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.

Integrate Crystal Reports 2008 in Lotus Notes 8.x

We allready use Crystal Reports 2008 with Lotus Notes 8.x trough NotesSQL 8.5. This works fine.
Now we want integrate Crystal Reports 2008 directly in Lotus Notes 8.x. so that the user can start reports directly from his Lotus Notes Application. Of course, data has to be retrieved in realtime (not with data stored in the report) and he should be able to pass parameters from a lotus notes form.
All informations we found are quit old (Crystal Reports 8.5 and Lotus Notes R5). Does anyone has an idea how to start and where to find new documentations? Is there maybe even a sample application availabl?
Any help is welcome!

Crystal Report Server xi and Crystal report 2008 Barcode

Hi, I have a crystal report server running (version xi) and have designed some reports using crystal report 2008.
My problem is that I have used barcodes in the new reports and the server throws up an error about the barcode dll.
Error message is
Unable to retrieve Object.
Error in File Report: Error in formula . 'BarcodeC39ASCII( ToText(CurrentFieldValue) )' UFL 'u2lbcode.dll' that implements this function is missing.
Can I copy this dll to the server so that it runs ?
Also, is there a crystal report server 2008, I dont see an install option on my CD?
Is my only option to purchase Crserver 2008 ?

Hi Philip,
If you check in Crystal Reports designer when you created your formula, you will notice in the 'Function Tree' of the Formula editor the DLL that responsible for 'Barcode39ASCII'. The DLL is u25azalea.dll.
Since this DLL was only shipped for CR2008 and not Crystal Reports XI there may be other dependencies. As far as the location where it should be placed for CRS-XI, it would most likely need to reside in:
\Program Files\Business Objects\common\3.x\bin

Crystal Reports 2008 - dynamic parameters not returing all data

I am having the same issue with Crystal Reports 2008. Only returning 135 customers in a dynamic paramaters when the list should be 3288.
When I re-create the parameter by using a command instead of relying on Crystal to return the data from the db table Crystal returns only 5"pages" of customers to select from.
I have tried to run the report with this reduced selection & it then crashes.
Any ideas??

This article may help you to increase the number of values in the parameter
KBase Article ID:c2017238
Article refers to: Crystal Reports XI BusinessObjects Enterprise XI
Symptom
For performance reasons, in Crystal Reports XI Release 1 and Release 2 the maximum number of values that are returned for a list of values is set to 1000. If you have a cascading List of Values (for example Country > Region > City), the lowest level (in this case City) will only display a maximum of 1000 values. This means that the higher-level prompts may display far fewer values than you expect. The list of values provides the data for the dynamic parameter list.
How can you modify the maximum number of values available in a dynamic parameter list?
Resolution
To increase the maximum number of values available in a dynamic parameter list, you must add a registry key.
CAUTION     The following resolution involves editing the registry. Using the Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall the Microsoft Windows operating system. Use the Registry Editor at your own risk. For information on how to edit the registry key, view the 'Changing Keys and Values' online Help topic in the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
It is strongly recommended that you make a backup copy of the registry files (System.dat and User.dat on Win9x computers) before you edit the registry.
Crystal Reports XI Release 1
1.     Create a registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV.
NOTE     Alternatively, you can create the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV and that key will override the settings of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV key.
2.     Add a string value "MaxRowsetRecords" and set the value to the maximum number of values that you desire for your report. For example, a value of 2000 will return up to 2000 values in the lowest level of a cascading parameter. NOTE: The value 0 (Unlimited) will not work with BusinessObjects Enterprise XI or Crystal Reports Server XI, you must specify another value.
NOTE     The higher the number of values is, the longer it will take the Enter Values dialog box to populate with values.
3.      After making changes to the registry, restart the affected service or application as required.
Crystal Reports XI Release 2
1.     Create a registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV.
NOTE     Alternatively, you can create the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV and that key will override the settings of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV key.
2.     Add a string value "MaxRowsetRecords" and set the value to the maximum number of values that you desire for your report. For example, a value of 2000 will return up to 2000 values in the lowest level of a cascading parameter.
NOTE     The value 0 (Unlimited) will not work with BusinessObjects Enterprise XI or Crystal Reports Server XI, you must specify another value.
3.     After making changes to the registry, restart the affected service or application as required.

