Text export problem

2006-01-04 15:04

When exporting a report to a text file, it is creating random blank lines between detail lines. Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

In my experience, it is important that the height and width defined for the page is proportional to height and width defined for the character and for text fields.

 

For example:

If your exporterParameter are set like this:

exporterTXT.setParameter(JRTextExporterParameter.CHARACTER_WIDTH, new Integer(10));

exporterTXT.setParameter(JRTextExporterParameter.CHARACTER_HEIGHT, new Integer(18));

 

and you want a record lenght = 158 and a page lenght = 66

If you have to set a page 1580 (158 * 10) width and 1188 height (18 * 66).

..and remember to set all your textfields 18 height.

I hope it could be useful
