Different spacing between records when generating PDF

[fuzziusz]

Hello,

I have quite simple report designed in IReport (5.1.0). When I checked it as IReport internal preview everything is OK. But when I generate PDF I can see that spaces between records are not equal.

It is quite strange and I just don't have idea what is going on?

It doesn't seem that it depends on record value.
Can somebody help?

Here is what it looks like (from PDF):
 

 

Report code:

I  think  u have left same space after the  field name in the band.

if u compress that band to the field names that u will get avoid the extra space ..

No.

There is only some space that is desirable by me ("small space").

But why on PDF (and only on PDF) this space is sometimes larger?