Crystal Reports 2008 Trial crashes; crw32.exe error; any fix?

I downloaded the trial for Crystal Reports 2008 and I can open the application fine, but when I go to create a report and click on the u201CCreate New Connectionu201D for the database I get a Just-in-time error for crw32.exe and my application shuts down.
Iu2019ve been trying to look for a resolution in your forums but could not find anything. I check for updates it says there are none; I've uninstalled and reinstalled already didn't fix it; I've download sp1 manually and installed but no luck.
I do have MS SQL Server 2008 installed on my system, could this be causing some problems?
I'm running Windows XP, also have VS .NET 2003 installed, but I'm only wanting to use CR 2008 application.
Similar to this existing problem: An unhandled Win32 exception occurred in crw32.exe 5048. Crystal 2008 Crash
I cannot uninstalled SQL Server 2008 because I need it.

Hi Henry,
Crystal Reports 2008 is not officially tested with SQL Server 2008.
Try with this:
1. Reduce the 'Hardware acceleration' setting in Microsoft Windows.
2. To access the 'Hardware acceleration' setting in Microsoft Windows:
Click Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Display > Settings > Advanced > Troubleshooting.
There are typically six possible settings for 'Hardware acceleration': from 'None' to 'Full'.
If you are using Dual monitor run the CR application on primary monitor cause Dual monitor is not tested with CR.
If still the issue occurs then manually un-install and reinstall the application.

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 Reports text in Arabic not exporting to PDF properly

Dear All
We use crystal reports XI developer edition along with Oracle 10G. The reports bring data from oracle which is in Arabic. The report works fine, displays the data in the viewer as desired, however when the user exports the report to PDF, the arabic text becomes jumbled.
I am not sure where the problem lies. Can anyone help me fix this issue.

Exception with Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime SP2 and Export to Word/RTF

When I export a report (DataSource ADO.NET DataSet) with many records (in my case about 17000 but the records are stretched from about 370 pages to about 800 pages ), I get an exception:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Ungültiger Zeiger (German, English: Invalid pointer?)
When I dont't stretch the records (that means record by record without pagebreak) it works fine.
Any ideas?
I think the problem is the expected file size. When I export from the development enviroment the doc-file is 566 MB. Open this wiht MS-Word I get the Message: Word cannot open files > 512 MB.
Somehow the problem seams to depend on this fact.
Anyway, MS-Word cannot work with files > 512 MB. So I don't need to think about the problem further.
Edited by: Sven G. on Mar 24, 2010 11:14 AM

That is an interesting finding.
One thing you may want to try is FP 2.5. Perhaps the exported file will be smaller and thus let you export more pages(?). Other than that, keeping the file size down via selection formulas or smaller datasets will be the way to go.
FP2.5 is here:

Crystal reports 2008 SP1 missing in BusinessObjects Crystal Reports website

We have used Crystal reports 2008 as a reporting utility in our application and have released our product last year. During our release the latest software available was Crystal reports 2008 base + SP1 + SP2 + Fix Pack 2.7 and same was mentioned in our documentation as mentioned in BELOW.
The current supported version of Crystal Reports is Crystal Reports 2008 with
Service Pack 2 and Fixpack 2.7. The installation sequence is as follows:
1. Install Crystal Reports 2008 base.
2. Install Crystal Reports 2008 SP1.
3. Install Crystal Reports 2008 SP2.
4. Install Fixpack 2.7. This can be found under the hotfix section on the web site.
Questions
1) Now the issue is that, Crystal reports 2008 SP1 is NOT available for download in the "Business Objects u2013 Crystal Reports Runtime Packages". Why was it removed? Any clue? Without this our instructions doesn't hold good.
2) If Crystal reports 2008 SP1 will NOT be available any more then what is the equivalent installable for "Crystal reports 2008 base + SP1 + SP2 + Fix Pack 2.7" to be used? Can Crystalreports 2008 SP3 Full Build + Fix Pack 3.3 be used instead of "Crystal reports 2008 base + SP1 + SP2 + Fix Pack 2.7" ?
Pls Clarify.

