report viewer control exporting content to pdf

Question

I am creating asp.net net app for a client and he likes to have reports on his page so i have on the page rdlc file and im using default asp.net report viewer control to present this file on the page...everything is ok except when the client wants to save the file as pdf the structure of the page changes and it doesnt look the same also i have notice that some of the values in fields are empty but they appear on the page and when im saving the same report in Word(*.doc) format also the word file is like it should be...the problem is only with the pdf. Any suggestions are welcome
