Blank Pages in SSRS Reports PDF Render

Recently I faced an issue within SSRS where a Tabular Report in SSRS report got blank pages in-between the rows when rendered/downloaded as PDF.

I tried to read about it, but usually people think it’s about Keeping Header in the report or Portrait/Landscape orientation of the report. But its not!

Report must be having dynamically generated columns or variable length of the columns. When an SSRS report is rendered, it usually keep additional space from right end of body same as when Report was in design mode.

When columns are generated in report render extra space taken is converted into blank pages, but its nothing but extra space on right side report body.

1. Decrease the column length in Design Mode
2. Change report orientation to landscape (if not already), so it takes more horizontal length
3. Fix report column names (instead of dynamically generated) if possible
4. Create new report for more information and decrease overall horizontal length of report

Use any of the above options to get this fix. Unfortunately its not a permanent kind of fix but this is all we got!

Let me know if you come across this kind of situation.
