Set PDF "Page Style" property to "Actual size" in iHub

BIRT User

Hello BIRT Experts,

I want to set the PDF render property "Page Style"  to "Actual size"  in iHub. I don't want to configure it in PDF Emitter xml since it will reflect in all the reports.

 

I would like to know how to set this option from Java component while scheduling a job to iHub and directly in report(if there is an option).

 

I am using "JobScheduler" object in iHub to schedule the job however i don't find any direct methods to set the report options for a job.

 

Please help on this.

 

Note: I am using iHub 3.1

What is the "Java component" that you are referring to?

 

IDAPI?

IDAPI Wrapper (https://github.com/puckpuck/idapi-wrapper)?

 

 

If the IDAPI Wrapper, it doesn't currently support the ConversionOptions (https://github.com/puckpuck/idapi-wrapper/blob/master/idapi-wrapper/src/com/actuate/aces/idapi/JobScheduler.java) in scheduleJob:

if (outputFormat != null) {

ConversionOptions conversionOptions = new ConversionOptions();

conversionOptions.setFormat(outputFormat);

submitJob.setConversionOptions(conversionOptions);

}

You can rewrite the wrapper, extend scheduleJob in the wrapper, or use IDAPI directly.

Thanks.

When scheduling a job you can pass conversion options as report parameters. I don't know the exact report parameter name for "Page Style", but I know names of a few others:
