You may want to add Aspose.Pdf rendering extension directly to the Visual Studio 2005 Report Designer (Business Intelligence Development Studio). This will enable you to export your reports to PDF documents right in design time, without the need to upload the reports to Report Server first.

To do so, please follow these steps (applies to SQL Server 2005):

1. Open the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies folder.

2. Copy Aspose.Pdf.ReportingServices.dll to that folder.

3. Locate two files in the folder: RSReportDesigner.config and RSPreviewPolicy.config and edit them exactly as you do when installing Aspose.Pdf for Reporting Services manually, that is edit RSReportDesigner.config as rsreportserver.config and RSPreviewPolicy.config as rssrvpolicy.config.

4. Reload Visual Studio.
