Exporting a Drill-Down to PDF

We're trying to export a report that has drill-down information in it to PDF.
Whenever we do export it, the pdf does not expand the drill-downs for us,
which is useless. Is there a work around or any suggestions, please.
Thank youExporting to PDF should mirror what you see in HTML. Are you saying that
you've expanded sections in HTML and the exported PDF shows these as
collapsed?

i.

b.
i.
ii.
2.
a.
etc...
But the export to PDF shows it all collapsed regardless of what is actually
expanded.

>>|||The tiff renders whatever the report is currently displaying. I am using RS
2000 SP 2. I am not actually in front of the system for the actual version
number, but we have been running SP 2 for quite some time. We actually are
having to go back and start making "emergency" no drill-down versions of
these reports.

to take a look. The TIFF and PDF renderings should both reflect what is
shown in IE. Does this repro using another ccomputer as the client?
