    Hi Ennio,

    Currently the ReportBuilder PDF device converts advanced drawcommands such
    as RTF and BarCodes to bitmaps before they are transferred to the PDF file.
    This can cause a reduction in the quality of these components in some cases.
    This is something we have on our todo list to enhance for a later release of
    ReportBuilder. For an immediate workaround, you might try using the third
    party export device Gnostice as I believe the quality of such components is
    improved.
