Ssrs Image Rendering Pdf
PDF watermark/background Rendering Extension for SSRS – Part 1. But as we soon found out, the actual DPI (or PPI since it’s a bitmap) of the image is neglected. Image rendering in SSRS is hard-coded at 72 96DPI. Not only that, it will assume the original image is 96DPI, so a 300DPI image will end up being rendered appr. 3.1 times larger. 1) The PDF renderer in Reporting Services 2005 will size all images that it is given at 96 DPI no matter what DPI the image is when you pass it to the renderer. SSRS export to PDF in landscape format. I'm facing an issue when my ssrs report is exported to pdf from sharepoint. The text box data is aligned to Right. Because of that the last letter is getting truncated. Could any please suggest to fix the issue. Thanks May 21, 2015 at 3:53 PM.

The Image rendering extension renders a paginated report to a bitmap or metafile. By default, the Image rendering extension produces a TIFF file of the report, which can be viewed in multiple pages. When the client receives the image, it can be displayed in an image viewer and printed. This topic provides Image renderer-specific information and describes exceptions to the rendering rules.
The Image rendering extension can generate files in any of the formats supported by GDI+: BMP, EMF, EMFPlus, GIF, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF. For TIFF format, the file name of the primary stream is ReportName.tif. For all other formats, which render as a single page per file, the file name is ReportName_Page.ext where. ext is the file extension for the chosen format. To produce a file in another Image-supported format, specify any of the above listed strings in the OutputFormatDeviceInfo setting.
Note
You can create and modify paginated report definition (.rdl) files in Report Builder and in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools. Each authoring environment provides different ways to create, open, and save reports and related items.
Supported Image Formats
The following table shows the file extension and MimeType for each Image renderer format.
| Type | Extension | MIMEType |
|---|---|---|
| BMP | bmp | image/bmp |
| GIF | gif | image/gif |
| JPEG | jpeg | image/jpeg |
| PNG | png | image/png |
| TIFF | tif | image/tiff |
| EMF | emf | image/emf |
| EMFPlus | emf | image/emf |
Rendering Multiple Pages
TIFF is the only format that supports multiple page documents in a single file. Other formats, such as JPG or PNG, output one page at a time and require a separate call to the rendering extension for each page.
Interactivity
Interactivity is not supported in any Image formats generated by this renderer. The following interactive elements are not rendered:
Hyperlinks
Show or Hide
Document Map
Drillthrough or clickthrough links
End user sort
Fixed headers
Bookmarks
Device Information Settings
You can change some default settings for this renderer by changing the device information settings. For more information, see Image Device Information Settings.

You can export a Reporting Services report to another file format, such as PowerPoint, Image, PDF, Microsoft Word, or Microsoft Excel or export the report by generating an Atom service document, listing the Atom-compliant data feeds available from the report. You can export your report from Report Builder, Report Designer ( SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT)), or the report server.
Export a report to do the following:
Work with the report data in another application. For example, you can export your report to Excel and then continue to work with the data in Excel.
Print the report in a different format. For example, you can export the report to the PDF file format and then print it.
Such books are obviously mostly written for engineering and non-mathematics students, assuming that mathematics and serious physics majors would opt into courses and texts based in differentiable manifolds. Calculus textbook pdf. I stumbled across this terrific and very underrated book while searching for a modern treatment of functions of several variables that could be used by bright undergraduates without the use of manifolds or differential forms.The overwhelming majority of such books are basically plug and chug books that may as well have been written in the 19th century and avoid any hard theory like Lyme Disease. Most of them are afraid to discuss linear transformations and vector spaces, for God’s sake.
Save a copy of the report as another file type. For example, you can export a report to Word and save it, creating a copy of the report.
Use report data as data feeds in applications. For example, you can generate Atom-compliant data feeds that Power Pivot, or Power BI, can consume, and then work with the data in Power Pivot, or Power BI. For more information, see Generate Data Feeds from a Report
Rendering the report on the report server is useful when you set up subscriptions or deliver your reports via e-mail, or if you want to save a report that is available on the report server. For more information, see Subscriptions and Delivery (Reporting Services).
