Page size pblm when converting HTML to PDF

[saibejugam]

hi all,
firslty,sorry for posting this as a sticky previously... it was unknowingly done

my pblm:
i am able to convert an html page to pdf using filter "writer_web_pdf_export"
but the page size of the pdf is shrinked to the contents i mean if an html page has a paragraph with 3 lines n when i converted it into a pdf then the size of the page is literally 7.18 X 2.19in as shown in acrobat reader

following is my code snippet:

XModel xmodel = (XModel)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(com.sun.star.frame.XModel.class, xcomponent);
XFrame xframe = xmodel.getCurrentController().getFrame();
xframe.activate();
XStorable xstorable = (XStorable)UnoRuntime.queryInterface (com.sun.star.frame.XStorable.class, xcomponent);

PropertyValue[] filterProps = new PropertyValue[2];
filterProps[0] = new PropertyValue();
filterProps[0].Name = "CompressMode";
filterProps[0].Value = "1";
filterProps[1] = new PropertyValue();
filterProps[1].Name = "PageRange";
filterProps[1].Value = "1";
PropertyValue apropertyvalue[] = new PropertyValue[2];
apropertyvalue[0] = new PropertyValue();
apropertyvalue[0].Name = "FilterName";
apropertyvalue[0].Value ="writer_web_pdf_Export;
apropertyvalue[1] = new PropertyValue();
apropertyvalue[1].Name = "FilterData";
apropertyvalue[1].Value = filterProps;

xstorable.storeToURL(lStrFilePath, apropertyvalue);// here lStrFilePath is the pdf file path

please somebody help me out in this..

If you are not specifying an import filter, then HTML is being opened into Web.

Instead, you should specify an import filter to import HTML into Writer. Writer treats its content as distinct pages.

Your export will then have distinct pages. Also, Writer can export to many more formats than Web. So if you are trying to convert HTML into almost anything else, then Writer (not Web) is a better intermediate format.

Open HTML with Writer not Web in order to export
