High Fidelity to the Report Design

Aspose.Words for Reporting Services exports reports as Microsoft Word documents in such a way that they appear identical to reports produced by Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services’ built-in renderers.

To better suit your reports, there are two modes of export to choose from: Flow Layout and Positioned Layout.

The Flow Layout produces most "editable" documents that consist of simple paragraphs, tables, section breaks etc as if an office worker created the document in Microsoft Word.

The Positioned Layout produces reports with the most accurate conversion of RDL to Microsoft Word documents. Tables and matrices from the report are exported as Microsoft Word tables, while some elements are exported as positioned textboxes.
