Change PaperSource during rendering

Hi all
Is ist possible to set the papers source for each rendered page in any event of the report.
We render multiple invoices in one report. The first page of any invoice must be printed on a different paper than the other pages (the page that contains the HeaderBand of the invoices).
Thank you
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
Report template can contain several pages and each of them can use its own paper size. Is it possible to design Header of the Invoice in that separate page (I mean File-> New Page command)?
Thank you.

Hi Edward
Unfortunately not, because the first page contains the header and detail data too. But I solved the problem this way:
- in the BeforePrint Event of the Page I set a flag if it is the first page of the invoice
- in the AfterPrint Event of the Page I set the paper source of the current rendered page like this
Code: Select all
string paperSource = "";
if (isFirstPage)
paperSource = Pages[0].PaperSourceOfFirstPage;
else
paperSource = Pages[0].PaperSourceOfOtherPages;
RenderedPages[RenderedPages.Count - 1].PaperSourceOfFirstPage = paperSource;
RenderedPages[RenderedPages.Count - 1].PaperSourceOfOtherPages = paperSource;
This solves my problem.
Thank you.
Andreas
