CR XI R2, Crystal Report Viewer Opentype Font not supported

Hi
For my reporting I selected an OpenType Font. But with my crystal version it doesnu2019t work. My Crystal version is
CR XI R2 Servicepack 3.
In the Crystal Report designer, I can select the OpenType Font but with the viewer it doesn't work. I saw in the release notes (2008 and XI) that only TrueType und Postscript fonts are supported.
Can you tell me, in wich version that OpenType Font will be supported?
Thanks a lot.
Pius

I find it hard to believe Crystal doesn't support OpenType fonts as I am told by my design group that OpenType fonts are a "superior, widely-supported format". I am finding this limitation very frustrating as my organization has a specific set of OpenType fonts that we are expected to use for branding purposes, but I can't use them in my reports! And I can't find TrueType versions of the fonts, so I am forced to use other fonts and end up with a very different end product.
Please reconsider!
Thank you.

Crystal Report Viewer changes font

Hello,
I am having an issue with Crystal Report Viewer NOT displaying the correct fonts. Below are the steps to recreate the issue
1) Created a Blank Crystal Report using Crystal Report 2008.
2) Added a few fields in them and selected the following font for all the fields :Courier 10 cpi
3) Saved the report with data.
4) Viewed the report using Crystal Report Viewer 2008.
5) The fields displayed in this Report Viewer is NOT Courier 10 cpi.
Please tell if there is a fix for this problem. Please Note that using a different font is NOT an option since I will be printing the report to a Dot Matrix printer. Using a different font will slow down the printing speed.
Thanks
Krishnan

Hi Carl,
There is a font named Courier 10,12,15(VGA res) installed on the machine.
Also the Courier 10 cpi is selected on all fields on the report. But when I view the report from CR viewer, it changes to a different font.
Also the report does not print properly to the dot matrix printer. The speed of the report is very slow and the page alignment is off. The first 2 lines of the 2nd page are printed at the end of the first page. The first 4 lines of the 3rd page prints at the end of the 3rd page and it keeps getting worse by each page.

Crystal Report Viewer Print does not work for IE7

Post Author: ssdudeveloper
CA Forum: .NET
When I view a report in IE7, and click the Print button in the Crystal Reports Viewer toolbar, an empty dialog window opens and no print dialog appears. The print functionality works correctly when viewing the same report using an IE6 browser.
I have tried changing the browser security settings (as per http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/cs/forums/thread/3171.aspx) - with Automatic prompting for file downloads set to Enable, but this does not resolve my problem.
Is this a known compatability issue with IE7? Are there any workarounds/solutions to this?

Crystal Reports 2008 Barcode font not exported to any format

Hi,
I am creating a report that will use IDAutomationC128XXL barcode font (GS1 standard). I have downloaded and installed this font in my machine. I use the Visual Basic UFLs (IDAutomationFontEncoderUCC128()) to convert my content to barcode. I also have changed the field's font to IDAutomationC128XXL (by right click and field formatting). After this, i am able to see the barcode created in the my report preview. However when i try to export my report to PDF or any other format, the barcode is not coming up. It comes empty when i export to PDF.
Am i missing any step to print barcodes in PDF during export from crystal report?

Hi Sankara,
Licensed fonts are Not exported to PDF.
You should get in touch with IDAutomation's support and ask what are the alternatives.

Crystal Report Viewer icons do not show in Web Application Project in VS2005 (Web Site Project OK)

Post Author: jsdude99
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi,
With Visual Studio 2005, the Icons at the top of the CrystalReportViewer do not show on Web Application Project. However, If I have a web site project, they are all shown. Please note that I found number of posts that people not seeing the icons after the deployment but my case is the development environment. Once I pass the first hurdle I may face further problems like the other people, so If you happen to know answers in both situations, please share your knowlegde..
PS: I created two new types of projetcs and have just a CrystalReportViewer on the default page. Data is shown fine but the icons are missing (red X placeholders instead of icons) in Web Application Project. Very straight forward test.

We havent tried that. We changed the link in the web part to access an html page that claims that the report is loading. It states in the html that if the page doesnt load to "click here" which redirects to the crystalreportviewer. Its a temp fix for it. One thing we are looking at is the 64 bit version of the Sharepoint integration kit. That may contain a reportviewer webpart.
Thanks for the reply.

Crystal Report Viewer Collapse Unneeded Lines

I have a CR open sales order report grouped by sales order number. Crystal report viewer outlines Sales Order #, customer name and doc total in the master line. Underneath that, it shows multi line items contain in that SO.
I am wondering, is there a way I can collapse the multi line items and only shows the master line item? We need this sometimes to present to management just to show the big picture.
Is it we can add a drill-down event to the crystal report viewer control? Not sure how to accomplish that. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
If the detail information is in the Detail section, you can set the Detail Section to Hide. This will only show the Sales Order information and have the ability to drill down to the Details when you need them.
Good luck,
Brian

If I change the user agent string in Firefox to that of Firefox 7.0.1 everything works as expected, this implies there is some logic in get_IsNetscape6Up() which is failing because the major browser version as reported by the user agent string is two digits instead of one.
We encountered a similar issue for our legacy pages containing Infragistics 2007 controls but were able to fix that by overriding the System.Web.Configuration.HttpCapabilitiesBase.BrowserCapabilitiesProvider and faking the browser version to 9.80. Crystal Report Viewer is apparently not using .Net's built in HttpBrowserCapabilities object, is there anything else I can adjust to stop the viewer failing?

