The HTML rendered and the PDF renderer obviously aren’t identical, so you shouldn’t expect completely identical results.  
It’s impossible to address your particular problem, because you didn’t tell us almost anything about it.

OK so the problem is on the report, if you use a printer or print to file that the real design, try to set fixed size not autosize for textbox, images etc…

There is a report property menu in the Visual Studio, try to set its margin to zero and in the design, view the ruler and set its margin based on the ruler.

As kornflakes001831 said, there is a report property in the visual studio, and on that you have to do page Setup.

Just right click on the report(outside the report border), you will get the option to do page setup and “View Ruler” .

On Report Property\>page setup, you will get options like setting paper size, margins etc.

Your width of paper size should always be greater than or equal to your report paper size + left and right margin.

width of paper size\> = report paper size + left margin + right margin

In my report, the width is 8.27" and the report size is 7.5"(approx), left margin is 0.25" and right margin is 0.25"

8.25\>8.0(7.5+0.25+0.25)
