Page Size

Hi,
In crystal reports, I can define page size (letter size or legal size) and
page orientation (Langscap or Prortrait) so the preview exactly looks like
the final print.
Is it possible to do that in MSRS?
To re-word the question, How can I define the page size (letter size or
legal size) and page orientation (Langscap or Prortrait) at design time in
Microsoft Reporting services ?
Thank you,
AlanIn VSNET, open a report in designer, click menu "Report->Report
Properties...", then "Layout" tab.

Page Size

Hi,
How can I define Page Size.Orientation in Report Designer?
I am looking for some way to define letter/legal size paper and also
Landescap/Portrate paper orientation.
Can users change those printig attributes when they are printing/expoting
that to PDF file?
Thank,
AlanYou can change the page width and page height to 11 x 8.5 instead of 8.5 x
11 inches in the report designer. You can find these properties in the
Report | "Report Properties..." menu item, select the Layout tab.
A user can change the Rendering attributes when they view a report via the
ReportServer web service. For example, to retrieve a PDF report rendered
with a height of 15 inches instead of the default 11 inches, a user would
use this URL:
http://servername/ReportServer?/Project1/Test_Report1&rs:Command=Render&rs:F
ormat=PDF&rc:PageHeight=15in
The user's printer settings is up to them but it would look best if the
rendering parameters match the printer parameters. For more information
see the Reporting Services Device Information Settings page on MSDN:

Page Orientation Problem

How can I have my main report in Portrait and my subreport , who creates a new page, in Landscape. Is it possible ??
Thank you for your helpI don't thing so. How would you send a job to the printer that is both portraint and landscape?|||you got a point here..|||Well I thought so anyway! :lol:|||i give up.. :( I'll try to resize it to fit portrait

Page Orientation in Multipage report

Tweaking a report that was imported from Crystal Reports. Report has three pages, the first two are landscape, the last page is portrait.

Can this be done in RS or will I have to split up the report to render the 1st two pages separately from the last page (in two reports)?

Thanks in advance.

My two cents worth: It would really really be nice if RS had 1.) a rich text box and 2.) the ability to rotate labels and text boxes.

The page sizes in SSRS are at the report level, so you could not do that within 1 report.

It would be very nice to be able to change that at a page level.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have added my three cents worth!

Page orientation for physical pages

Hello,
I need to design a single report (PDF) which must have both landscape and portrait orientation.

For what I know the page size is defined and static for all pages of the same report (RDL). Is there any workaround (I'm using Sql2005) ?

Thanks,
Pierre

You are right the page size defined in the rdl can't be expression and apply to all pages. One possible workaround is to use deviceinfo to specify page size and the page range. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms154682(SQL.90).aspx. For example, you can specify one page size to get page 1-3 of the report, and a different size to get a different set of pages.

Hello Fang,
thanks for the reply. For what I know I can define one deviceinfo setting per report. How can I define the device info setting the page 1 with a different PageHeight and PageWidth than the page 2 and 3 on the same deviceinfo ?

Thanks,
Pierre

page orientation

Design a report by setting the layout with:

width = 8.5 in

height = 3 in

By default, the page orientation will set to "landscape"

Is there anyway to code it and make the page orientation to "potrait"?

thanks for the reply.

Hi Charlotte,

Orientation is always set based on your page width and height.

If you can't increase the page height, you can do something similar to this:

Good luck!

Page Orientation

I'm using Crystal Reports 8.5 using RDC. I have several reports in my program, some are Portrait orientation, others are Landscape. This program is distributed to about 20 different computers.

On at least 1 or 2 computers, a report that was designed to be in Landscape is previewing in Portrait. On all the other computers, the report previews normally (in Landscape). Could this be a result of a corrupted or out of date Crystal dll? If so, which one? Could it be because of the printer driver installed?

Does any one have any other ideas on what could cause the report to preview incorrectly? (The computer in question is running WinXP).

Thanks!I think it depends on the printer setup of the Client machine
