Generated PDF, XLS, CSV are not customizable. Unfortunately, the library allows very little “fine-tuning” of the generated files, so font, size, and other properties cannot be changed.
Conditional formatting is not reflected in any of generated export files.
Other front-end extensions cannot be combined with Table Tools. If you have row grouping enabled for the table, or there are some customizations you did yourself, they won’t be reflected in the generated Excel, CSV or PDF document, nor in the clipboard.
When you export tables with the wpDataTables plugin, please note that you can export values, but not formulas. WpDataTables doesn’t support exporting formulas, so a Formula column will be exported only with values; and any calculations of Average, MIN, MAX, and Total will not be exported at all.
Exporting images is not possible at the moment.
You can’t export columns that are hidden – they will not be visible in any exporting or printing tool.
I noticed when I export to .xls, .csv or pdf, the conditional formatting does not show up. Is there a way to have that carry over?
