Ive created a report in landscape A4. In the designer and on the webpage the report seems ok (except a horizontal line doesnt stretch completly across the page)
When I print it as a pdf the report wont fit on the page, its too big. The fonts are much larger than they are on screen. Does anyone know what could be the problem ?

I don't know for sure, why, but you might try updating your PDF driver if there is a newer one. You don't say what version(s) of things you have - it might just not have a good mesh/fit when generating the PDF.
Other PDF settings to try might involve embedding fonts, or perhaps a change of typeface/font that is more standard? (try courier)
Good luck

Report designer - Printing option - chops off columns to fit in page

When I run a report from report designer, it runs perfect(can scroll to end with all the columns) - but when i try to change to print format(PDF), it chops of many columns of the report to fit into the page... I have a query with 15 columns but in the PDF i get only 4columns.
Is there any workaround to squeeze in the whole report (*might be landscape) or Is this issue addressed in any OSS or SP?
Thanks in advance folks,
Voodi

Hi Karol, thanks for the answer. Sorry for all the dumb questions, but the report designer is altogether a new animal. Not to mention I havent worked on this.
I havent specified any page size for my report. When i run the report in the portal, the web page contains all the columns and not in PDF. Where can set the page size in the report designer to determine the size of my page.
And is there a way, where i can set an option to embed the report into PDF as a landscape(not while printing, but embbeding).

Hyperion Financial Reports Image and Fit to Page

We import Saved Objects into a grid for a standard header and footer on our reports. Both the header and footer run across the entire landscape page. This works perfecting when the report is small in width. However, when we use the "fit to page" functionality to fit the report on one page, it also reduces the size of the object so that it doesn't span the page. It literally takes hours to get everything lined up perfectly so that it spans the page and still looks "okay". Has anyone else experienced this and has a good solution/work around. I litterlly want to PULL MY HAIR OUT whenever a formatting change comes in for one of these reports as I know it will take FOREVER.

Hi
Do you import them into a grid or do you import them in to the header and footer section?
Also have you tried importing them as a saved 'Image' object?
I think I've experienced similar at a client where we had highly formatted reports with a text box as the header and an image as the footer. Fortunately for us we had limited rows/columns on each report and it was accepted that some reports would span multiple pages so that the shrink to fit never actually affected the size too much.
Apart from trying the other object types if you haven't already, I'm afraid there is little you can do to ease your pain within FR. Could you do anything with the image, create ones of various sizes and test how they 'shrink', see whether you can sort it from that angle?
Hope this helps

Printing problem: "fit to page" option does not work, even from cmd

hello!
i am switching a company over to linux, that's why i am trying to make it shine as much as possible!
unfortunately i have to explain why something as simple as printing an email to one page instead of 1 and half isn't working...
no matter what i always get the same layout ... through
a) print menues which give me the option to scale to page e.g. firefox's print menue or
b) command line with the option found in (http://localhost:631/help/options.html#FIT_TO_PAGE)
lp -o fit-to-page filename
lpr -o fit-to-page filename
they both do not result in a scaled to one page output, instead i get the same result a print without any extra configuration gives me (2 pages).
i don't know where to report this problem!?
since i don't know whether it is an arch, Canon, CUPS or postscript problem ...
my setup is:
manjaro/arch linux (latest packages)
CUPS 1.7.1
canon imagerunner irc2880 - printer language = postscript
gnome 3.10
(i use the canon "cque" aur package to get the only working ppd for this printer (cel-irc2880-ps-de.ppd) [working = print both b/w & color] ... ps stands for postscript.
pls help or direct me to the right channels
THANK YOU

i have checked with another printer ... same problem
can anyone with firefox tell me whether the checked checkbox
"ignore scaling and fit to page" or something (mine is german) under:
firefox -> print... -> options
works for you?

ABAP list report wont print on Z device type with Z format

Our developer have created a report which outputs data in ABAP list format and the standard format would not fit. We have since created a custom format and copied a device type in to custom device type. So we now have a custom format and custom device type. However when we print, it spools correctly and shows as green but the report wont print. The only thing that gets printed is
"Sort criteria AscdgDescndSubtotalGRAND TOTAL : X X PROJ" "
The abap list format is Z_100_500. Basically the report has 450 columns and hence we created this format.
I am not sure what this means. I have been advised by SAP to follow instruction on note 17895 - Adapting print list formats for customers however i cant fully comprehend point 5 of the note and I believe this is why it wont print. Has anyone adapted ABAP list using this note. Can you please let me know how i should go about printer initialisation mentioned in the noted.
We have checked everything however dont seem to get around the issue. Any ideas will be appreciated

How to force a page break if report is only one page long

Hi all.
I've been asked to ensure an XMLP report is always 2 pages long, even if the data fits on one page. Does anyone know if it is possible with the Word Add-in to check if a report is only 1 page long and get it to force a page break for the extra page?
Thanks for your time,
Joy

Hello Joy,
We are working on a bi report that has duplex printing and facing the issue in skipping an extra page when printing multiple people at the same time.
Please let us know did you already have a solution for this.
Thanks in advance for your time and solution.
Best Regards,

Is There a Fit-to-Page Option in Scan?

When I scanned a government form that is on an 8.5" x 11" sheet, but has only a 1/4" left, right, top margins and 1/8" bottom margin, the preview showed the bottom 1.5" of the form and part of the text on the side margins cut off.
I selected the "Save as PDF*" option.
I could not find a Fit-to-Page or Reduction-by-Percentage options in the Scan settings. I found "Letter Portrait (8.5 x 11)" and "Entire Scan Area" options. I tried each one with the same result stated above. The "Custom Scan Size" option provided for selecting a specific Width and Length, which would have been 8.5 and 11, the same as had been previously used, therefore it was not tested.
I need all of the text on the sheet to show.

