The previous link into tracker is no longer working. Here is a new link to the bug report in tracker. If someone is willing to point me into a starting point in the code that I can drill into to try and figure out how to resolve this issue, please do - I'm more than willing to attempt to fix it on my own, but my unfamiliarity with the internals of Jasper Reports leave me a steep learning curve to climb. Thanks, Greg

I've created a bug report in tracker for this issue.

Does anyone have any advice on this issue? Please let me know if I need to provide more information to help resolve this issue. I'm at a loss to explain the behaviour that I'm seeing.

I am working on a project that is using Jasper Reports 2.0.4 to produce official documents with stringent presentation requirements. We've run into a problem with the wrapping of text in a textfield that is set to stretch with overflow if the amount of text in the textfield causes the band to grow onto multiple pages. If the textfield uses justified textAlignment, the last line of text on the page is sometimes left justified instead of fully justified. If the textfield uses left textAlignment, the last line of text on the page sometimes ends well before it needs to. I have read numerous forum posts, the JasperReports and iReport books, the FAQ, etc. I've ensured that the fontName and pdfFontName are pointing at the same truetype font (arial). I've tried toggling the net.sf.jasperreports.export.pdf.force.linebreak.policy property. I've verified that the problem occurs whether I'm exporting to PDF or using the JasperReports Viewer. I've also tried upgrading to Jasper Reports 2.0.5. I've attached a sample .jrxml file and the PDF output. Note that at the end of page 3, a paragraph of text spans onto the next page, and rather than fully justifying the text, the last line is left justified. Some other pages in the sample have the problem, and other pages do not. How can I resolve this problem?

I'm working on a project that uses Jasper Reports 2.0.4 to fill predefined .jrxml layouts with content provided by users. The content is applied to styled text textfields in the layouts via parameters. The users have asked that we add support for horizontal rules (like the HTML <hr> tag) to their content. This would mean passing something in the styled text that is supplied to the textfield that would be rendered as a line that spans the entire width of the textfield. Is there some mechanism that would allow me to create something that looks like horizontal line spanning the width of the textfield, without needing to programmatically add line elements to the reports? Thanks in advance!
