Text fields do not stretch in Jasper Report

Hello all,

I am facing an issue with one of our Jasper Reports. There is a text field inside a table that has to be stretched according to the length of the text. I have given the textAdjust property as "Stretch Height" and also the Stretch Type but it doesnt work in the pdf format. In HTML, it works fine. I checked the Print Order of the jrxml as well and it is Vertical. Can somebody please give any suggestion in that? 

Thanks,
