    This is from the SSRS Cheat Sheet I keep around, though I don't use Report Builder often now.

     

    1. Check Page Size and Margins: Ensure that the page size and margins are properly for the report. Sometimes, the blank pages may be caused by a larger page size or margins, which pushes content onto additional pages.

    2. Check Page Breaks: Review all the tables, matrices, and other visual elements in your report to ensure there are no unnecessary page breaks inserted. Disable page breaks where needed.  

    3. Check for Hidden Objects: Make sure there are no hidden objects on your report that could contribute to the blank pages. 

    4. Remove Empty Rows and Columns: If you have tables or matrices in your report, check for empty rows or columns that might be causing extra space.

    5. Verify Data Source and Filtering: Verify the data source and the filters on your report. This may be if the data source is returning blank or empty rows, and can cause blank pages.

    6. Update Pagination Settings: Check the report's pagination settings.
