I've thrown together a homegrown Reporting Services viewer that is basically a wrapper for a browser control. It will reside in our app alongside the Crystal report viewer until we have phased out Crystal.
View 3 RepliesI have deployed a report that is configured for landscape printing. It does print in landscape, however, only the first seven columns appear on the first page and the other five columns appear on the next page. Is there a method, like in print preview setup in MS Excel, where we can scale down the print (like to 80%) so all columns appear on each page?
Thanks!
Hello
I have a report which I can print on legal paper, once I choose the landscape settings on print menu. When the same report is set to export to a file share in pdf format, it renders in portrait format. Is it possible to have the pdf document look like the landscape view so that the user can just hit print.
Thanks

I have a report that needs to be on landscape, but am only limited to printing portrait style when I render a PDF report in reporting services. Is it possible to render a report in landscape or even better, size the PDF via reporting services.

I am trying to set default print settings for a report on Reporting services.
I need to make to make a page print out on landscape by default.
I cant seem to find this option anywhere.
My company has a .Net app that embeds the reportwriter for displaying (and printing) reports. This seems to work fine visa vis printing reports in landscape mode, although odly if you look at the printer properties it SAYS it is priting in portrait. In any case, the problem comes when this default reportwriter isn't used but rather an rdl file is generated programmatically. No matter what width and height settings we use, the document unfailingly prints in portrait mode. I've looked to see whether there is any way to force the printer mode, but it seems there isn't, at least not through an rdl. Or what SHOULD work (setting the width larger than the heigh) does not. I'm wondering if anyone else here has run into difficulties like this if there are any solutions or places I might look for answers? Thanks!
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is a really strange problem. There are some reports that work fine when I click the print button provided by the Report Manager but trying to print the report by clicking on print button located by the export causes my computer to reboot. Is there a resolution?
The report can be successfully printed if exported to pdf.
Hi, This is because there are many columns need to display ,when users export to excel ,now they have to manually adjust the worksheet as one page . Therefore,as the title,can anyone help me?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi, I need help please!
Apologies for the silly question.
I have a problem where i need to show 18 columns in 1 row but can get it in one row, the most the user wants is 2 rows but the first 4 columns cant be touched.
eg.
row1 Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5 Col6 Col7 Col8 Col9 Col10 Col11
row2 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
I am kind of lost on how to show this in a nice format.
Does anyone have any creative idea, as i would like to capture the users.
The Fields are also lengthy so it makes it difficult.
Please!

I have a report that is setup to print landscape.
I deploy to Report Manager, print it, and everything works great.
If I create a linked report from the deployed report, the linked report prints portrait.
Does anyone know of a workaround or am I just doing something wrong?
Thanks!!

We have a report that prints correctly (in landscape) in the folder that is deployed to but the linked report in a different folder prints in portrait?
can anyone shed some light on this.
The goal is to produce a single PDF consisting of a number of subreports. Some are landscape, others are portrait. The subreports may also be run as independent reports. The master report defaults to the width of the widest subreport, which is landscape. This causes all portrait subreports to spill over. Your suggestions / comments are appreciated.
Thanks!
I have a report that I need to develop in landscape format. Also I need it to be landscape when converting to PDF and taking printouts. let me know the exact height and width measurements in inches for the report and report body?
I need the margin to be 0.5 inch.
Hello,
I am trying to print a report in landscape mode from VS 2003 from designer preview or at run time. The users don't want to change a mode manually. I tried to make width 11 or 11.5 in and height 8.5in with zero margins and 0.5in (tried a lot of combinations) - doesn't work! still printing in portrait. Please help! Thank you
I'm wondering how to print a SSRS report without bringing up a report viewer. Is there way to print(PDF format) the SSRS report in the web application( .net ) directly from the "print" button without bringing up a report viewer?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I dont know if theres a way to print a section of some report, for example a summary report, where I have several charts and tables, and I want to print just the first 2 charts
Could this be done by mapping the document or separating it in some other way?
I tried using 'SubReports' control, but this way I need to have for example the first two charts in a different report (lets say 2charts.rdl), and then in the summary.rdl, add the control and set the link to 2charts.rdl,.... but I think this is pretty annoying considering the future modifications of the format in the 2charts.rdl...
Thanks for your help...

A user was created with a limited privilege under the USERS group. Once this user loged in the Report Manager he is acting like an Admin and Content Manager, though he is not given even a browser role.
What do u think that this guy is acting like a Super User evenif he is restricted to a browser role on the Report Manager ????????????
I did all my best, but no luck so far
is there any way to schedule to print reports every morning from ssrs?

hi all.
how can i send a report, (stored on the reporting server) to print?
i know i can render it, but i want to print it , is it possible?
I am looking for a way to, at execution, have 1 single report either print in "letter" or "A4" depending on a parameter I send it... anyone have an idea on where to start on this?
Thank you,

we have a vb app that displays reports yet when you try and print the report it either doesn't do so (although it appears to queue it) or it prints but with info missing and control info in odd spots. Anyone have any clues as to how to resolve this? My reports do me no good if the developers can't make the apps access them via the applications they are developing.

Is there any parameter that we can pass in the report Url to directly print a report?
As we give Format=Excel for exporting the report to excel, is there any parameter to Print.
hi all.
how can i print a report from c# code?

Does anyone know, or direct me to an example of, how to print a SERVER report directly to a printer from a windows application? There are plenty of examples on the internet that shows how to do this with a local report but a SERVER report seems to be a whole other animal.
Thanks,
Mark
The code below is a class file done in vb.net. The original idea came from reading this forum and some blogs.
To use the code below, you can create a windows application or service.
then create a class file and drop this code in it.
Remeber to reference the 2005 report execution service and also in the program settings include the path to your server.
IE: ReportExecutionService = http://localhost/ReportServer/ReportExecution2005.asmx or whatever your server URL is at.
Setup the public properties for printername (sharenames work fine), Number of copies and Report name.
That is all there is to it. This code is REALLY expandable to add more options.
Please remember to let me kow if you like this.

Hi there,
I'm working on an invoice report, that requires borders around the whole report. I've got header, footer and body in the report. In the body section, i've got a table which shows line items for an invoice. So the table grows as per the no. of lines in the invoice. As said before I've got to have border around the report. I tried put info in ractangles with borders for header/footer and table with borders in body section. The borders appears fine for headers and footer ractangles but as the table grows/shrinks, border from body section is not continuous to the footer section. i.e. For an invoice with 2 line items the borders for table will appear for two lines only but i want it to be scratched up to the footer area regardless of no. of line items in the invoice.
I've also tried to use borders for header, footer and body sections itself rather than using ractangles. But then when i export the report to pdf and print from pdf, it looks fine but when i tried to print from report manger its missing right hand side border for page header, footer and body. I've made sure there is enough margin around report. Report body/header/footer are 19 cm wide that's mean the report still have 2 cm of space for margins. The left/right margin are 0.5 cm.
I've been trying to do various things for last 2 weeks but not getting anywhere. Can i anyone please help into this?
Thanks,
Vivek
Hi All,
