Export PDF SfReportViewer with code

Is there a way to have the report viewer export a PDF with code?

I am wanting to generate reports and then display them as a PDF, without the need to have the user click the export button and select the format then select a location and name.

I was able to find a KB on this where i use a report writer. I am able to export the PDF to a file in the cod behind, but now i cant get the report to load the parameters like i would in report viewer.

I was able to figure it out, you can add data sources before loading the report but you must set the parameters after loading the report.
