Answer 1

• Add net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.remove.empty.space.between.columns and net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.remove.empty.space.between.rows properties to report template.

net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.remove.empty.space.between.columns - Specifies whether the empty spacer columns should be removed or not.

net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.remove.empty.space.between.rows - Specifies whether the empty spacer rows should be removed or not.

The sample:

The information about configuration properties is here.

• You can set isRemoveLineWhenBlank and isBlankWhenNull for textField element for hiding blank row.

The sample how to remove the whole line if the current textField is empty:

• Another assumption is to change the height of all textField (or/and staticText) elements in the Band.

In case this design:

you will have a space between any two rows.

In case this design (textField height is equal to the Band's height):

the each line will be exactly under the other.
