Page break and subreports

I have a main report that calls subreports. When a subreport has enough data such that it will not fit into the remaining area of the current page the renderer inserts a page break leaving alot of ugly white space. Is there any way to sop this behaviour? This seems like a very basic thing.

not sure is this is the exact reason, but are u using 8.5 * 11 layout for subreport also, if yes u need to decrease it as per your req. because a ful page cannot be accomodated in a page and so ssrs inserts a page break

Priyank,

All of the subreports and the main report for that matter are 8.5 x 11 but what would I change them to? Let me give you an example of my problem. Lets say the first sub report takes up three inches of the first page when rendered. If the second sub report takes up less than the remaining space (5.5 inches) it prints on the same page otherwise it page breaks and starts on a new page. Since the subreports can vary in rendered length depending on data I have no idea what their size will be.

Another thread stated that subreports operate under and assumed KeepTogether. While this may explain what is happening it does not resolve the issue.

Overlapping of PDF

I have few reports that I want to get into a single PDF. I am clubbing all of
them as subreports in a single parent report. Then I convert that report to
PDF using SOAP API.
I would like to mention some points :
- I have properly placed rectangles (with 0 inch height and Page Break At
End property set to true) as pagebreaks.
- Also the combination of reports is such that some will fit in a Protrait
while others in Landscape.
The problems I am facing :
- On publishing them to the server, they just look fine. When I try to
render that to PDF, I dont know why they just overlap somewhere.
- Another problem is that the quality of the PDF. It seems to get
distorted(though the printout seems decent). This will definitely be a
problem if the user prefers an online copy of the report.
Can you help me out?Would it be possible for you to send me the rdls, rdl.data file, and the PDF
directly?
Without more information I don't think I can recommend anything to you.
