Hi Rudi,

What's causing it to span multiple pages? More data than will fit on one page? Or just a rendering issue of some sort?

That grid is actually a signature box. There are two row on that grid; top row is header where I put assignee names, and the other row is where the assignees would put their signature.
In one document, that signature box is printed spanned multiple pages, separating the header and the signature box.

So, you have other items above this in the report and the grid just happens to land in the middle of a page break? If so, unfortunately, I don't think BIRT currently has a way to handle this issue besides always breaking before the grid. You can search the bug/enhancement requests <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/reportabug.php'>here</a>. I'm pretty sure something like this has already been reported. If not, feel free to add an enhancement request for a setting for "never" on pagebreak within for report items.
