I'm using SSRS 2008. My report looks fine in the preview window but when I try to write it to PDF it gets all screwed up. How can I get the onscreen to look like the pdf.
I would assume that the preview window renders with the System.Drawing namespaces in .Net. HTML renders via your web browser, obviously. PDF renders via your PDF viewer. So basically, there are always going to be some differences. Part of the report development process is to test the report across a variety of different rendering formats. And I would consider the preview window to be the least important view to get it pixel perfect. Because who looks at it besides the developer?
Perhaps if you describe the exact formatting issue you are having then it will be easier to help.

And so on. Each entry in the title is a column. When it displays on the preview screen (SSRS 2008) everything looks fine. But when I go to create PDF, it only produces about half the columns and then goes to another page. I hardly every have a problem with a table going fom preview mode to pdf. So why does this one do that?