Hello,
Download Service Pack 3.0 full build: https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009989492010E/cr2008_sp3_fullbuild.zip
and then Fix Pack 3.3: https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100016815822010E/cr2008fp33.exe
Then you and your users don't need to go through all of those upgrade steps.
Thank you

Memory could no be read in Crystal Reports 2008

I'm getting the following error in Crystal Reports 2008 when I want to open the Format menu in the toolbar The moment Crystal Reports 2008 has just started (no report is loaded):
Crystal Reports: crw32.exe - Application Error
The Instruction at "0x00a1305d" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".
Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program
The moment I click on the format menu a process SVCHOST has 100% CPU Usage for some moments and after a few seconds the errormessage appears.
I'm working on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Service Pack 2 with 2 CPU's and 3 GB of memory.
The version of Crystal Reports is an evaluation version with Service Pack 2 on it (version = 12.0.0.840).
When I install the same Crystal Report version on the client, the error doesn't occurs.
What could be wrong on the server.?

Crystal Reports 2008 - Changing Table Locations

Hello,
we have several reports which we use by different customers. The customers use different name spaces (table locations) for the same data. To use the same reports with different table locations, we wrote a piece of software replacing the connection strings and table locations.
Example:
A report should be used in a test environment as well as in a production environment:
The original SQL is (using a DB2 database on a AS400):
    SELECT alias.name FROM as400.production.users alias
The modified SQL looks like:
    SELECT alias.name FROM as400.test.users alias
Up to now we used Crystal XI and developed using RDC. We solved the above described problem by reading the report SQL string, replacing the table location in this string and assigned it back to the report object. Modifying the SQL string has the advantage that it works fine also for reports which contain a SQL command.
Since Crystal Reports 2008 this is not possible anymore (no RDC, no direct way to modify the report SQL string).
My first approach was to use the CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table object. First I just wanted to see what really was the content of the Location and Name property:
for (int i = 0; i < rdReport.Database.Tables.Count; ++i)
Table rt = rdReport.Database.Tables<i>;
Console.WriteLine("Table Nr : {0}", i);
Console.WriteLine(" Table Loc : {0}", rt.Location);
Console.WriteLine(" Table Name : {0}", rt.Name);
My problem with this is that the output for the report with the SQL in the above example is:
Table Nr: 0
Table Loc : users
Table Name: alias
So obviously not the real table location and table name is returned, but instead the table name for the table location and the alias for the table name. Unsurprisingly setting the location had not the originally desired effect.
Furthermore if the report was designed using a SQL command, the location and in the name property contain the string COMMAND. Therefore the table object doesn't seems to be the solution to my problem.
Thanks to the help of a user in this forum here, I figured out how to read the SQL string of a report. Unfortunately I did not found a way to assign it back to the report.
Has anybody here an idea how to solve my problem? I'm open for every kind of hint.
Thanks in advance,
Ron

How to get the Report Page count using crystal reports 2008

Hi,
I have to implement a business logic where in i will have to display the no. of pages generated for the report
Say for e.g. crytal report that's generated spans 25 pages in the report.
Then i will have to display a message to the user after the report generation something like "25 Pages generated"
So, how would i get this report page count so that i can fetch the value and display the same to the user.
Any sample code snippet would be of great help.
Thanks in Advance

Ramnath

Hi,
I am using crystal reports 2008 and i visited the link forwarded in your previous mail and got the solution for getting the lastpagenumber of the report.
nPages = crReport.FormatEngine.GetLastPageNumber(New CrystalDecisions.Shared.ReportPageRequestContext)
but, i don't find FormatEngine property for ReportDocument object.
I just wanted to know whether this property is availale in crystal reports 2008 or should i even install any service packs for this.
Please find below the namespaces that importing in my class
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Drawing.Printing
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Imports CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.ViewerObjectModel

Please let me know how can i get the formatEngine property for reportdocument object
Thanks in Advance

Crystal Reports 2008 export to PDF does not render Japanese fonts

Hello,
I have searched the forums for this issue, and there does not seem to be a clear resolution to this problem. We are using CR2008 to create RPT files that are bundled with our custom .NET 2005 application, which then generates reports in PDF format by running the RPT files against an access mdb database using the CR2008 runtime (our application is deployed on a different machine than the one that is used to create the RPT files). The issue we are having occurs when data in the access mdb file contains Strings with Japanese characters. The system that our application is running on does contain the eastern asian language fonts so if a user opens the mdb file using access, they can see the Unicode strings in the database rendered properly (rather than the usual boxes and garbage). However, once our application generates the report filling in the rpt file with data from the mdb and exporting the report to pdf format, the entries that should contain Japanese font data, which leads me to believe the problem is in the export pdf function of the crystal reports 2008 runtime. Is there anyway we can configure the runtime to properly embed the fonts in the PDF so that the users can view the Japanese content from the database. Our users end up viewing reports on both OSX and Windows using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Thank you very much in advance

