Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1) fixes in one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security updates that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 update release.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • You create a report of SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2 (SSRS 2008 R2) or SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 (SSRS 2012) that contains a Tablix control.

  • The Tablix control contains text that extends across multiple pages in the report.

  • You run the report, and then you export the report as a PDF or image file.

In this scenario, the text is truncated in the PDF or image file.
