SSRS Image not Rendering Properly when Export to PDF
I have an SSRS report that displays an image that is sourced externally via a file path. On preview, the report and image looks fine. But when I "export to PDF", the image on the report is not rendered properly... it looks all blurred with black dots and lines.
Why does the image look fine in SSRS, but it is garbage when exporting to PDF?
As a side note, when running the report on our SQL Server sharepoint site, the image doesn't appear at all.... completely missing.
Thanks experts!!

By the way. all our images have to be JPG format.

Thanks, I will try to convert to 96 DPI and see if that helps.

Can you please check the type of the image?
Also, try to size the image to the proper number of inches based on 96 DPI calculations. Then use Bitmap.SetResolution to set the images to at least 300 DPI. That may provide a higher quality image that is the proper number of pixels to fit properly in the report
