Problems printing landscape report

2004-05-10 10:50

Hi,

 

I had created a landscape report. When I try to print it in windows nt, it always print portrait "eating" half of the report. No matter I configure to print landscape or not.

 

Any ideas?

This problem exists in linux also... not just on windows.

Hi,

 

Does the start of your report look something like

 

<jasperReport

name="DKW_LON_ca_cpn_detail_jasper"

columnCount="1"

printOrder="Vertical"

pageWidth="842"

pageHeight="595"

orientation="Landscape"

columnWidth="802"

columnSpacing="0"

leftMargin="20"

rightMargin="20"

topMargin="30"

bottomMargin="30"

isTitleNewPage="false"

isSummaryNewPage="false">

 

Also, if you have some java code that generates the report. Have a look at the JasperPrint object being created when the report is compiled. What is the value returned of the getOrientation() method. Is it always the same ?

You need to set the pageWidth and pageHeight as well as setting the orientation.

 

i.e. if you want landscape, set the orientation to "Landscape", and switch the values in pageWidth and pageHeight.
