David, did you ever get a solution for this? I have been searching for one
for a little while and just came upon your post.

Yes! I hope this helps you. There were two approaches I took, the latter
being better.

First, I simply deleted the <DIV style="page-break-after:always"><hr/></DIV>
from the content. While this did remove the visible rule, it still left ugly
blocks of blank space. If you had a table or matrix that spanned more than
one page, it broke it up -- not acceptable.

Here is what you need to do. In your RDL, you need to define your page
length to be the max length allowed (4064mm). Then set all your page break
properties on the various objects as you would want them to break. This will
essentially disable all the page breaks when viewed as HTML because the page
is so long, but keep the desireable breaking points. Then, for PDF output,
set the DeviceInfo element of <PageHeight> to be the actual size for
PDF/printed output (11in).

Works like a charm! Good Luck, David

This technique works GREAT... unless you have reports for different paper
orientations (layout + landscape)... is there an easy way for my ASP ap to
check a report's default page width before trying to reset to a new size for
PDF?
