Printing cheques in SSRS?

I am investigating SSRS 2005 as a possible reporting solution for a client and one of my requirements is to print cheques. Is the only way to do this to create a report in SSRS with the dimensions of the cheque with the data fields positioned properly or is there a better way of doing this? I have googled this problem but I am getting a lot of results for 'checkboxes', 'checking SSRS', and so on so that has been no help.

Thanks!

Yes, this could be done, and it would probably work pretty well. But SSRS isn't an ideal answer: printing from a web report is subject to the differences in browsers and their page setups & margins. Generating a .pdf and then printing seems like more steps than desirable.

If you decide to go ahead with this, use Rectangles: they try to hold their positions, even when the size of contents change. Also, set the CanGrow property to False everywhere.
