Reducing the size of rptdocument

kumaresh

Hi

I would like to know what factors influence the size of a rptdocument of a BIRT design file.
My target is to reduce the size of rptdocument as much as possible.

For one of my reports, i have to use 4 groupings in a single table. And for certain set of parameters, the rptdocument generated is of size 14 MB. If i delete one group and run the report with 3 groups in the table, the rptdocument gets reduced to 4 MB.

Is there any way to combine the values used for "Grouped On" so that multiple groupings can be contained in a single group?
is there any other way to bring down the size of a rptdocument?

If you created a field in your result set that combined the fields into a single field, you could probably just group on that single field to get the same or similar results.
