4. Default layout is portrait. Switch the Page Width & Page Height values for Landscape mode.
5. If you want more real estate to work with on the page I suggest decreasing the margins to 0.5cm
6. Click OK.
7. Now resize the design area to the limits you have set in the properties dialog box. I.e. Pull the right edge of the ‘page’ to the 20 (Fig 3) tick mark and the bottom edge to the 28 tick mark. Note – if you are including a Header/Footer, then you will need to cater for these by decreasing the bottom edge to about 25 (Fig 4). These settings are for Portrait mode, switch the height and width for Landscape.

2. Right click on the rectangle item and choose Properties.
3. Check the appropriate box on the General Tab for the Page Break settings (Fig 5)

This will create a page break in the report at the point you specify. If you do not want to see the rectangle in you report, set the border properties to None.
