I am trying to render a report from Reporting Services to a PDF Format. The report is quite wide and streches to 11 inches on the layout.

Whenever I try to render to PDF, it decreases the fonts to 25% and make it very small and unreadable. Even the printing is with very small unreadable fonts.

How would I default the PDF to a bigger font for viewing and printing?

Thanks

The font used is based on the setting you used in RS. There is no way it just automatically shrunk the font for you. Set the font to 8pt in all your tables / text field properties and do the export. See what happens in the ACTUAL EXPORT PDF FILE not the preview version in RS.

BTW make sure you are using the latest service pack of RS.
