Hi all , I am newbie to the org-mode. I just today to create
a pdf file from the org-table I had. However I found that the page
did not paginate properly and only part of the data that was visible on the
buffer was converted into pdf. I am attaching the org file and the resultant
pdf. May be there is something I am doing wrong here but I really don't know.
P.S My org-mode version is 7.01h

By default, the Org-mode LaTeX exporter assumes that the length and width of a table will fit on the printed page. When this isn't the case, you'll need to override the default settings. This is discussed in the manual:
Looking at your pdf output, it appears to me that you will need to use a longtable and set the alignment. Fields with long entries can be wrapped in LaTeX with, e.g. p{1in}, where the part between the curly braces is a LaTeX length. You have 9 columns in the table, which might be a bit much for a printed page, but you would need to do something like this: #+ATTR_LaTeX: longtable align=llp{0.5in}p{0.5in}p{0.5in}p{0.5in}p{0.5in}p{0.5in}p{0.5in}, then fiddle with the length values until you have something that works.