Hello @Erislandy,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I would like to assist you today with scanning the 8.5 x 11 inch sheet on your HP Officejet 5740 e-All-in-One Printer successfully without cutting off portions of the text. To resolve this issue I did some testing of my own on the Officejet 5740 printer I have here, and the following are my findings.
First, I checked into the specifications of your printer. I found that the maximum scan size through the automatic document feeder on your machine is 8.5 x 14 inches. The maximum scan size for the flatbed is 8.5 x 11.7 inches. After finding this information I performed scan tests through both the automatic document feeder and flatbed to verify if there was a significant difference in the settings.
Test 1: I chose the Save as PDF option. I set the Scan Size to Entire Scan Area and loaded the letter size sheet of paper in the automatic document feeder.
This image had a lot of blank space at the bottom and top of the sheet to account for the 8.50 x 14 inch scan size.
Test 2: I chose the Save as PDF option. I set the Scan Size to Entire Scan Area and loaded the letter size sheet of paper on the flatbed.
There is a bit of blank space at the bottom of the sheet.
Test 3: I then ran the scan tests for the 'Save as PDF' option with the Scan Size set to letter for both the automatic document feeder and the flatbed. Both tests came out almost identical.
At no time were the margins changed to cut off the text on the report.
This got me thinking that perhaps a setting conflict was occuring that was causing the text on your scanned image to crop down to a size.
If you open the HP Scan software on your computer and click Advanced Settings on the bottom left, please make sure that the Auto Crop option is not selected.
Once Auto Crop has been disabled, please click OK and perform your scan again. I found that when I ran the same test scan with Auto Crop enabled the margins were cut off. In regards to a Fit-To-Page option, there is no such setting within the software.
Please respond to this post with the result of checking your scan settings. Should the issue persist, can you please clarify if you're scanning through the flatbed, or the automatic document feeder on your product. I look forward to hearing from you!

Fit to Page Keyboard Shortcut?

I'm really missing the Cntrl+0 keyboard Shortcut for "Fit Page" in Acrobat. Can't it be reimplemented?
After we upgraded from Acrobat 8 (I believe) to 9 it disappeared, or rather changed to an incremental "Zoom In".
I've now upgraded to Acrobat X and hoped it would be back but it isn't.
All the other CS Suite (ID, AI and PS) use Cntrl+0 for fit to page and it's one of those shortcuts that's embedded in your dailyworkflow. Why take it away from Acrobat?
Thanks for any answer,
Cheers, Angus

Okay, this is getting interesting. The same thing is happening in ID. With ID I can at least change the Shortcuts. I know this ID Bug was also in my CS4. Funny thing is that was decided to be a localization problem - it was a German version. Now I've updated / returned to English, but it's still there.
Send a bug report to Adobe?

Report only printing first page.

Please Help.
After editing a report to fit onto a regular 8 1/2 * 11 inch page, the first page is all that is printing. I have tried many things yet nothing seems to work. The old report printed to a large bar type page on an old dot-matrix printer. I have set the new report to run to a smaller page on a laser printer. All fields/frames print perfect, except for not printing next page. Please help if you can.
Thank you
Rachel

Hi Chris,
Which ALV technique will you use to print out?? (LIST, GRID or something else...).
Please give us more information.
Thanks,

Urgent: Fit to Page for Printed Version

Hi All,
I have a specific requirement from the client where they want all there web reports to fit to one page when exporting to PDF. The problem we are facing is that these are highly formatted reports and there is a mixture of report items and charts. Now the problem is that the report items follow their own print layouts and there is an explicit page break before and after these items. As I understand from SAP that this is how it is going to stay and they dont plan to add this feature. We are still talking to SAP on this. If anyone can help in any way in this regard, it will be much appreciated. Can this be implemented in some way through a custom development etc.
Thanks,
Pratik

Header font goes out of column width in fit to page option for print

Hi,
I've tried to print wide report as landscape with fit to page option. it printed out good but when i saw column header, header has missed some words.for e.g my column name is "Legacy Order" and it's showing only "Legacy Or" even i wrapped that column. it's works fine with 90% scalling option.i'm still confusing because there are over 1000 reports existed and i think i will have to touch all reports to print correctly.Older version took cares all of those things.
Any idea would be great for me.
Thanks,
Jay

KDE: margins incorrect when printing because of fit-to-page option

I'm attempting to print a PDF file with Okular (happens with other KDE/Qt applications as well) to my HP Deskjet D2530 printer. The PDF has one inch margins on all sides, but when printing, additional space is added to the margins.
The page prints perfectly using lp:
$ lp /Path/to/PDF.pdf
Should also note it prints perfectly with non-KDE applications such as epdfview.
I turned on debug mode in CUPS to find what options KDE sends to CUPS. I narrowed it down to the "fit-to-page" option causing the issue.
I can reproduce the incorrect margins exactly with this command:
$ lp -o fit-to-page -o PageSize=Letter /Path/to/PDF.pdf
Now the issue I'm having is disabling this. I see nowhere in the KDE print dialog to disable fit-to-page, and have searched CUPS' documentation for a way to disable it on that end, but could not find anything. Searching for this issue has similiarly turned up nothing. I've also tried adding "fit-to-page=false" to ~/.cups/lpoptions with no result. I can't be the only one who has dealt with this. Is there some configuration option I'm missing somewhere or should I report this as a bug upstream?

hello!
i have a similar problem:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p1402373
for me the fit to page cmdline option does not apply and the output is always bigger than one page ... same goes for print menues with the option to turn on/off fit to page ...
