I have a report set up with a Title band and a Detail band containing a table. There is no spacing between these two bands. When I view/print the report, the Detail band begins printing at the top of page 2, and page 1 is left with a large blank space between the header and the footer.
How can I get the Detail band to print directly beneath the title on page 1?
Edit: Code below.

Most likely the detail band is so large that the report starts it on the second page to display as much of it as possible.
printWhenDetailOverflows should be the relevant parameter.
If your report is small enough (or the result is what you desired) you can set ignorePagination on the top element to true and get everything in one page.
Also, you have a pageHeight of 842, minus 40 margin makes 802 per page.
Your detail band is 753, the title is 79, so they don't fit together on one page.

Looking for the best way to solve my dilemma. I am building a report and the data source that is being used is JSON <- Not much experience with JSON.
This is how data looks coming across to me via JSON
Parent
Child
Child (NEED SOME FIELDS HERE FOR HEADER)
FINAL CHILD (Need Fields In Here) (Setup as array bc multiple of Final Child)
FINAL CHILD
FINAL CHILD and so on (FINAL CHILD will be repeating in the Detail section.)
ALSO FINAL CHILD IS SETUP IN ARRAY FOR EACH FINAL CHILD
Currently, I have built a master and subreport. I do not need to pass any data because of the parent only has children... but could not get it working where the detail section of the master report would cycle through all the Final Children.
Master Report PreView:
SubReport PreView:
No matter what I do to the sizing, I cannot get it to shrink down in size and compactness...

I am open to all suggestions... again, very little experience with JSON and Jasper... especially around subreports... I was hoping I would not even need a subreport.
In Subreport, delete all bands except column header and detail .
from properties, make all the margins to zero.
In main report, make column header height = field height
and delete all other bands.
This is all basic alignment.
I want to pass my parameter value from main report to the sub report.
I have tried many ways. Also I have tried options from this link as well

I am able to print "HI TITLE" Using the parameter in my main report's title band.
I want to pass this value to the sub-report using the parameter and print it on the title band of the sub-report.
I want to pass this value using a parameter only, because I want to know how the parameters works so I could use it for my project to pass the values to sub-report through parameters.
You are passing the parameter correctly, this is not your issue.
Using your example files you have these issues.
If the datasource is empty you need attribute whenNoDataType="AllSectionsNoDetail" on jasperReport tag to display something (both in main and subreport).
The subreport can not be in the detail band (since your datasource is empty), move it into another band example title band.
You can not reference a jrxml in subreportExpression, you need to reference a .jasper file (the jrxml when it has been complied). Note: the path need's to be the absolute path to the file (you normally use a parameter for this so that you can pass it in runtime)
see this for more information on path to subreport Subreport not rendering in main report
For testing I suggest you to put another static text element in the subreport, so that you understand if the subreport is displayed or not.
I have created a report template, with a style:
<style name="style1" pdfEncoding="Cp1250"/>
The full xml:

The generated pdf somehow does not include the character encoding. What property/iDesigner option or setting should be set? Or encoding should be set separately in every field/text property?
Adding a style to a template can solve this problem.
On the style check the Pdf Embedded checkbox and select the required Pdf Encoding from the selection list.
I am trying to create a sub report(report1_subreport3.jrxml) from the main report(report1.jrxml) using iReport designer (both with empty data source) . The main report detail band contains a static text ("Main Report") and the subreport element and the subreport contains a static text in its corresponding detail band("Sub Report")
But clicking the preview tab of the main report shows only static text "Main Report" not displaying the static text of subreport ("Sub Report") .
I also went through the link http://community.jaspersoft.com/questions/524978/empty-subreport-xml-datasource-ireport but still facing the issue .

PLease help me if I am missing something...
Place your sub-report field in the any other band other than detail band and add whenNoDataType="AllSectionsNoDetail" to your xml file. Add it among the other report properties in <JasperReport> tag. You can also add using the GUI Designer. Open your sub report and in the properties editor, at the end of the options you will find When No Data option. Select All Sections with No Detail from the list of available options.

This worked like a charm. Hope this helps.
Above issue got resolved using below tag which I had included in my mainreport. We need to use empty data source (new net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JREmptyDataSource())
SUBREPORT.jrxml

The same can be achieved using Jaspersoft Studio.
Anyone having a problem with jasper reports studio 6.3.0 not displaying subreports should try changing the name of the parameter in the subreport and then update the parameter connection in the master reports subreport widget "edit parameter" option to match the new parameter name. Also might avoid underscore ie. "USER_ID".
In my case problem was caused by JasperReportStudio NOT building .jasper file after saving subreport. This caused the the main report to always include very first version of subreport I have created (which had some error, so was not displaying anything).
Solution is to press Ctrl-B after pressing Ctrl-S each time you save. This rebuilds subreport .jasper file and caused it to refresh properly in preview of main report.
Hi every one I am using iReports for generating one of the reports and stuck at one place.
The situation is like this:
I am using one sub report in my main report and i want to return a variable (float) back to the main report from sub report after the query has been executed. And i'm just getting null values back to main report i have wasted 2 days googling and searching but problem is still there..
bellow is my dummy code of my JRXMLS (perfectly same) and snaps...

Thanks in advance..
Although the question is already answered, I would like to highlight the importance of having calculation="System" on the variable in the Main Report (the report calling the SubReport).
I wasted a lot of time before figuring this out...
In the dummy-code for Main Report JRXML above, the variable "A" correctly has calculation="System". NB: The answer by #GenericJon covers the variable in the SubReport.
In the subreport variable, you have calculation=System. This should be used when you are calculating the variable yourself using a scriptlet. You do not have an appropriate scriptlet attached to the report, so the variable is never being calculated.
You probably want to change the variable definition so that it is calculated at the start of the subreport, something like this:
<variable name="A" class="java.lang.Integer" resetType="Report" calculation="Nothing">
<variableExpression><![CDATA[$F{sum}]]></variableExpression>
</variable>
resetType="Report" will never reset the variable while the report is running.
calculation="Nothing" will evaluate the variableExpression for every row in the dataset.
These attributes could be omitted though, as they are the default values used. You should then find that the variable is initialised correctly.
From the JasperReports Ultimate Guide:
The value coming from the subreport is available only when the whole band containing the subreport is printed. If you need to print this value using a textfield placed in the same band as your subreport, set the evaluation time of the textfield to Band
i am agree with #bubba_hego99, the calculation type as below:
system no caculation, just set as system, or valued as other operator.
nothing no calulation, just set the variable.
sum execute sum($Feild("A")).
....
The detail you want to know other caculation, you should be to see the ireport document.
Note, in earlier versions of JasperReports:
When using a subreport returnValue, the variable returned must not be in the same band as the subreport itself.
The affectation is done I think at the end of the rendering of the band.
So add another band and use your variable inside.