hello Robert
Today must be my day. I already got a reply from PM (normally it takes a "bit" longer...). Anyhow, here is what he said:
With Firefoxu2019s release cycles, I donu2019t think weu2019ll be able to officially support the latest versions
of Firefox at every service release. We do our best to test the released versions of Firefox
that align with our releases. I donu2019t know the details but Iu2019ve heard there is a plan in place where
the support team(s) (?) will test the most recent releases of Firefox with whatu2019s currently
shipping by SAP and log bugs as necessary.
(umm, this is my - Ludek note here ) -> news to me re. support doing QA... find out something new every day. Anyhow, continuation of the message from PM:
The current plan for CR for VS2010, the SP3 release (expected in April) will support up to
Firefox 9. If there are reproducible bugs in Firefox 10 (or higher), then please enter a bug
and escalate and it will be investigated for the next available release.
I'll revisit this once SP3 is out there and do an escalation for Firefox 10 - ok?

Crystal Report Viewer Not viwed - Through APP Server Re-Direction

Hello Team
I have a critical problem in my organizaion for viewing the reports.
Configuration that we are using:
1. Windows Server 2008 R2
2. Crystal 13 - Server Trial Version - Expiring on Aug-25th, 2014
3. Used Visual Studio 2010 - .NET
4. IIS 7.0 - configured a Virtual Directory for ASP.NET application
Out Application is using an Oracle APP Server to view the HTML. A button is provided in the HTML to redirect to view the Crystal Report.
when I click on the Hyperlink and the url is directly accessed, then the Report is being shown without any issue.
But ours is a corporate application and we have given a provision of accessign this application when users are outside of network. Hence the Crystal Server is under fire-wall. So, I cannot access it directly with a URL. Hence the app server is configured in such a way that if it find a name like "Reports" in the URL, then it redirects to the actual Web Server and gets back the data to the browser.
for URL redirection, the app server is configured as below
 ProxyPass /crystalreportviewers/ http://<<ServerIP>>/crystalreportviewers/
 ProxyPassReverse /crystalreportviewers/ http://<<ServerIP>>/crystalreportviewers
 ProxyPass /reports10/ http://<<ServerIP>>/reports10/
 ProxyPassReverse /reports10/ http://<<ServerIP>>/reports10
When the user redirects from the APP server using those redirection rules, the pages are being executed but the final crystal report viewer control is not being shown on the browser. I am not sure if we need to perform any other steps to get these thigns done.
Our server is behind fire-wall and whenever I am in network, I used to get the output but when the redirection happens not able to load the Crystal Report Viewer. Not sure, if there are any other security rules that I need to consider to get back the CrystalReportViewer.
Also, there is something called CrystalReportInteractiveViewer prior to Crystal13. Do we have anything as such in Crystal 13 also? Please help me in getting this worked.
Please let me know if I am not clear in my explanation and I can certainly provide you a better information based on your queries.
Thanks

Fonts are not diplayed correctly in the Crystal Report Viewer control

Post Author: Farid
CA Forum: General
Hello,
I have designed a report in the Crystal Reports XI Designer (version 11.5.3.417) using the default printer. When I view it through the preview mode of the Designer, fonts are displayed like expected using the default printer driver.
Now, I view this same report at run time in the Crystal Report Viewer control on the same computer with the same default printer. Fonts appear then differently they were in the preview mode : sizes are differents and some texts are truncated. It seems that the default printer driver are not used.
Can anybody tell me if this behaviour is normal ? If it is the case how should I do to display a report in the Report Viewer using the default printer driver like I have specified it in the Designer.

You may want to select the "no Printer" option instead, this will force CR to use a higher resolution. Look in page setup, printer options.

Crystal Report Viewer (SmartViewerActiveX/ActiveXViewer) barcode problem

I am using the crystal reports viewer to show my reports in my asp website.
In the reports, I have a barcode using the font source IDAutomationHC39M.ttf.
This code must be a certain size that I indicated in my report design.
The problem is that the viewer appears in the browser with the barcode expanded to full size, and not with the size that I indicated in report design.
If I print from the program Crystal Reports, it appears according to the size indicated.
It seems that this is a problem of the Viewer in the browser.
Someone can help me? this matter is very urgent.
Thank you.

Thread moved to the .NET - SAP Crystal Reports forum.
A few details missing:
1) Version of CR?
2) CR updates applied?
3) Version of .NET?
4) OS?
5) What browser and version?
6) is the issue present on dev / deployed computer / both?
Oh, BTW.; if this is urgent, consider creating a phone case here:

However, if you would like to continue to use CR Viewer XI Tech Preview (we hope you will) => You can download and install GDI+ yourself: If you google âu20ACu02DCGDI+ Windows 2000 Microsoftâu20AC(tm) youâu20AC(tm)ll see the linksÂ Many thanksCR Viewer XI Tech Preview/Beta TeamÂ Ps We will be sending a survey to beta participants at the end of the beta period, and we look forward to your feedback in that survey.
