A4 page - Vertical strech for supported formats?

[hq4ever]

Hello Jasper Team,

I would like to configure a report that will export to PDF, CSV, HTML.

 

Inside the report I would like to print thinkgs like:

| Col 1 | col 2 |...|col n|

| val1 | val2 |...|val n|

The "normal" page size of the report is A4, yet when exporting to HTML I don't want to have several HTML pages but instead a 1 long scrolling to the right page. As for PDF current jasper solution would be great.

 

What can be doen to have this kind of behaviour from Jasper?

 

Thank you,

Maxim.

You can set the ignoreWidth property of the crosstab, see details at http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/schema.reference.html#crosstab.

Note though that doing that will not play well with PDF.

Hello lucianc,

Thank you for the pointing this out.

 

Is there some mode in which jasper could actually export the growing crosstab into a new page?

 

The out marking requirement is for jasper to act as excel, meaning: You can select large area and then it would print the selection in several pages so that if you place them on the table once right to the other you will see that same information you have on the screen.

 

Any ideas about such extension possibility?

 

The question is relevant for "normal" text fields as well, say I wanted to created a page (size A4) but which takes more space. Can't jasper be development to just auto magically know to break my report into several pages in print?

There's no such functionality at the moment, but we're considering it.  See http://jasperforge.org/projects/jasperreports/tracker/view.php?id=4368
