Page Setup button in Report Viewer object

I have develop a Windows Form Application that have a Report Viewer object
that rendering a report .rdlc.
I have a problem with the PageSetup Button. The button for set the layout of
the page. If I click that button the type of the page is on Letter format and
i must always set the margin on A4 format of the page before print the
report. But that appends in someone PC...unfortunately it appends on the PC
of the client (in the driver of the printer the page layout is set to A4).
How I can resolve that problem?
Another problem is the set of the margin in PageSetup Button.
If I click on 'Page setup' button the margins left & right are not what I
set on the rdlc file at design time (0,5cm) they are 2 mm
If I click OK on the 'Page Setup' form the Report margins change to the
margins from 'Page setup'
If I open ''Page setup' again the margin settings are now less than
previously set and clicking OK results in the report margins changing again
The margin change from 2 to 0,8 -> from 0,8 to 0,3 -> from 0,3 to 0,1 ->
from 0,1 to 0.
I have Visual Studio 2005 service pack 1Are you doing the 'ChangeService' voodoo that needs to be done to save the
report?
Check 'www.gotreportviewer.com' for an example at what you are doing.
I am no expert at SSRS myself.. just started my fight with it last week so...

Page Rendering

Appologies for the Newbie question...However here we go...
I've a report that looks just great in Visual studio, but when I export it
to pdf things go south. The page breaks that are correct in the preview are
now incorrect in the pdf and there are blank pages mingled in the report.
Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do to try to fix this.
StanYea, the page is probably too big to render it to a A4 / US Letter format
(whatever you use). You have to calculate the borders and the page width to
get the estimated output. In Germany we have the A4 format which is about 21
cm in width. If you make the viewable are about 20 cm and the borders ar
each 2 cm the page will exceed to 24 cm and a new page has to be put in
while rendering. Try to narrow the borders.

> Stan|||I have a similar problem. Report looks great in Visual studio and in a
Browser, but when I convert it to pdf for printing, I am getting extra pages
in between with just a header printed on those pages.
I tried decrease the size of the report and make sure that it fits into 8
1/2 x 11 inches, but it did not help. I still have those annoying empty pages
in the printed report.
Any other suggestions on how can I fix it?
Thank you.

I have recently heard there is a bug which requires this ( until MS fixes
it.)
