I'm using tcpdf to creat a pdf version of the html table below.

How do I word wrap the text in the cells?

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
  <style type="text/css">
        table.frm {
            width: 960px;
            Height:400px;
            margin-left: auto;
            margin-right: auto;
            border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;

            font-size: 11px;
        }
        table.frm th {
