Different PDF format when generated with and without viewer

<div>I've a simple report with only one table and paper size set as A4. On the viewer the PDF format is correct but when generated by calling a Java class, the alignment is messed up. It has huge margin on the right, tried setting margin to 0, align center... but no luck</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here is the Java code </div>
<div> </div>
<pre class="_prettyXprint">
PDFRenderOption pdfOptions = new PDFRenderOption();
pdfOptions.setOutputFormat(RenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_PDF);
pdfOptions.setEmitterID(RenderOption.OUTPUT_EMITTERID_PDF);
pdfOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PAGE_OVERFLOW, IPDFRenderOption.FIT_TO_PAGE_SIZE);
pdfOptions.setOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());

</pre>
<p> I'm using Birt 4.4.0</p>

<p>Are you using the RunAndRender task or separate Run and Render tasks?</p>

<p>Thank you for your reply.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes, I'm using RunAndRender task. Here is the class file <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://github.com/joshlong/spring-birt/blob/master/spring-birt-integration/src/main/java/org/eclipse/birt/spring/core/AbstractSingleFormatBirtView.java'>https://github.com/joshlong/spring-birt/blob/master/spring-birt-integration/src/main/java/org/eclipse/birt/spring/core/AbstractSingleFormatBirtView.java</a></p>

<p>How are you calling PDF from the viewer? Exporting the report after running in the viewer? Or using the format=pdf url parameter? If the URL approach, are you using "frameset" in the URL or "run"?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If exporting to PDF or using a frameset URL, you might try using separate run and render tasks. Is there any way you can attach a sample report that uses the classic models sample database that I can run so I know I will see the issue? Thanks.</p>
