Reporting Services: How To Fit PDF Export On One Page?

I've built a report in Reporting Services and when we browse to the report in Internet Explorer we want to be able to export the report in PDF format. It works, but it was cutting off the columns to the right and displaying them on the next page (in PDF) because the page was too wide. I changed the orientation to landscape and it still cut off the columns on the right. Then I changed the page size to legal paper and it fits on one page, but we want the report on letter size paper. Is there a way to compress the report to fit on letter size landscape?

Here is how to get a report to fit on a letter page:

  1. Click on the blank space outside of your report
  2. Look at the properties and find interactive size. Set it to 11,8.5in. Set your Margins to 0.5in, 0.5in, 0.5in, 0.5in
  3. Click on the body and select properties. Set the width to 10in and something less than 7.5 for the height.