Reporting Services provides many rendering extensions, supporting exports of reports to common file formats. The rendering extensions support file formats with soft breaks (for example, Word or Excel), hard-page breaks (for example, PDF or TIFF), or data only (for example, CSV or Atom compliant XML).
Report pagination might be affected when you export a report to a different format. When you preview a report, you are viewing the report as it is rendered by the HTML rendering extension, which follows soft-page break rules. When you export a report to a different file format, such as Adobe Acrobat (PDF), pagination is based on the physical page size, which follows hard-page break rules. Pages can also be separated by logical page breaks that you add to a report, but the actual length of a page varies based on the renderer type that you use. To change the pagination of your report, you must understand the pagination behavior of the rendering extension you choose. You might need to adjust the design of your report layout for this rendering extension. For more information see, Page Layout and Rendering.

Rendering Extension Types
There are three types of Reporting Services rendering extensions:
Data renderer extensions Data rendering extensions strip all formatting and layout information from the report and display only the data. The resulting file can be used to import the raw report data into another file type, such as Excel, another database, an XML data message, or a custom application. Data renderers do not support page breaks.
The following data rendering extensions are supported: CSV, XML, and Atom.
Soft page-break renderer extensions Soft page-break rendering extensions maintain the report layout and formatting. The resulting file is optimized for screen-based viewing and delivery, such as on a Web page or in the ReportViewer controls.
The following soft page-break rendering extensions are supported: Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, and Web archive (MHTML).
Hard page-break rendering extensions Hard page-break renderer extensions maintain the report layout and formatting. The resulting file is optimized for a consistent printing experience, or to view the report online in a book format.
The following hard page-break rendering extensions are supported: TIFF and PDF.
Formats you can export while viewing reports
Reporting Services provides rendering extensions that render reports in different formats. You should optimize the report design for your chosen file format. The followin table lists the formats you can export from the user interface. There are additional formats you can use with Reporting Services subscriptions or if you are exporting from URL access. See the section Other Ways of Exporting Reportsin this topic.
| Format | Rendering Extension Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Acrobat (PDF) file | Hard page-break | The PDF rendering extension renders a report to files that can be opened in Adobe Acrobat and other third-party PDF viewers that support PDF 1.3. Although PDF 1.3 is compatible with Adobe Acrobat 4.0 and later, Reporting Services supports Adobe Acrobat 6 or later. The rendering extension does not require Adobe software to render the report. However, PDF viewers such as Adobe Acrobat are required for viewing or printing a report in PDF format. For more information, see Exporting to a PDF File. |
| Atom | Data | The Atom rendering extension generates Atom-compliant data feeds from reports. The data feeds are readable and exchangeable with applications such as Power Pivot, or Power BI, that can consume Atom-compliant data feeds. The output is an Atom service document that lists the data feeds available from a report. At least one data feed is created for each data region in a report. Depending on the type of data region and the data that the data region displays, multiple data feeds might be generated. For more information, see Generating Data Feeds from Reports. |
| CSV | Data | The Comma-Separated Value (CSV) rendering extension renders reports as a flattened representation of data from a report in a standardized, plain-text format that is easily readable and exchangeable with many applications. For more information, see Exporting to a CSV File. |
| EXCELOPENXML | Soft page-break | Displayed as 'Excel' in the export menus when reviewing reports. The Excel rendering extension renders a report as an Excel document (.xlsx) that is compatible with Microsoft Excel 2013. For more information, see Exporting to Microsoft Excel. |
| PowerPoint | Hard page-break | The PowerPoint rendering extension renders a report as an PowerPoint document (.pptx) that is compatible with PowerPoint 2013. |
| TIFF file | Hard page-break | The Image rendering extension renders a report to a bitmap or metafile. By default, the Image rendering extension produces a TIFF file of the report, which can be viewed in multiple pages. When the client receives the image, it can be displayed in an image viewer and printed. The Image rendering extension can generate files in any of the formats supported by GDI+: BMP, EMF, EMFPlus, GIF, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF. For more information, see Exporting to an Image File. |
