@souravg2765 - When generating the PDF based upon the DSS setting UseCompactStylesForPDF the styles will be added to the data which we are passing.
If the DSS is false or empty then application skin styles will be passed.
If DSS is true then the styles will be picked up from pyCompactStylesForPDF css file.
To understand more what styles are actually coming during run time, trace the PDF generation and in HTMLToPDF any step open the parameter page and check for Markup. This Markup data only will be passed for PDF generation , It holds html content and can easily find out what styles are causing this issue.
Thank you.

@souravg2765 - To investigate which styles or css causing the issue when generating the PDF we need to verify Markup parameter.
To capture markup value enable the tracer and generate the PDF . In activity HTMLToPDF any step open the parameters page and search for Markup. Share that markup value to understand why alignment issues are seen.
Thank you.

In side the PEGA only in the rich text editor if you add any table with the heading and keep it in center, left or right align after generating this document in pdf the table heading is miss aligned.
It is happening only in rich text editor where we are not add any external style. That is PEGA default feature.

@souravg2765 Pega default behaviour it is to follow. RTE works as it is when i was with the Pega that time also we raised that issue with internal team to look into that. You should use table with CSS alignments
