Hi Knime Community,

I am having a problem where I have a blank page after each iteration of a group loop of data in Knime pdf report. Any ideas how to remove these?

Hello @John_Hayes ,  
Can you please share the workflow? If the data is confidential, could you share it with some dummy data?

Thanks,  
Sanket

Hi,

I have managed to get to a solution to this problem.  
If I wrap a table in a component and then view the layout of the report by opening up the layout editor, go to composite view and right click on the “little wheel” configuration settings of the table.

The Knime default for all tables is “Aspect ratio”. I just simply clicked on the alternative “Auto” which had the effect of shrinking the compressing the view of the data and getting rid of any blank spaces.

thanks,  
John
