Hi, i apologize if i am posting to the wrong area. This is my first post.
I need some advice on PowerBI Report Builder "Custom Rendering Extensions" or SSRS as a backup.
1) How difficult it is to develop a Custom PDF Rendering extension which populates PDF Custom properties with a data field.

Kind regards, Manjit.
