    Split your PDF into individual images and then use these for the report pages separately.

    Hi lipster26,

     

    Yes, the Super User’s suggestion is correct, splitting the PDF into separate images is the right method.

    Also, make sure to:

    Size each image to match the report’s page dimensions (such as 8.5x11 inches) to avoid misalignment.

    Set the image position mode to Fit in Page Properties - Fill - Background Image for proper scaling.

    Keep margins consistent, ideally at 0.25" or less, for full-page coverage.

    Lock the layout after aligning so textbox positions stay fixed during edits.

    Test exporting to PDF after setting up each page to check field alignment and print accuracy.

     

    Thank you.
