Exporting a landscape report to PDF

  • I have some reports that are designed in landscape and they also render that way in Report Manager.  However, when exporting out to a PDF they always display as portrait, effectively cutting of the right margin.  How do I get these reports to display with the correct orientation in a PDF?

  • We had to 1) make sure that there was not extra white space to the right of the report's columns and 2) on the File -> Report Properties -> Layout tab set the page width to 11in and the page height to 8.5in (i.e. landscape).  I don't think we did anything else to get it to work.

     

    Enjoy

  • Kevin, thanks for your reply.  I wasn't aware that the setting in Layout view was for body.  I was thinking it was the page width.  Since I had the margin settings at .5 in left and right, the rendered output was forcing to portrait.  Once I adjusted my settings so the page width = body width + left margin width + right margin width the report rendered correctly.

    It would be nice if SRS had a visual page setting display like Word or Excel.
