How to set page setting values in the export process

To apply page setup changes to exported files in the Bold Reports® Report Viewer, enable the “Use Print Page Settings” option in the Export setup dialogue. By the RDL standard for page setup, changes in the Page setup dialogue affect only printing, not export, but Bold Reports® supports applying them to export.

To enable the “Use Print Page Settings” option in the Bold Reports® export setup, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Export Setup option in the Report Viewer toolbar to open the export setup dialog box. ExportSetup

  2. In the export setup dialog box, locate the “Use Print Page Settings” option and enable it. PrintPageSettings

After you enable the option, the Report Viewer applies your page setup changes to the exported output. The exported report then matches the printed version in page layout and formatting.
