Hi,

I am trying to view the report on report viewer on browser. During the design time, preview time, what ever the structure i placed , its displaying exactly and even when i convert to pdf, i saw the same format as design and previous time.  But when i view in report viewer the structure is complete different and format has changed. But when i convert from to pdf, its the same what ever i used in design or preview time.

Can you tell when it is happening.

Thanks.

Regards
Syed Arshad

Hi Syed,

Thank you for your question.

When you preview/export a report in different formats, the Telerik Reporting engine uses the appropriate rendering extension(s). Each rendering extension has different limitations or advantages, based on the used media, etc, which the developers must keep in mind when designing a report.

You may find this design considerations for all rendering extensions in the help article Design Considerations for Report Rendering.

The web report viewer, for example, needs a report rendered with the HTML Rendering extension. The most important limitation here is that overlapped items cannot be rendered in HTML; also, because HTML is not a page oriented format, the page breaks may differ from the image/pdf/print rendering.
 

Best wishes,
