barcode missing when printing from reporting services

I am using a barcode font 39 to generate barcodes in some reports. If I
reader the report and save it to a excel spreedsheet and print then the
report prints fine with the barcode.
If while I am in the browser I use the reporting services print engine the
barcode comes out as the numbers ie *12345* instead of the barcode font. The
numbers also come up in the preview of the printing.
I have installed the font on the local and reporting service computersI have just also found that if I export to Excel the barcode works but if I
export to PDF it doesn't.

I had the same problem. I wish Microsoft would release a fix to the problem
but I found a work-around by making the textbox (that holds the barcode in
the [rdl]) 3 times larger than the required size. This will of course mess
up your design.

Are there any samples available that will show me how to do this?
Do I need to purchase a third-party component?
Thanks,

suggestions? I follwed the directions to a "T". Did you have to "tweak"
anything to get it to work for you?

backward compatability

Hi,
I was just wondering if you build a database in sql2005 and then save the
file(backup dbase) would it work to perform a restore from this file with
sql2000?
thanks.

Compatibility is forward only, typically for two versions. A SQL 7.0 backup
will restore to 2000 and 2005, but not 2008 (forthcoming).

are using both 2000 production/ 2005 testing(production in near future) .
