[CLOSED]report output issue
I have a very large report (1395 pages) which runs fine in version 7.6.5, but for some reason when I run the same report in version 7.7.03, the pdf output fails at page 1020. Every page after that one is blank. I'm assuming there is a difference in the WF versions that is causing this problem, but I'm not sure what it is. If anyone could offer any assistance, it would be most appreciated.

thanks-
Leanne Wood

Are ther PDF errors as well ?

I have seen blank pages, but this is when something went wrong, and a PDF error is showing up.

Can you reduce the report size to target a small sample to work on. Find out if the data is causing this, or the styleing you have that 7.7.03 does not like, or something else.

Hi Waz-

the only PDF error I got was when I tried to save the file. I then got an Adobe I/O error. Not sure if that helps or not.

thanks!

try FILEDEFing it and
ON TABLE HOLD as whatever FORMAT PDF
and then go look at it wherever you've filedeffed it, and see if you get your whole report.
Has your browser changed? or your adobe version?

you say 'when you tried to save the file'...
does that mean it all appeared on your screen, in reader, and then you tried to save it then?
