Configuring Report Output

To configure report output, click Reports, and then select Configure Reports.

These selections are available on the Configure Reports page:

• PDF Report Options

  For reports generated in portable document format (PDF), you can make selections to determine the fonts to be used in the report, the page size, and page orientation.

  • PDF Font Name. Select the font to use when generating PDF reports. By default, only fonts available to all PDF viewers are shown. However, additional fonts (such as those needed to support Asian languages) can be added to the system by copying font definition files into the product’s fonts/ directory and restarting the server.

    Accepted font definition formats include .ttf, .ttc, .otf, and .afm. If you select one of these fonts, then it must be available at the computer system where the report is viewed. Alternatively select the Embed Font in PDF Documents option.

  • Embed Font in PDF Documents. Select this option to embed the font definition in the generated PDF report. This ensures that the report is viewable in any PDF viewer.

    Note –

    Embedding the font can greatly increase the size of the document.

    ---

  • Page Size. Choose the PDF page size by selecting letter (8 ½ by 11 inches) or legal (8 ½ by 14 inches) from the menu. (Default value is letter.)

    ---

    Note –

    You can add other sizes to this menu by using the pdfPageSize field on the Reports Config Library form. The pdfPageSize value must be a value known to the com.lowagie.text.Rectangle class in the itext package.

    ---

  • Orientation. Choose the PDF page orientation by selecting portrait or landscape from the menu. (Default value is portrait.)

• CSV Report Options. Select the Character Set Name option to specify a character set to use when generating CSV reports. Not all applications that import CSV files support the default UTF-8 encoding. Select another character set as needed.

• Tracked Event Configuration. Select the Enable event collection option to configure reports for system monitoring and does not apply to customizing report formatting. For more information, see Tracked Event Configuration.
