Fit table contents in the report
RepBIRT
If the columns in the table are more, than how to display the entire table columns in the table layout without splitting it. All the table columns should be visible in the same row in all the ouput formats.

I'm not sure I'm understanding. Are you wanting to shrink your table to fit the page size for every layout? Or are you wanting to expand the page to fit your table? Can you explain a little more in detail? Thanks!

Hi,<br />
<br />
Actually, there are more columns in the table and all the rows have to be displayed together.<br />
The options can be any one as you said<br />
<br />
1) Table must fit to page size or<br />
2) Page size can be extended to embed all the rows.<br />
<br />
Can we reduce font size for each report type(like 7pt for pdf type & 8 pt for doc type)?

You could apply different style sheets depending on the output. You could also create different master pages that work according to the different outputs and assign them based on the output.

Kindly let us know how to implement the following things <br />
1)add different css to different output types(html, doc, pdf.....)<br />
2)use different master pages to different output types(html, doc, pdf.....)

Hi Vineet,
Do one thing, Go to ur master page in genral properties, there is an option Type in 3rd section. It has legal,letter custom as options. Choose custom n set the height and width for ur table(more than previous one like from 8.5 to 19 in.). This would increase the width of ur table. If u wish same can be done with height. Now u can include more columns according to ur requirement and just adjust the widths.
Hope this satisfies ur quest.
Thanks & Regards,

This devShare post shows how to dynamically set a CSS style sheet for a report.
http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/devshare/designing-birt-reports/539-birt-dynamically-choose-css-file/
This line of script can be used to check for the output format:
reportContext.getOutputFormat()
Put those together, and you should be able to switch styles based on your output.
