[SOLVED] Compound PDF puts last report on a seperate page.
I have 4 reports that I've combined with the PDF layout painter into 2 pages. The second page has 3 reports of fixed size as shown in the code below.
When the report is run, it will occasionally throw the last report ("report4") on a third page, aligned vertically where it should be on the second page. The report shows a blank spot on the second page where "report4" should be.
SET HTMLARCHIVE=ON COMPOUND LAYOUT PCHOLD FORMAT PDF UNITS=IN, $ SECTION=section1, LAYOUT=ON, METADATA='0.5^0.5^0.5^0.5', MERGE=ON, ORIENTATION=PORTRAIT, PAGESIZE=Legal, $ PAGELAYOUT=1, NAME='Page layout 1', text='Page layout 1', TOC-LEVEL=1, BOTTOMMARGIN=0.5, TOPMARGIN=0.5, ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE, METADATA='BOTTOMMARGIN=0.5,TOPMARGIN=0.5,LEFTMARGIN=0,RIGHTMARGIN=0,ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,', $ COMPONENT='report1', TEXT='report1', TOC-LEVEL=2, POSITION=(0.1 0.1), DIMENSION=(* *), $ PAGELAYOUT=2, NAME='Page layout 2', text='Page layout 2', TOC-LEVEL=10, BOTTOMMARGIN=0.5, TOPMARGIN=0.5, ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE, METADATA='BOTTOMMARGIN=0.5,TOPMARGIN=0.5,LEFTMARGIN=0,RIGHTMARGIN=0,ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,', $ COMPONENT='report2', TEXT='report2', TOC-LEVEL=3, POSITION=(0.1 0.1), DIMENSION=(13.0 3.5), $ COMPONENT='report3', TEXT='report3', TOC-LEVEL=4, POSITION=(0.1 2.8), DIMENSION=(13.0 3.5), $ COMPONENT='report4', TEXT='report4', TOC-LEVEL=11, POSITION=(0.1 4.75), DIMENSION=(13.0 3.5), $ END SET COMPONENT='report1' -INCLUDE app/non_op_a COMPOUND END SET COMPONENT='report2' -INCLUDE app/non_op_b COMPOUND END SET COMPONENT='report3' -INCLUDE app/non_op_c COMPOUND END SET COMPONENT='report4' -INCLUDE app/non_op_d COMPOUND ENDThis message has been edited.

Hi Jason, Experienced a similar problem. Suggest to check and reduce the Footgap of the 3rd report.

Jason,
Check out the syntax for OVERFLOW-POSITION and OVERFLOW-DIMENSION to achieve what you need.

Thanks guys...it just started working the way it should after I played with the frame sizes a little.
Didn't know about the overflow stuff, tony. Thanks.
