Print preview html and pdf

Hi,

I'm using BIRT report designer 2.6 and corresponding birt-viewer. In one of my report grid columns I have dynamic text html iframe tag requesting a web page through src-tag. Designer html preview and birt-viewer html show the embedded page correctly, but print-preview show only part (upper) of the report page. If I use pdf format the embedded page disappears totally. Any clue to the problem from someone?

regards

The alternate formats are not able to collect the embedded portion. It will only work when viewed in a browser (and printed by a browser).

OK thuston, thanks for the fact that viewer does not support .xls etc. formats in this case! But the second part of the question: why does the viewer print preview (report created in html format) in browser show only upper part of the report page and also print accordingly?

The embedded page is actually an OpenLayers map coming from a web map server. It contains JavaScript, CSS and HTML. So how to deal with it in BIRT design? Is it possible at all?

A solution would be of great general value.
