Workflow Reporting Format - Multiple PDFs columns to rows

Hi and thanks in advance for helping me.  I apologize if my question has been answered a thousand times--I'm new to Alteryx and having a hard time searching for the right terms/scenarios.


I have a table like the one below from which I need separate reports for each name (names can be repeated) listing each feedback and the details of such given by peers.  

 

Recipient NameEmployee IDProviderNotes Creation DateManagerFeedback ContentVisibility
Amanda12340Paul1/1/2019PeteAmanda does graet workBoth
Frank12341John1/2/2019ConnorFrank sucksBoth
Frank12341Mark1/3/2019ConnorFrank's not THAT badManager
Martin12342George1/1/2019BobMartin has a weird nameRecipient
Martin12342Kate1/2/2019BobWho names their kid Martin?!Both
Stacy12343Ringo1/1/2019TerryStacy acts exactly how you would expect someone named Stacy to actBoth

 

The report I need to generate looks like the first one below, but all I can get my attached workflow to generate is the png on the right.  Frank.PNGFeedback - Frank.pngAny ideas how I can get the columns to list in rows as in the example document?

 

Thanks,


Patrick

Sorry, meant @Paulteryx (not fireball). 

 

Also, I think it actually is keeping these 4 fields together, but the problem I'm trying to solve now is the large gap between the groups of 4.  If there are three feedbacks to a page and the last one would run over, it creates the page break before the third but justifies the previous group (provider, date, visibility, and feedback content) down to the bottom of the page, leaving large spaces in between. I'd rather the blank space be at the bottom, but changing the orientation of "text" and "layout" to top don't seem to affect anything.

 

Any ideas?
