Does Telerik reporting change the report size paperkind automatically based off of the users printer settings? For example, if I design the report using letter paperkind, and a user in Europe goes to export the report to PDF, does the reporting engine know to convert it to A4 if that is what thier default printer uses?
Essentially, the problem I am facing is I designed the report based on one measurement (letter), but when Europeans export the document to PDF, its in the A4 measurement. So the margins are wider in the A4 measurement.
Any best practices when designing reports for multiple users who use different paper sizes. All reports are always viewed in PDF.

Hello Dan,
The PaperKind in Telerik Reporting is initially predefined by design, so that you can have a better control over the layout. However nothing stops you from defining your own page settings or even delete the ones defined in the InitializeComponent() method. For example the following line of code would initialize new page settings that would get the info from the default printer settings:
InitializeComponent();
this.PageSettings = new Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.PageSettings();
All the best,
