Filename for PPT/PPS export via subscriptions comes up as mainstream.ppt

Hi.

I'm using Aspose.Slides with SSRS to email a power point presendation via SSRS subscriptions but the file name is always named "mainstream.ppt" rather than the report name. This is not an issue when I do a direct export from the report. It only occurs in the email subscription of the report.

Thanks

Aspose.Slides for SSRS doesn’t generate file name by itself. It uses file name returned by Reporting Services.
Probably email subscription returns name “mainstream”.

It doesn't return mainstream on any of the out of the box export file types so it has to do specifically with the ppt and pps file types your add on provides. Please look further into this issue for me.

Thanks

I found another post that was unawnsered about the filename coming up as mainstream.ppt when exporting directly to PPT rather than using the Export option after running the report. See the link below, can you explain why it would change the filename only when exporting direclty to PPT without running the report manually?
