[Chetan Pawar]

Hello All,

Is telerik reporting latest tool have feature to modify paper size (width/height) of exporting report to PDF file, generating using Code?
As in my requirement columns may be more to fit in general A4 paper size page. So I have to change the width or orientation of page (to landscape) while generating PDF file.

Please provide help.

Thank you in advance.

Hello Chetan,

You can change both the orientation and PaperKind of the report through the exposed properties - PageSettings --> LandScape and PageSettings --> PaperKind. Page size is not involved in the layout calculations and is used only for paging, so consider the following code for altering the report definition width:

Dim oReport As Telerik.Reporting.Report = New TestReport
       oReport.PageSettings.Landscape = True
       oReport.PageSettings.PaperKind = Drawing.Printing.PaperKind.A3

       ' Change Report Width according to the new Page Size
       Dim w As Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.Unit
       If oReport.PageSettings.Landscape Then
           w = oReport.PageSettings.PaperSize.Height - oReport.PageSettings.Margins.Top - oReport.PageSettings.Margins.Bottom
       Else
           w = oReport.PageSettings.PaperSize.Width - oReport.PageSettings.Margins.Left - oReport.PageSettings.Margins.Right
       End If
       oReport.Width = w

       ReportViewer1.Report = oReport
