Answer 2

Hi Bellam,

From your description, you want to restrict you user export report to PDF format, right? If in this case, you can set the visible attribute of PDF render extension to false in rsreportserver.config file.

1. Open rsreportserver.config file. (located on C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer)
2. Go to PDF Extension.
3. Change it like:
   <Extension Name="PDF" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ImageRenderer.PDFRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ImageRendering" Visible="false">

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Regards,
