Report should span on multiple pages across?

The report is very long across.
I need to force Crystal Reports to use size of the paper = two legal landscape to have it printed, so
user can glue them together in case that it's wider than Legal landscape.

Do I make sense?

Have you considered making the 2nd have of the report a sub-report? You could find the page-break, put all the info and rpt fields for the 2nd half in the sub-rpt, and print two pages.

Is this the way? I have so much data that hardly running already.
Seems strange that "industry standard tool" doesn't allow such a simple way of showing long reports.
I think I remember I was doing something like creating custom size of paper back in CR7 days. I work with Seagate Info 7 now and couldn't find this option in it.
 
I believe you can change the paper width/height under File, Page Setup. You could try playing around with this. Right now you have it setup as Landscape, and have your rpt configured the way you want it?

Not at all. It's landscape, but two landscape accross.
As far as File|Page Setup, that can change a margin only. The way I remember I was doing in CR7 is by adding custom name/size into some kind of text file. Then it can be picked up by print setup. Looks like Seagate Info is missing this.
