Hi,
I'm using Reporting Service to print checks. Everything seems ok when I design and deploy and view the reports. But when I try to export to pdf, the MICR font I'm using does not work. I've tried a couple of different MICR fonts from the web and they either get replaced by a standard font or disappear altogether. I would love to know why that is.
Thanks in advance,
Tom
Hi Tom,
I am having the same problem did you by any chance solve this problem
Thanks
We don't embed fonts in the PDF. This means the font needs to be installed on the machine you are opening the pdf on.
Hi Tom
Thanks for replying
But i tryed even to Open the PDF on the same mechine that i am running the SSRS Report From that has the micr font in it , and still dont see the Micr Font in the PDF at all not even substitute with a other font what could be the problem
Thanks
Like Ryan said, make sure you have the font installed on both the server and on the client.
I have seen several barcode fonts that do not include the correct spacing or at least do not report the correct spacing through the Win32 APIs our PDF renderer calls. It's also very possible we have a bug in that area. 
If you file a bug at http://connect.microsoft.com and include the rdl and font, I'll gladly take a look.
Thanks,

I am facing the same problem. The text in MICR Font disappears when i render the report to PDF.
Is there any solution/workaround for this problem
Ok... we found a solution.
Increase the height and width of the textbox, which contains the text in MICR font.
that solved our issue
can also be that your rdl file is corupted so try the same on a other rdl file with same font and a text box the hight be bigger than the font and see then
also check the pdf file by CTRL-D fonts tab check if the pdf has the font in it, if it dose you shuld be good to go just play around with the Height if the text box
