Using dynamic name for report PDF output file

Ananda BasakJan 11 2019 — edited Jan 11 2019

I am using APEX 5.0 ORDS. I need to print a report page as PDF output file. And I have to set the filename which will contain a page item value. Therefore in the report print attribute, under Output section, in the 'File name' field, I have set the value as Report_&P77_NUMBER., where P77_NUMBER is my page item. But as a result of this, I am getting an output pdf file with the name Report_&P77_NUMBER..pdf

So the value is not replacing the page item name in the output file name. To verify whether the page item P77_NUMBER itself has the right value, I have displayed it on the page and it is showing proper value. But that value is not being used in the pdf file name.

I have been searching in internet for many days, but not able to get this right yet. Please suggest how to achieve this.
