Create PDF with SQL Reporting Services

I am getting the following error when trying to export a
PDF file in SQL Reporting Services. Does anyone know what
the problem might be?
Reporting Services Error
Exception of type
Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportRendering.Report Rendering
Exception was thrown. (rrRenderingError) Get Online Help
Exception of type
Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportRendering.Report Rendering
Exception was thrown.
Cannot find font '?'.
Microsoft Reporting Services
There is a reporting services forum Microsoft.public.sqlserver.reportingsvcs
that can help you better with reporting services but it sounds like you do
not have a font installed on the server that is running reporting services.
Most server admins do not like applications installed willy nilly but you
may try installing MS Office (less Outlook) to get the font.

|||Why install an entire application to get a font?
How about finding out what font is needed and putting that font on the
server?
