Printing From SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 on Windows Server 2003 R2

When I print fr开发者_如何学Goom report manager in reporting services (2008) the quality of the output is terrible with fonts that look great on screen being very blurry and badly sized.

Is there a known issue here?

Have been looking into the printing issue where fonts get ruined when print a SSRS 2008 report using report manager.

The same reports printed fine using

• SSRS 2005 on an XP machine
• SSRS 2008 on a Windows 7 machine.

So it appears to be something specific to SSRS 2008 on Windows Server 2003.

Reading what other people have experienced there are a few ideas about how to fix it.

• Its an issue with the display resolution of the host machine.“This may explain why on the server if you restart SSRS from within a console that has a resolution ratio of 1.33 like 1024x768 (thereby matching the 320/240 default size by ratio) the issue is resolved.”
• It may be fixed in SQL Server 2008 Cumulative update (we have R2 though so presumably not relevant)
• People got it magically fixed when the security update applied (but then some people say it comes back again)
• It’s something to do with people logged into server via terminal services. When they get booted off its all fine again

Of the above the first one is the only one I have not eliminated so will try that.
