Exporting Reports

  • I set up a report and when I run the report it looks great. I then attempt to export the report to PDF or Tiff and everything looks great except that after every page there is an extra page that is blank. My page count goes from 34 in the report to 68 in the exported report. Does anyone have any ideas what may cause this issue? I checked the page layout and it is fine.

    Frustrated in Phoenix.

  • You have to verify that the page width + margins does not exceed the page size.

  • Thanks, that was my first thought and I ended up making my report 9X8 in landscape so that it wouldn't go outside the margins. It still does the same thing.

    Any other ideas.

  • making my report 9X8 in landscape

    Do you mean you changed a pagesize property of the report to 9x8?

  • Yes, that is correct. My first report was cutting off at the end and the second part was showing up on the second page and then a third blank page. When I modified the report to shrink the columns I also changed the page properties to 9X8. I was still receiving the blank page after each page of data.

  • That would be the problem.

    In report properties Layout Tab you have to change the report size to 11 (page width) by 8.5 (page length). Then set margins.

    Then verify that the actual report width in report designer + margins is less than 11.

    If originally report was designed for portrait you would also have to change the interactivesize property to be the same as on the layout tab.

    There is no other reason for the empty pages other than the page size settings.

  • Thank you. I will try this out as soon as I can.
