How to dynamically adjust page size in a paginated report

Is there a way to dynamically adjust page size from 11x9 to let's say 17x11 or more in a paginated report based on columns in a matrix when report grows horizontally?

 

Current solution is to use Print preview and not the Export option to accomodate horizontal growth when exporting PDF.

I don't think there is option for that in paginated report. 

you can try a workaround using the following steps:

Page Layouts:

Create multiple page layouts, each with a different page size.
Adjust the visualizations and elements on each layout to fit the respective page size.


Buttons or Bookmarks:

Create buttons or bookmarks to switch between these layouts dynamically.
You can use the "Bookmark" feature to capture the state of the report, including page size and other settings.

Do we know if there was an idea created for this type of functionality?

Not sure about that. but given the functionality of Paginated reports it might not have the significance for the developers to inbuilt this option in tool.
