Page break problem while printing report

Hi,
I have problem with reports splitted in birt viewer into more than one page.
For example my report is splitted into 2 pages in birt viewer (please see attached file screen0.png) everything is ok.
After printing report I get 4 pages, new page breaks are created but unfortunately printed report inherits also page breaks from viewer creating blank spaces (in this example shuld be 3 pages insted of 4).
Please see attachment screen1.png to understand what I mean.

Viewer Version : 2.3.1

Please help.

Hi Max,

How are you printing off the report? Can you recreate this issue with the sample database?

I've attached an example.
I'm printing it using "Print report" icon in Report Viewer.
While printing attached report to HTML I got 3 pages, to PDF got 5 pages.
In both cases each Report Viewer page is a new page in the printed out copy (even if there are blank spaces).

Maybe the solution would be to remove splitting into pages in the Report Viewer? Bu I don't know if it's possible.

Max,

When you choose PDF, instead of auto, choose "fit to whole page" in the drop down. That should make it print correctly.

The problem is solved.
Blank empty spaces in pdf format were generated because the Page Break Interval for table was set to 40.