Thanks for the quick reply!
1) Exact version of Crystal Reports. (Open Crystal Developer. Go to Help> About Crystal Reports).
12.0.0.683
Type: Full
2) What happens if you export the report to PDF format from the standalone Crystal Reports Designer?
Same result. The entry shows up as giberish in the report designer preview...however, by doing this I stumbled upon something. See below
3) Are you able to export the report to other formats without any issue?
See Note below
NOTE:
In another part of the report, I just put the fields in question directly in the report (that is, not embedded in a text object). That part of the report when run produces the correct non-gibberish, properly rendered Japanese result (in the CR designer preview). The same field, however, when embedded in a text object, results in the gibberish being shown in the designer preview as well.
Now when I export this to PDF, that ends up turning both areas into the incorrect, gibberish result. Both the one that did properly render in the preview (field not embedded in text object) and the one in the text object.
Exporting to any other format (tried xls, rtf and html) results in correct rendering for the field not embedded in the text object and incorrect rendering for the field embedded in a text object.
Hope this helps with the problem, and I think it means this thread probably still belongs under this current forum.
Cheers

Font style issue with exporting report in Crystal Reports 2008

Hi,
I got stuck on the below issue for a while. Please can anyone help on this?
When I designed and executed a report in Crystal Reports 2008 on my local PC, the font style and size used in charts were exactly what I was expecting.
However, after I exported the report to our BusinessObjects CMC and displayed it in InfoView, the font style and size in charts looked quite different from what they were in CrystalReports.
Any ideas of how to fix this issue?
Thanks!

Hi Nanda Kishore,
This is because you do not have proper rights on Business View Manager. Whenever you create a dynamic parameter in crystal and try to save the report on BO, it creates a Business view automatically. Now in your case, it is unable to create a business view due to insufficient rights.
Go in Business View Manager u2013 Repository exploreru2014You will find Dynamic Cascading Prompts folderu2014Right click on that and go in rights and add your user information and give full rights.
Also make sure that your BO and CR designer on same version and patch level.
Thanks,
Sastry

Sample Code:
Report = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
Report.Load(Server.MapPath(strReportPath));
Report.SetDataSource(dsReport);
Creportviewer.ReportSource = Report;
For exporting the report to PDF
string Filename = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.InternetCache).ToString(), Guid.NewGuid().ToString() + ".pdf");
Report.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, Filename);
Clean Up Code: (Page_UnLoad event)
if (Report != null)
     Report.Close();
     Report.Dispose();
Creportviewer.ReportSource = null;
Creportviewer.Dispose();
dsReport = null;
GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
Can someone help me resolve the issue.

The .rpt file size is 14MB with the Data Save option enabled, 12MB without Data Save. Presumably the 12MB file size is because of the 24bit PNG we have as our background.
The Designer executes the report in less than a second and we can scroll through all pages and see the image fields perfectly.
When we Export to PDF, the Designer takes a long time, eventually gets to the 77%, the 7th record and returns "Export report failed" followed by "Memory full". If we export only page 1 of the 3 pages, it also returns a Memory full error. However, when the same report is run with only 1 page, that page exports to PDF but with a ridiculously large size and export time.
The machine has 2GB of physical memory with an 8GB pagefile with Windows 2003 (latest everything). The process runs up to about 1GB before reporting the memory full error.
We've also tried a variety of other suggestions posted in the other thread with no success.
We're happy to provide the RPT file to the Report Team to diagnose the problem. Ultimately, we need to be able to produce a 15 page report with approximately 45 images.
Our preferred scenario is fixing problem 2. The CR Designer seems quite capable of rendering our report and printing it to our third party PDF printer in a timely manner with small size. However, the API reports memory full.
The API resides in a dedicated reporting web service with NO other code except for loading the report, setting parameters and printing. When executing, it uses up to about 1.1GB before reporting the error.
Are there any other suggestions for fixing what we have? Are there known problems with large images in reports? Do we need to lodge a formal support request?
Regards, Grant.
