Landscape reports with Jasper

2004-02-16 00:24

when printing with landscape the left margin is always cut.

 

I've put in

 

pageHeight=595

pageWidth=842

leftMargin = 20

rightMargin =20

 

..and then my (for eg.) line

...x="0" y="10" width="800" height="0"

 

and the left of my printed page is cut off??

How do I correct this???

Hi,

 

Try the /demo/samples/landscape example provided.

Does it get cut the same way?

 

I hope this helps.

I have tried the landscape sample and it still cuts the left off.

I also tried to print a portrait report to see if the same thing would happen and it printed out fine.

 

I have shuffled the co-ords around to make it fit but I don't feel that is the solution.

 

eg pageWidth="842"

pageHeight="595"

leftMargin="30"

rightMargin="10"

 

...and then fit in the text/lines/rectangles etc accordinly...

 

Should I just do that???

I've experienced problems printing out landscape format, too. I solved my problem by printing out using the JasperExportManager (exporter.exportReport();) instead of the JasperPrintManager. It may work for you, too.

To overcome the exception i updated code as below

JasperExportManager.exportReportToPdfFile(jasperPrint,"C:/myreport.pdf");
 response.setContentType("application/pdf");

 

But still when i open the generated report and view the print properties..it shows portrait...still...but it should be set to landscape ...does iReport support this?

Hi friends...

The option works..the printed document is in landscape format..but in print properties it shows portrait...

If we get the o/p in landscape thts fine for us as of now..thx
