Is it possible to replace on a SSRS 2008 instance the PDF rendering extension with the counterpart in SSRS 2012 or somehow install them side by side?
I just notice that exporting a report to PDF in SSRS 2012 the strike-through decoration is correctly rendered whilst in SSRS 2008 is missing altogether.
I don't think it's a missing font issue because:
- I have the same report deployed to the 2 instances, SSRS 2008 & 2012, that run on the same machine.
- While viewing the reports in the report manager (HTML rendering) the strike-through effect is correctly rendered on both instances.
- Exporting to PDF will correctly rendered the strike-through text only in SSRS 2012
Of course we could upgrade the existing SSRS2008 instance but just wondering if it is possible to somehow work around this issue of the 2008 service.
Thanks in advance!
