I have a Power BI paginated report built in Report Builder and connected directly to a Power BI Dataset. The report renders, but the main table splits awkwardly across pages whenever multi-line text entries appear. I need a seasoned paginated-report specialist to dig into the layout, pinpoint why the table won’t stay intact, and apply proven techniques so pagination behaves consistently in the viewer and when exporting to PDF or Excel. Here’s what you’ll tackle • Analyse the current .rdl, identify the exact layout or dataset behaviour that makes the text rows push the table to a new page. • Optimise any relevant DAX queries or Report Builder properties so multi-line cells no longer force a break. • Deliver an updated report that keeps groups and totals together, respects page margins, and exports cleanly. • Summarise best-practice settings I should keep in mind for future paginated projects. Acceptance criteria 1. The table remains unbroken for all known datasets containing multi-line text. 2. PDF and Excel exports mirror the on-screen pagination with no extra blank pages. 3. A short note explains the changes and any Report Builder settings I should avoid altering. You can work in your own environment or request temporary access; I’ll supply the existing .rdl and a sample dataset. If this sounds straightforward to you, let’s get it fixed.

Hi, I can help fix this Power BI Paginated Report issue and make the table paginate correctly for multi-line text entries in both the viewer and PDF/Excel exports. I understand the requirement clearly: you need the existing .rdl analyzed, the exact cause of the awkward page breaks identified, and the report updated so multi-line cells no longer push rows or groups incorrectly across pages. I can also provide a short hand-off note with the key settings and best practices for future reports. My approach: * Review the .rdl layout, tablix/group settings, row height, padding, KeepTogether, CanGrow, and page break behavior * Check page size, margins, body width, hidden containers, and export-specific layout issues * Validate whether any DAX or dataset structure is contributing to row expansion * Apply the fix directly in the report and test in viewer, PDF, and Excel * Share a brief explanation of root cause and the settings to preserve Deliverables: * Updated .rdl file * Corrected pagination for multi-line text rows * Clean PDF and Excel export behavior * Short best-practice hand-off note I have experience with Power BI reporting, report layout troubleshooting, and building stable, export-ready outputs. I focus on practical fixes, clarity, and maintainable solutions. Once you share the .rdl and sample dataset, I can review it and help get the pagination working cleanly. Best regards, Viraj
