SSRS 2008 R2 Printing Poblem

  • I have a report in SSRS which utilises 2 tablixes - Both of these can grow (depending on the number of rows that are returned) and both are aligned below each other. When previewing in Visual Studio 2008 and online on SSRS the report looks perfect - both tablixes are lined up perfectly one below the other)

    When the same report is printed, the first tablix is intact but the second tablix moves up to overlap the first tablix (near the top of the tablix). The same problem occurs whether the report is printed or exported to a PDF. The report can potentially contains hundreds of pages and exporting it to a Excel (which works perfectly) is not viable.

    I am using 2 different datasets and hence using 2 tablixes. This same problem occurs with subreports - the subreport moves up to appear on top of the first tablix.

    Has anyone come across this behaviour before, or does anyone know of a fix?

    Thanks in advance.

  • That is really strange, and I'm sure it's not meant to work like that.

    There is a vertical gap between the two, and they both have the exact same value for the starting left position, right?

    Try putting the top tablix into a rectangle, and see if it makes any difference?

  • You might also try putting both Tablix regions within one Rectangle.

  • Fixed it. The second tablix was overlapping the first tablix ever so slightly. Moved it down a notch and redeployed the report, the problem with printing is gone now.
