Hello Guys! I am trying to generate a Pdf doc(reading data from a database) on Django with xhtml2pdf library. but i encounter this error when i hit the 'Create PDF' button: 

ValueError at /RecruitmentApp/createcvpdf
<PmlTable@0x1B92DB31D50 23 rows x 3 cols> with cell(0,0) containing
'<PmlKeepInFrame at 0x1b92db92e90> size=x' data error - 23 rows in data but 22 row heights .

 ......am not sure what the error is saying or what am doing wrong. Can anyone assist please with ideas on how to tackle this issue?

This is the method in the views.py that handles the pdf creation:

def createPdf(requst):

          #jobseekerID = request.session['rec_ID']

          jobseekerID = 2

         

          cv = CV.objects.select_related('f_key_REC').get(f_key_REC = jobseekerID)

          skill = Skill.objects.select_related('fk_sCV').get(fk_sCV = cv.id)

          qualification = Qualification.objects.select_related('fk_qCV').get(fk_qCV=cv.id)

          certification = Certification.objects.select_related('fk_cCV').get(fk_cCV = cv.id)

          experience = Experience.objects.select_related('fk_eCV').filter(fk_eCV = cv.id)

          template_path = 'Recruitment_App/createpdf_cv.html'

          context = {

               "cv": cv,

               "skills" : skill,

               "qualifications": qualification,

               "certification": certification,

               "experience": experience

          }

          print (cv)

          print(skill)

          print(experience)

          response = HttpResponse(content_type='application/pdf')

          response['Content-Disposition'] = 'filename="cv001.pdf"'

          template = get_template(template_path)

          html = template.render(context)

          pisa_status = pisa.CreatePDF(html, dest=response)

          print(template)

          if pisa_status.err:

               return HttpResponse('We had some errors <pre>' + html + '</pre>')

          return response
