Insert blank page after each record in Crystal Report

Question

I have a Crystal Report that can show one or more (depending on the input) records. Each record can have one or more pages. I need to insert a blank page after every record (not just every record on a page, also a blank page after each record).

I've tried checking New Page Before / New Page After but all I managed to get was duplicate entries or a blank page at the end of the report (I need one after every record)

Answer 1

You can achieve it as:

• Split your Details section or your Group Footer, after which you want a blank page, into two sub-sections e.g. Details a, Details b or Group Footer a, Group Footer b.
• To insert a sub-section: open Section Expert, select Details or Group Footer and then click on Insert button.
• Enable / check New Page After option of both of theses sub-sections in Section Expert
• Ensure that Suppress Blank Section is unchecked
• If required, to disable insert blank page at the end of the report set suppression formula in New Page After as Not OnLastRecord

Update: To suppress header and footer information on blank page

• Create two Formula Fields, ShowHF and HideHF

• Set value of ShowHF as:

  WhilePrintingRecords;
  numberVar ShowInfo := 1;
  

• Set value of HideHF as:

  WhilePrintingRecords;
  numberVar ShowInfo := 0;
  

• Place ShowHF in Details a sub-section and HideHF in Details b sub-section and suppress both ShowHF and HideHF

• Set the suppression formula for Page Header and Page Footer as:

  numberVar ShowInfo = 0;
