## Chapter 17 Designing a Multipage Report

Most reports display and print on multiple pages. When you design a report, consider how a multipage report displays and prints. You can, for example, design a report so that page breaks occur at logical places. For a report that contains a series of subreports, you can specify page breaks to start each subreport on a new page.

You can also design a page layout that enhances the report's appearance and usability. A page layout specifies the style of the pages on which report data appears. You can specify, for example, that all pages display the report title in the top-left corner, the company logo in the top-right corner, a page number in the bottom-right corner, and a report-generation date in the bottom-left corner. You can also design special effects, such as a watermark that appears in the background. To design a page layout, you customize the report's master page.
