I need your help with my RTF file for Oracle BI Publisher.
I have an RTF report that contains 2 types of page size, portrait and landscape. The problem I have is that if the pages are empty, it continues to display the pages. I do not have spaces between the pages, I made sure of it, and I have a condition that does not seem to be respected with a . This makes me this problematic only on this change between portrait and landscape. Is there any way I can tell if the landscape page is empty, do not display it?
Right now, my RTF is like this. 2 pages portraits -> 1 page landscape -> 3 pages portraits. I want to hide my empty pages, I get there for the first 2 pages, but it does not do for the landscape page and the next one that comes back to portrait.
Thank you for your help.

I have two things I have been using, neither of which are keeping the image/table exactly where I placed it within the text in R markdown when knitted to a pdf.
 will place the image where there is space on the page. That is, if the page has space, the image will print between the desired text. However, if the page does not have the space, the text is placed to fill the page and then the image awkwardly inserts itself in the middle of the paragraph on the next page.
I am having a similar problem with my kable tables. I have tried using latex_options = 'hold_position', but this seems to only keep my tables from grouping together.
Is there a way to have my table stay between the text that I want? So if it needs to start a whole new page, to fit it, it can without trying to fill the space with the text below.
Thank you in advance.
When I set the database image Sizing property to 'Fit Proportional' and export the document to WORD some of the database images fail to render. If on the other hand the image sizing property is 'Fit to Size' then all the images always render when exported to WORD. I eliminated all report elements except the image in the body but the results are the same.
Additional Info: The image is not nested in a rectangle or table. The DB images originated as jpegs and are stored as VARCHAR(max).
I think the issue is more of a Word problem than SSRS. When you say "some" images fail to render when set to "Fit Proportional" that makes me think that the image is too large to fit on the page therefore not displaying.
I would guess the images that don't go beyond the margins of the page are the ones that display properly.
HTH
I also had this problem. I was trying to export to Word and some images were not showing while others were. I found this thread:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/211c2ee1-30a7-4c42-88bd-88333a6fe988/missing-images-in-headerfooter-when-exporting-to-word-in-ssrs-2008-r2?forum=sqlreportingservices
Someone suggesting reducing the image size before importing it into SSRS. That worked for me, so it might help you.
I am not a programmer and I use iMacro for this but I have one problem:
Each time a page loads, it loads 1 out of 4 images randomly, each image has different name, you can't see image name in address (I see it using tools >>> page info >>> media), I would really appreciate if someone could tell me how to do this:
Make iMacro click on different place on image based on that image name? (each image has a hidden element that can be clicked, position is fixed though)
Please help ???
I have a SSRS RDL that is formated to fit on a three column lable sheet. When exported to PDF the 2nd column is not populated and on the next page the 2nd column is the only column populated. This continues to happen for as much data as I have. Has anyone had any problems with this or might have an idea on where the problem might be?
These kinds of quirks are usually related to the margins. Make sure that the actual label area does not exceed the page size, accounting for the margins. Also, printer drivers can cause a similar issue because of content-to-page-size issues, where the report shows correct on-screen but when printing, shifts content to a new page.
This is because of page setup properties. For example if a page is set to letter size(8.5in X 11in) and left and right margins to 1 inch. then you have adjust you report body size to 6.5 inch or below, if it exceeds above 6.5 inch, then leads to split data to other pages when exported to PDF.
I have a SSRS 2005 report form that is printing to a Zebra ZDesigner TLP 2844-Z label printer. The Interactive and Page sizes are set to 4" wide by 3" high. Since there is no paper orientation in SSRS, it is assuming this to be a landscape report when it should be a portrait thereby printing the labels sideways.
The users are able to export to a PDF and print after adjusting the print settings, but the extra clicks to produce/print the pdf's are unacceptable.
Is there a way to force the print job to print portrait or another workaround/trick to do this?
Can you just set your Page width to be 3" and your height to 4" ? (Not your Interactive Size, your Page Size)
How are you designing the report? There should be a property to modify for paper orientation in the report's properties...
From MSDN
So what defines a portrait vs. landscape report? If the PageHeight is less than the PageWidth, then it is landscape, otherwise it is portrait. It is important to understand that Reporting Services has no notion of the rotation of the paper in the printer. It is up to the applications that consume the output (Acrobat reader, print control) to determine the correct printer settings to best render the specified page size.
Note that the DeviceInfo settings can be used at report rendering time to override the page sizes in the definition. This is how the client print control works when you change margins or page size. In SP2 and SQL 2005 Reporting Services, the default page sizes are extracted from the definition at publish time and written to the ReportServer database as custom properties on the report. While you can programmatically change these via the SetProperties method on the web service, they will be overwritten if the report is republished (unlike parameter and datasource information).
I have a similar printer with a similar problem. Change the report orientation to portrait (the numbers will be backward). Then when you run the report click page setup. Change the size from "USER" to either "custom" or "template" (depending upon your printer). You should then be able to use your printer properties to change the size of the labels.
To prevent the SSRS WinForms ReportViewer from rotating your printed labels, use a square page. If the length and width are the same, ReportViewer will not rotate. I found that when I expanded the page size for my 2.5" x 1" label to 2.5" x 2.5", the print was oriented correctly on the stock and there was no waste. Perhaps Zebra's driver clips the blank area.
I also tried designing a rotated label using Text Box's WritingMode = Rotate270. That didn't help.
