• Designer changes the values for the Height and Width properties automatically when you change Orientation or Page Type; after you select a paper type and edit either Height or Width, Designer changes the paper type to "custom size" automatically.
• You can use constant level formulas to control some page properties for a page report tab, if you have bound a data resource to its report body.