| Web archive | Soft page-break | The HTML rendering extension renders a report in HTML format. The rendering extension can also produce fully formed HTML pages or fragments of HTML to embed in other HTML pages. All HTML is generated with UTF-8 encoding. The HTML rendering extension is the default rendering extension for reports that are previewed in Report Builder and viewed in a browser, including when run in the Reporting Services web portal. For more information, see Rendering to HTML. |
| WORDOPENXML | Soft page-break | Displayed as 'Word' in the export menu when viewing reports. The Word rendering extension renders a report as a Word document (.docx) that is compatible with Microsoft Word 2013. For more information, see Exporting to Microsoft Word. |
| XML | Data | The XML rendering extension returns a report in XML format. The schema for the report XML is specific to the report, and contains data only. Layout information is not rendered and pagination is not maintained by the XML rendering extension. The XML generated by this extension can be imported into a database, used as an XML data message, or sent to a custom application. For more information, see Exporting to XML. |
Generating Data Feeds From a Report
To generate data feeds from a report, run the report in the Reporting Services web portal, and then click the Generate Data Feed icon on the web portal toolbar. You are prompted to choose whether to save or open the file. If you chose Open, the Atom service document opens in the application that is associated with the .atomsvc file extension. If you chose Save, the document is saved as an .atomsvc file. By default, the name of the file is the name of the report. You can change the name to one that is more meaningful.
You save the Atom service document to your computer. Later you can upload it to a report server or another server to make it available for others to use. For more information, see Generating Data Feeds from Reports and Generate Data Feeds from a Report.
Troubleshooting Exported Reports
Sometimes your reports look different or do not work the way you want after you export them to a different format. This occurs because certain rules and limitations might apply to the renderer. You can address many limitations by considering them when you create the report. You might need to use a slightly different layout in your report, carefully align items within the report, confine report footers to a single line of text, and so forth.
If your report contains Unicode text with Arabic numbers, or contains dates in Arabic, the dates and numbers do not render correctly when you export the report to any of the following formats or print the report.
PDF
Word
Excel
Image/TIFF
If you export the report to HTML, the dates and numbers render correctly.
The topics about specific renderers describe how report items and data regions are rendered as well as the limitations and solutions for each renderer.
Reporting Services provides additional features to help you create reports that work well in other formats. Page breaks on tablix data regions (table, matrix, and list), groups, and rectangles give you better control of report pagination. Report pages, delimited by page breaks, can have different page names and reset page numbering. By using expressions, the page names and page numbers can be dynamically updated when the report is run. For more information, see Pagination in Reporting Services.
In addition, you can use the RenderFormat built-in global to conditionally apply different report layouts for different renderers. For more information, see Built-in Globals and Users References
Other Ways of Exporting Reports
Exporting a report is an on-demand task that you perform when the report is open in the Reporting Services web portal or Report Builder. If you want to automate an export operation (for example, to export a report to a shared folder as a specific file type on a recurring schedule), create a subscription that delivers the report to a shared folder. For more information, see File Share Delivery in Reporting Services.
Reports previewed in the reporting tools or opened in a browser application such as the Reporting Services web portal are always first rendered in HTML. You cannot specify a different rendering extension as the default for viewing. You can, however, create a subscription that produces a report in the rendering format you want for subsequent delivery to an e-mail inbox or shared folder. For more information, see Create and Manage Subscriptions for Native Mode Report Servers and Create, Modify, and Delete Data-Driven Subscriptions.
You can also access a report through a URL that specifies a rendering extension as a URL parameter and render the report directly to the specified format without rendering it in HTML first. The following example renders a report in Excel format:
and the following renders a PowerPoint report from a named instance:
