Hi
I wanted to know if there is any way I can convert a SRSS 2008 report to an image (jpg, tiff, any will do really)

In detail: given a set of .rdl files either on the hard disk of a local machine, or on an online reporting server, I'm supposed to write some code that takes those files and export them as images. The reports are all charts so I need to get images showing those charts.

I myself have no clue where to begin besides the observations that when I view the reports in a report viewer control, they are displayed as .png files and that the report viewer control has a drop down menu that has 'export as tiff' as an option. The problem with the tiff thing was that it would export the entire printable area as a report where as I simply want the the chart area, and to be able to do this programatically

Any help would be very much appreciated
