• SQL Server Local report pdf export

  I have found several questions and remarks about the pdf export in local mode. The big problem is that the export to pdf option in local mode is useless when compression is not supported. My questions: 1.) When (VS 2005 date ) will pdf compression in local mode be supported 2.) Is it possible to compress the result of the LocalReport.Render method with custom code 3.) It seems like a small adjustment to use the server mode compression code also in local mode. Is it part of a MS strategy to force the use of server mode Thanx, Arjan I don't know of any plans to support PDF compression in local mode. ...Show All
