I have a very complex report. I found out, that several rendered report instances of the same report (as PDF) showed an empty last page (only the header and footer was visible). Problem is, there should be data on the last page which is not shown (i.e. the page is empty - although the data is available).

I was able to make the data visible again, in adding some random element to the end of the data table OR in increasing the rowheight, so that the table needed another page. In both cases the data was visible again.

General Setup:

<Group1,2,3>
[Data]
<FooterOfGroup2>
[Legend]
</FooterOfGroup2>
</Group3,2,1>

In all cases where data was missing, the title of the Legend was shown. Different amounts of Legend-entries were shown also, depending on the space still available below the data. The rest of the Legend-entries is, what is missing.

Example of Expected Output:

<Page1>
-----------------
|Date|Name|Value|
-----------------
|2010|A   |    1|
-----------------

Legend:
-----------------
</Page1>

<Page2>
A = "SomeName" 1 = "SomeValue"; 2 = "SomeOtherValue";

-----------------
Abbr = "SomeFixedAbbreviation"
</Page2>

Another thing I could just verify: Rendering the same report in Excel shows everything as expected.

Do you have any ideas were this behavior might come from?
