I am using SSRS report. In the 2nd rectangle in my rdl, i have few controls like tablix and textboxes.
when i generate report and download the report to pdf, report looks good for few records, but for few records the data in entire 2nd page is moved up by almost 2 cms.
I am not able to figure out the reason for this.
Please let me know what might be the reason for this and how this can be resolved.

I have around 10 SSRS reports (i.e. 10 .rdl files) and those needs to be exported to one PDF. How can I do this? Do I need to write custom C#.Net code or SSDT 2017 provides any simple feature to export that?
Please note that, all the RDL files has different header and footer, The 1st page has image in it,few pages has both tabular as well as matrix report.
As suggested, I have one main report and I'm adding sub-report one after another (just maintain the sequence)
I searched on MSDN, however, it looks like Microsoft does not have such feature till now OR may be I'm missing something? Or any special setting or .Net code needs to be written?
Note: I have two version of SSDT (2016 and 2017)
You could just create a master report and then put your 10 reports in that as subreports.
If you reports take a parameters then all the parameters will have to be setup in the master report and then passed to the sub report.
Then, just run the master report and export to PDF...
I've returned to our reports collection after a couple of years away, and added a new report which has a simple tablix containing a few columns, but many rows from the dataset.
The problem is, the report (in Preview in VS, and when run on the Report Server) only shows some of the rows returned by the dataset, and doesn't enable the page navigation icons in order to scroll through the data to access the rest.
Where do I find the settings which control these things, please?
UPDATE:
Looking at some pre-existing reports, it seem that these exhibit the same problem - it would appear that SSRS can only display about 5,000 rows regardless of how many the dataset contains.
There is a 'hidden' setting in the XML code (not available via the UI AFAIK) called InteractiveHeight. Removing this line resulted in the paging starting to work
I'm creating a per-employee report that will be output to PDF and some pages of the report will only be applicable to specific employees. Ideally I would like to not show those pages when the report is run or when it is output to PDF.
Each page of the report would be pulling from different data, so I was looking into sub-reports as a potential option.
The other thing that might complicate this is that I need to be able to perform a batch output of the report for multiple employees to individual PDF files.
What is the best way to go about achieving this? Sub reports that I show or hide based on the available data? I've searched pretty extensively and haven't found any suggestions on how best to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance!
Reportfields have a CanShrink Option. If its empty and nothing else is on that line horizontally it shrinks to nothing. If you set all fields of a page to CanShrink it disappears in Reports where all the fields of that page are empty.
Is it possible to export a report which has a drill through. I have some reports which I need to export to PDF, including all drill throughs?
The main report drills through about 4-5 times and I need a PDF for each of those?

Can I export a PDF which gets all the information?
The only solution that I can think of for this is to create subscriptions that produce the report based on pre-specified parameters. For example if your report has 2 levels (Top, Bottom)
You would have two subscriptions and specify one to produce the pdf for top and one for bottom.
If We export an SSRS report to pdf, it gets exported as such. if you have a drill down, and you exported it to pdf, with drill-down part visible, then it will also be visible in export.
In drill down mechanism is not available in pdf.
Export to excel, if you want drill down facility in sub report.
In SSRS 2008 R2, I was under the impression that a drill down to a sub-report would query the data on-demand.
This isn't the case when my report gets rendered.
Specifically, I have a Tablix that initially loads rows grouped by Person.
When someone clicks the drilldown icon on that Person, a subreport displays some more data pertinent to that Person.
The problem here is that every subreport is being loaded initially when the main report is being rendered. This takes forever to load. But if I remove the subreport, just for testing purposes, the report loads almost instantly.
I've tried setting the visibility of the subreport to Hide initially, then Show when the user drills down, but it didn't change anything.
I read a similar question on stackoverflow, but the answer was to use Drill-Throughs instead.
This unfortunately isn't an option in my case.
Any suggestions?
The only way to defer the data loading is to actually use a new report with and access it via Drill-Through method. This is the way to product work, and is the way inteded by Microsoft.
You can either optimize your stored procedure, limit the number of results per page or use drill-through.
