Does reporting services allow emdedding of PDF documents? I dont want to convert the document to JPEG as the size increases many times (for me the image size is around 1.6MB vs. 100KB for PDF) and i have several of these images. Would appreciate if anyone has done similar exercise to embed document within reports.
thanks !!Not sure what we would really embed it in? HTML isn't really a format that
supports embedding. You can embed docs in e-mail messages as well as link to
docs on a web page. I suppose we could have an MHTML format that embedded a
PDF file but this hasn't been high on the priority list.

page. Can you just link to the document on a web site from the report? You
could even store the PDF in the Report Server database and link to it.

Embedding Fonts While Exporting To PDF
Hi,
My report requires a special type of font. I have the font installed on the
report server. When I export the report as PDF and view the document on the
report server I am able to see the new font. But when I open the same
document on a machine which doesn't have the font installed, I don't get to
see the font. I understand that there is some way you can configure your pdfs
so that the fonts are embedded within the PDF so that all the clients need
not have the font installed to view the document. Is there any way we can
embed fonts in pdfs using reporting services?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
GeorgeYou can't embed fonts into PDF exports in this version of SRS. Maybe next
version which is due maybe middle of next year. Crystal Reports allows you
to embed fonts in version 9.

Embedded Word Document in RDL
I have a word document that I would to migrate to reporting services
2005. Instead of recreating the word document in reporting services, I
would like to know if I can embed the word document in a report? If
not, what other options are there?
Thanks.If you would like the word document to be hosted by RS then in your project
add a new existing item and then select your Word file. Then you can deploy
it. Note that when you update it and want to redeploy I have found that I
have to delete it from the report server first prior to deployment.

I have tried that and that does work. But I was trying to find the
best way to migrate the word document into an RDL file. I want it to
be an RDL file because I have some other data that I want to
incorporate into the report from a database. I am not sure this can
be done, but I would like to avoid from having to recreate the word
document in an RDL file.|||There might be a third party tool that allows this but not straight out of
the box.

embed office document
is it at all feasible to embed an office doument (specifically word) into an ssrs report so that the document will print out when renderered to pdf?
No, this is really not possible. You would need to translate the text into RDL to do this. We are looking at the ability to provide rich text formatting (including embedded HTML) in a future release.|||Please add this feature.

Email with attachments.
I have just setup a new Reporting Service Server. I loaded a page then I created a subscription which will email and excel document of the report out.
Each time the subscription runs I am getting this error below:
Failure sending mail: The report server has encountered a configuration error. See the report server log files for more information.Failure sending mail: The report server has encountered a configuration error. See the report server log files for more information.
When I take out the attachment on the email and just have it send the link the email runs fine with no errors. Is there some type of setup that needs to be done with the server side to have it send attachments?
Please let me know. Thanks
Ken, any luck with this problem?
I'm having the same issue - can email fine when only sending a link in the report subscription, but send fails when attempting to include an attachment. Just getting the following logon failure in the report server logs:

Yes. The 'Log On' account that your SQL Server Reporting Services service runs under must have permissions to send email via your smtp server.
1. Open Admin Tools > Services on your report server and find the SQL Server Reporting Services service.
2. Double click the service and go to the Log On properties tab to determine the service account.
3. Set permissions on your smtp server to allow the service account to send email.
