hi Madhura. Sorry I am not able to provide any update in these days. I am stuck in between of my mid-semester exams.
But yes I have worked on this and willing to complete this task which I have taken.
I will update you in two days after my next paper.

Hi devs, I have started to work on this request.
1) can we use writeHTML() function of TCPDF Library for writing the structure?
2) I'm also having an issue while importing column properties by using
Hi Madhura,
I have some what developed the back end functions to create the table structure. But now I need to make the change in interface of Format-specific options. For that, I believe the same interface as that for MS-word will work. Please comment.
Hi pratik, I am already working on it friend.

Hi developers,
While working on this patch, I found that two checks are done to decide if comment, mime type and relations has to be printed. One is through cfgRelation and other through checkbox present in UI (like in sql export format) to give do_comment, do_mime and do_relation values. An isset($GLOBALS[$what . xx] condition is used. But for formats like word and pdf, these checkboxes are not present. So, in such condition it will always return false. So, if I am thinking in correct direction, then just like sql export format, other formats also require the checkboxes.
I would also like share that, first I started to work on this feature in phpmyadmin_QA_4_2, and everything worked well. But when I implemented the same patch in phpmyadmin_QA_4_4, it was not working well mainly due to changed behaviour of PMA_getMime and PMA_getRelation. I checked it in ExportHtmlword.class also. It also had same problem. So, these two functions again need to be integrated in these export formats well.
I would like to implement all these for better export features in these formats. So, please tell me if I am thinking in correct direction, so that I can start working in all this asap.
For this, I require one help. I can't get the sole purpose of cfgRelation check. I know it is a global array modified in relation.lib.php. But I am not getting the sense of it. Please help me out.
I would also like to request you to comment over my patch for this feature, so that I can improve it if required. https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/pull/1604
thank you

Hi devs, I have started to work on this request.
1) can we use writeHTML() function of TCPDF Library for writing the structure?
2) I'm also having an issue while importing column properties by using
in file PMA_ExportPdf.class.php
The isset($columns) is returning false. Please guide me.
