Problem with Reports Layout when E-Mailed/Exported to File

Post by iStevie » 07 Sep 2011, 17:28

Hi,

I have a strange problem which i have just noticed but it only happens when i export a purchase order to a file/E-Mail.

The report footer section displays half way up the last page overlapping other text when the purchase order contains an S3 item that takes up more than a page of details. If i preview the order in Sage it displays perfectly with the report footer aligned to the bottom of the last page, however when i export it to a PDF file or as an E-Mail (PDF Attachment) the problem occurs.

Is this likely to be a bug with Sage Report Designer and how it exports PDF files or is there something that can be done within report designer to prevent it from happening/correct the issue?

I am using Sage 50 Accounts Pro 2012 and Report Designer V1.3

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Steve.

Sounds like a PDF driver issue.

S3 items bigger than a page sound a pretty rare thing. Perhaps split it into 2 S3 items and only put a price on one of them?

fiddling might resolve it but you could spend hours and get nowhere.
