

For example, look at the code in table on page 3:
http://contractpp.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/contractpp/trunk/doc/html/contractpp.pdf

versus its HTML version:
http://contractpp.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/contractpp/trunk/doc/html/index.html#contract__.introduction.an_example

Thanks a lot,
