je fais un rapport word que je veux formater en A3 paysage

currentLayout = d.CurrentPageLayout;

currentLayout.PageSize.Height = '11.69in';

currentLayout.PageSize.Width ='16.54in' ;

currentLayout.PageSize.Orientation = 'landscape'; % landscape portrait

Mon problème:

le changement de taille de la page est pris mais pas l'orientation

Hi Daniel,

Please excuse me that I am not a French speaker. However, I hope this answer helps you.

1. You can change the orientation in mlreportgen.dom.PageSize class.
2. Yes you can use "cm" instead of "in".

Please take a look at the sample script below. This sample sript is mainly taken from this official documentation.

import mlreportgen.report.*;
import mlreportgen.dom.*;

rpt = Report("myreport1","docx");
open(rpt);

layoutObj = rpt.Layout;
layoutObj.PageSize = PageSize("29.6926cm","42.0116cm", "Landscape");

tp = TitlePage("Title","Title Page");
tplayoutObj = tp.Layout;
tplayoutObj.PageSize = PageSize("29.6926cm","42.0116cm", "Landscape");
append(rpt,tp);

toc = TableOfContents;
append(rpt,toc);

ch = Chapter("My Chapter");
para = Paragraph("This chapter uses the report page size");

close(rpt);
rptview(rpt);

good morning

i tryed to use the command

layoutObj.PageSize = PageSize("29.6926cm","42.0116cm", "Landscape");

but it generates error "Creating a string using double quotes is not supported. Use the string function." (matlab R2016B)

then I tryed to use the command

currentLayout.PageSize = PageSize('29.6926cm','42.0116cm', 'Landscape');

and it seems to operate (but I don't know why, and why my previous version didn't)

Thank you for this solution !

It should be a version issue. I believe you need to use a recent version if you want to use double quote for the PageSize method. Even though the string type is introduced in R2016b it doesn't seem to be working for PageSize as expected.
