I am using Visual Studio 2010 to create a RDLC report, but I also need to produce this same report that will run in SSRS.
The page contains 2 lists, side-by-side. In most cases both lists will fit on one page, but if any of them overflow to the next page, then I want to print a header, showing "Continued..." and the page number (which is not the problem).
What is the best method to achieve this? Will a rectanle allow me to print the header on the next page or should I use a different method?
I found the answer, in case it can help someone else.
I added a Page Header and set the property PrintOnFirstPage to false. This allowed me to add the necessary "Continued ..." label to the page header, which will only print on the second page

In MS SSRS 2016, I need to Hide PAGE Header in HTML view and Display PAGE Header in Print and PDF renders. My current research says I can't, anyone out there have a hack/work around?
"When present, the header and footer is rendered at the top and bottom of every page within the usable page area." - Ref: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd255244.aspx
I can suppress the header on the first and the last page, but I can't render the report in HTML without Page header and in PDF/Print with Page Header without having two RDLs (not an optimal solution).
Suggestions?
You can't manually show/hide header on any page you want by design of SSRS.
The only thing you can do is to hide report items in header, but header will still take some place on page.
To vary visibility depending on what render format you use, you can use RenderFormat.Name and RenderFormat.IsInteractive globals (see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd255216.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396).
F.e. this will hide header report items in all formats except PDF (expression set for Hidden property of report items):
=(Globals!RenderFormat.Name <> "PDF")
I have a requirement for a user to have a either a static pdf or static image to be uploaded to the database. That needs to be appended to the end of an SSRS report. The report has a header and footer, which cannot be displayed on the last page and no body can be displayed either. The report must basically generate its report completely, then append a full page with just the static piece.
I have tried to expand the footer out to an additional full page height minus the margins, so 8.5 - .25(top margin) - .25(bottom margin). This produces really funky results. There is a first page with a header and a second page with the header/body/footer, but the pages are something like 14-15 inches tall instead of page breaking it actually reformats the page.
Is there a way to append an image(or PDF) that takes up a whole page to the end of an ssrs report without the header/footers?
You could try this:
create a new report
add a Rectangle region, size it to the whole page
set the Page Break > BreakLocation property of the rectangle to "End"
add a Subreport inside the Rectangle and set it to your original report
The new report should then generate the original report plus an extra page.
As the additional page is static you could simply create a new PDF and merge it at the end of the report when exporting to PDF.
Both PDFSharp and iTextSharp are possible libraries you could use to merge PDF files, there are plenty of tutorials and demos you could consult. Even here on StackOverflow for example: Combine two (or more) PDF's
I inherited a report in SSRS 2005
It is a very simple report with a Page Header, Page Footer, and only a table in the body
The table has one group (by Country) I have tried to set Page Break of the group before, after and both. No matter which option I choose the report on the screen, through the report viewer through the browser, always shows as one continuous page instead of the desired result of Each country starting a new page.
Any ideas of what else to check which would cause this behavior?
Thanks
Edit: In Pdf Export the page breaks work
Edit: to clarify I am referring to the report viewer through the browser, not HTML export
It works in export to PDF, but not elsewhere is because page based outputs obey page breaks.
HTML is not page based. HTML breaks on interactive page height.

I need a custom first page header in ssrs. I was trying to do it with custom visibility through expression. It works in reportviewer, but when exporting to word or pdf, visibility is not persisted and always shows first page header.
If you already have a normal page header that you want to appear on all subsequent pages except the first, then set the PrintOnFirstPage property of the Page Header to be False in the Properties window.
Add your custom first page header layout to the top of the report Body - ie. above everything else that appears in the report Body, but below the Page Header section (if enabled).
I have a ssrs report that when exported to word gives ~7 pages. When exported to pdf it suddenly gives ~18 pages, a lot of blank ones only including header and footer.
I have a few page breaks in the report so information belonging together starts on a new page as the customer wants it. This particular report should be used for word, so it looks fine. But there was complaints about it not working properly for pdf anyway.
The Body width is smaller than Page width, Left margin, Right margin which according to this link can be an issue: How to get rid of blank pages in PDF exported from SSRS
The total height however is 140cm.
Suggestions / Help is appreciated.
just try to set "ConsumeContainerWhiteSpace" property of Report to True, by default its False.
I had tried that in almost same issue as yours and it worked!!!!!!!!
The issue I had was the format became .005 cm wider than what the Standard A4 doc allowed me, 210x297mm.
