PDF standard report attributes - change margins?

Skip_TMLJan 20 2011 — edited Apr 5 2013
We just installed the standard PDF reporting with Apache FOP and the apex_fop.jsp script. I am able to set a variety of Report Attributes and download the PDF reports (both interactive and standard report pages).

It appears that there is no setting for margin, and also if I change landscape letter to landscape legal, the report content is still sized for letter, with the extra 3 inches on the right blank.

Is there any way to adjust the margins? It looks like the default setting is 1" top, bottom, left, right and that eats up a lot of real estate on the page.

I would want to (a) find out how to set it per report, or (b) adjust the default.

I have no clue about how Apex invokes the PDF engine or where the settings are stored.

We're running in a hosted environment and I don't have ready access to the pieces outside of Apex and the Oracle DB.

Thanks for any pointers or solutions.
