Is there a tool or programming method available to take the layout defined in a PDF and import it into Sql Server Reporting Services 2005?
Quite a few layouts are created as PDFs by third parties. It would make development a lot easier if I could use some of the layout already defined.
I do not know of anything that will do this.
The only way I could think of is to convert the PDF file into a RDLC file. The RDLC file is a XML file, and follows a specific schema. To do this, would take a lot of time. Your probably better of creating the reports in report services manually.
I will definitely keep an eye out on this thread, however, I am quite certain that this solution does not yet exist.
