HI all,

I have a situation to export the report to PDF.
Since my report has many fields in details section i hve to minimizxe the length they occupy in cr. If i export it to pdf i see only the compressed part of the field.however i wnat to see the whole filed.

Thanks in advance
 
A pdf export will be a pretty good copy of whatever you exported. This is different from Excel, which holds the data and lets you expand the cells.

What you could do is a special version of the report, suitable for export. Maybe with several detail sections, so you can show the full details for each record.

Hi

Thanks for the reply.
suppose I have 30 fields per row.
now if i divide them in to different details section then it will be like 10 rows per detail section and now what we are showing as a single row will be divided in to 3 rows.

Our client is not accepting this he wants the same way as shown in excel in pdf.

if you find any other work around I am happy to do it.

Thanks a ton
 
I don't think pdf does that. Sorry.

If you set up the report to use a printer like the one in thread149-1217090 (see SV's post), you should be able to export to pdf as desired, I would guess (I didn't test this).
