[Deski (XI)] R16 - Wrong page format

Hi,

I’ve got a wrong page format without making any change on the report.

So I’ve made a report and got it to save automatically as PDF when it gets refresh, made every table to get to one page.
it worked out very well.

Without any change the BO started to export at another size, so that the tables got cutted and the layout is all messed up.

Then I go to the PDF page properties and found the page sizes:

The correct one Is 20,67 x 14,61 in (no standard paper size)
And the incorrect one is 16,53 x 11,68 in (A3 paper size)

Correct:

694×184 12.8 KB

Incorrect:

The Business Objects only got to A3 paper size on page format, and to be honest I don’t know how it got good the first time.

Can you help me out on this one?

Thank you

So to keep an update.

I’ve been playing with the print settings, and when I changed the printer from “Microsoft Print to PDF” to “Citrix_PDF” but keeping the same “A3” paper format size the layout now gets to fit only one page.

So maybe I need to change my macro to always select that printer when ExportAsPDF?

Is this possible on the macro?
