I'm making a Crystal Reports template. The template has some text in the header and then it has an image. If the text has a few lines, the image is normal and allowed in the first page, but if the text has many lines the image will be cut off in the first page and second page. Could it have ways to prevent the image from being cut off to the second page, such as auto-rescaling the image size?
I tried can grow and other settings in Crystal Reports 10, but it didn't work.
Report Design Picture
Make sure Keep Object Together in the properties of the image is checked. This will prevent CR to split your image across pages.
Best option in this case would be Create another section and place the image in that section instead of text and image in same section, This will force the image to go to another page if it doens't fit in first page.
For E.g, if data in report header, create one more section Report Header a and place text in that section and Report Header b and place image in this section

I have designed a report using JasperSoft and filling it with it JasperReports.
The structure is simple, a header band, a detail band and a footer band.
The problem is in the detail band.
Inside the detail band, there is a table, populated with data from my Java App and when the table ends, I have to insert a frame section that I call "Comments".
Ok, the problem is the next:
Inside the comments frame, i have 2 frames and between them, I want a blank area to separate them. Depending on the table size, I want that blank space to fit the page, if there's more available space in the page, then the blank gap has to grow to fit.
Also, I need a fixed size for that frames.
When there's no space, I need a page break and maximize the gap size in order to fit the entire page.
I append a image to show the schema.
Thanks in advance.

I want to print data with two columns in crystal report. For example:
enter image description here
But the problem is, I cannot create columns in crystal report. I followed the instructions like Right Click in Section Details then tick the Format Multiple Columns checkbox then adjust the Gap and detail size in Layout Tab. However, only 1 column has been created.
enter image description here
I am using the Crystal Report built in in Visual Basic.Net 2008. Thank you very much.
Probably due to page margins, page size, detail width and gap, the content can't fit as 2 columns.
Use File, Page Setup to adjust those aspects.
Another suspect is that you never actually previewed the report.
The multi-column layout is rendered during Preview.
So you must actually run the report.
We have a multi-page Terms and Conditions which needs to print out at then end of our Quotes. I created a single row text box and pasted it in. I tried it in Page Footer a and well as Page Footer b. I formatted the text box: Can Grow with all the other boxes unchecked. I can scroll down through it to see it is all there in the text box, but when I View Preview it doesn't expand beyond one page. How can I make it grow into multiple pages?
It worked when placed in the Report Footer b section.
I am creating a Jasper report using iReport 5.1.0 output to pdf.
I have made report based on group by clause.
The group starts from 1st page itself but I want that to start from 2nd page so that i can show, page header, footer and title(without any content but an empty frame). How to do that?
I used a column break but that skips detail band also so not working.
Also, please tell if and how to set background for report.
Regarding the breaks,
You need to use the Page Break instead of Column Break just before the Group header, so that every single group starts from the new page. And even the first page can be blank as per your requirement.
Or what can be a better option is ,
You can click on the Group header node in the Report Inspector and there you can see a property called Start on a new Pag**e so if you **check this property you can see that all your groups automatically start on a new page.
For setting the background of the report you can see the node called Background in the report inspector.
You can just navigate to that node give the height of the Background band and there you can add the image element from the palette and assign *the* image to be displayed in the background to the image element.
Hope that this helps
Thanks
hello
i want to create watermark background in crystal report.
one way is:
1- On the Report menu, click Section Expert.
The Section Expert dialog box appears.
2- In the Sections list, click Page Header, then select the Underlay Following Sections check box.
3- Click OK to preview the report again.
but in this solution lines and boxes in report design page appear back of background image.
what is better solution?
the solution to this problem is make a subreport, the main report will only have the watermark on page header A, and the subreport on page header B
Your method is the best way to do it, as far as I know.
On your background don't forget to right-click->move->to back. That should put the background image in the back and all other report elements in the front.
