    Sometimes objects go bad. That can include reports, as well as forms, etc.

    It may well be that, by recreating this report in a clean accdb, you've demonstrated the original version just went bad, i.e. was corrupted.

    Yes, this is something new, I guess, as I am able to export my reports to PDF before. It seems like if I put anything other than the Detail section, they don't export. Thanks for your quick response.

    Is this a new change in behavior, i.e. did the reports properly show pictures and labels previously?

    I have never seen this before. Does this happen with all reports? Can you try a very simple report with maybe one label and one picture to see if the results are the same? Are the labels and pictures visible in both print preview and in a printed to paper report? Are the images large files with high resolution?
