Hi,
There is a small bug in RenderTask.java that seems to have been there for a long time.
The bug prevents emitters using page-break-pagination from paginating correctly (at all).
This doesn\''t affect the RunAndRenderTask usually used in the designer.
The workaround is to copy the RenderTask to a new package, modify it to fix the problem, and then use that RenderTask instead of calling createRenderTask. The eclipse OSGi environment makes it difficult to do this because of access rules, but the BIRT ReportEngine environment doesn\''t have those rules. It is possible to produce a private RenderTask for use in OSGi but you have to hobble it slightly so I don\''t think it would work for the PDF emitter (which doesn\''t need it) afterwards - I can\''t think of any tie (apart from unit testing my emitters) when this would be necessary, so I don\''t think it\''s a major problem.
More details of issue and workaround can be found here.
Hope this helps someone.
Jim
