Regarding birt PDF Format

I am very new to BIRT.I am using BIRT with Eclipse.I have generated a Report using Database and i am displaying 10 columns from the database as a list.When i run the report ( BIRT Report Viewer )as HTML in the browser, it is displayed as expected.There we have a option to export data as word,pdf etc..When i take the PDF format , the list of data is totally collapsed meaning the columns are not displayed as we get in the html format.It asks for options like Auto,Actual Size,Fit to whole page.Is it possible to change page dimensions, including paper size, margin sizes, header size, footer size, and page orientation.Please help me.

Thanks,
Jesi

Hi Jesi,

You can do all of this in the property editor after you click on the master page tab below the design window.
