SSRS 2005 PDF Export Issue

Question

Good Afternoon,

My report's page size is 8.5" by 11" with .5in margins all around. When I preview the report in BIDS, it renders in portrait. A change to landscape in page setup fixes this.

However, when I export to PDF and view it in Acrobat, the last column of my report rolls to page 2. Instead of a 2 page report, I have a 4 page report with the last column on pages 2 and 4.

I've searched this site and others and could not find any fixes for this. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks much!

Answer 1

When in layout mode, what is the width of your report? If your page size is 8.5" with .5" margins all the way around, the maximum width of your report is 7.5".

I've run into the same type of issue before, and it turned out that the width of my report was just a smidge over 7.5".

Answer 2

Set the Interactive Size and Page Size properly for the report
