Can't export to PDF with hidden group

I have a report that uses a matrix control to display the data. After
spending hours on the report getting it to look right in Report Manager, I
went to export to PDF and could not. I got the error "Internet Explorer
cannot download format=PDF".
So I proceeded to recreate the report step by step. At each step, I
deployed, ran, and try to export to pdf.
The problem comes when I have a group make the visible property=false.
My work around is to change the Font color to white and disable growing.
Is this a known issue and is being worked on or should I report this to MS?Please email me a copy of your .rdl and .rdl.data file so I can take a look.
Also, please send me a copy of the error you're seeing in the latest log
file in your /ReportServer/LogFiles directory.

certainly wouldn't hurt anything so please email me a copy of your .rdl and
.rdl.data file so I can take a look.
Thanks.
