Exporting to PDF fails when report includes a barcode

Post Author: Lorne Chisholm
CA Forum: Exporting
I am getting the following error when I try to export a Crystal Report file to a PDF format:
CRAXDRT Error Occured on Server. -2147189152: Cannot find the QE property
I am able to export the report to RTF or Excel format without getting any errors. I am also able to export the same report if I remove the barcoded field. The font I am using is Bar Code 39. The version of Crystal Reports that I am using is 11.
I would like to know what the QE property is and more importantly how to resolve this issue. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I have a similar problem. I am trying to print a report via the WEB. I have the font installed on the webserver but the print function does a conversion to PDF prior to printing. The barcode font does not appear in the PDF file and therefore does not pront properly. I dont get an error, it just kills the Barcode Font and prints the text. I installed the Bacode functions on my design machine but what needs to go on the server besides the font ?
Did you ever resolve this issue?
Thanks

Export to Text failing when Report height is more than 23 inches

I have a problem while exporting to Text, when report height is more than 23 inches. It's failing with "an unhandled exception occurred in crw32.exe [3856]"
Both Crystal Reports 2008 and Crystal Reports XI Release 2 are failing. Export to PDF is working fine.
I am trying to design a lengthy report and export to text.
I searched in forum with out any results.
It would be great, if some body can point me in right direction. Thank you.

Hi Raveendra
To work around this error message, disable DEP by performing the following steps:
1. Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2. Double-click 'System'. The "System Properties" dialog box appears.
3. Click the 'Advanced' tab.
4. Click 'settings' under 'performance'.
5. Click the 'Data Execution Prevention' tab
6. Select 'Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select:'.
7. Click 'Add'.
8. Browse for the application CRW32.exe. This file is located in:
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Crystal Reports 12\
9. Select CRW32.exe and click 'Apply'.
10. Click 'OK' to close the 'System Properties' dialog box.
11. Log on as an Administrator and start Crystal Reports.
Now try to export report to the text format and observe the behavior.

Email Subscription Fails when report includes and Excel ODBC Data Source

I have developed a report in SSRS vs3 which uses a SQL 2008r2 datasource and an Excel datasource using an ODBC connection.
The report runs perfectly well manually, and from a subscription it will run the report and write the file to a UNC folder.
However if i try to setup a subscription to email the file it fails everytime with the following message
"Failure sending mail: Exception 0xc0000005 was generated at address 0x000007FEF1D95B3B Mail will not be resent."
I have tried the usual searches online but not managed to find an explination, work around or resolution.
Thank you in advance for any help offered.

Hi Adam,
Based on my research, the problem may occur if the From field of the e-mail message contains more than 255 characters or there are something wrong with cdosys.dll library, because all the errors come from exchange's cdosys.dll library (CDO - Collaboration
Data Objects) that SSRS uses to send emails.
In the first scenario, please ask the System administrator to check if the mail server has been updated or if there is any error in the mail server. In the second scenario, restart report server could help as you basically restarting the process and reloading
all libraries.

Exporting to PDF fails for a report

Hi,
One of my reports no longer exports to PDF. When run through our ERP system it looks as if it's exporting but the progress popup window quickly dissappears. When we go to the location where the exported file should be nothing is there.
I tried opening up the report in the Crystal 11 and exporting from there. I get the following two error messages:
Failed to export the report.
Not supported
This was working yesterday. The only thing I did was to add the u2lbar.dll to the bin folder and copy over the barcode font so that we could display barcodes on this report. However, even if I comment the line to do the barcode I still get the same problem.
Thanks,
Jon

The font you are using probably doesn't have embedding permissions.

Export to PDF fails for some reports, but report viewer works

Hi all
Our application produces several different reports.
- Report A can successfully be viewed in the ASP.NET report viewer control and can be exported to PDF
- Reports B and C can successfully be viewed in the ASP.NET report viewer (all pages), but export to PDF fails with a very unclear error message. The stack trace is attached below.
Two days ago, reports B and C have fully worked, and I'm sure by 100% that the report templates haven't been modified since then.
Can anyone explain what is going wrong? Is there some internal logging inside Crystal Reports that can be investigated to find out about the reasons of the error?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Kuno
PS.: The Crystal Libraries under investigation are quite old. In fact, it is a very old application that still runs under .NET 1.0.

Hello Kuno,
please try to find out more details.
You say it is data dependent. Could you be a bit more specific. What data work or do not work ?
As a good test pls see if our samples reports work. They come with a default installation. If you do not have them any more - get them from [here|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100005852352008E/cr_xi_xtreme_rep_smpl_en.zip].
Can you display and export them ? Do you get the same error ?
Thanks in advance

Export to .pdf fails.

Tar 6388351.992
Customer is on DBI 7.0.1 and XML Publisher 5.0.0
DBI uses XML publisher to export to .pdf.
When trying to export reports to PDF, the customer gets an
"Exception in Process Method Of FOProcessor "error message.
This does not occur when exporting to Excel.
After setting up a trace we got the error message:
[070507_112246550][][ERROR] Failed to load the image:
http://nadine1.orange.cm:8000/237/OA_MEDIA/bisorcls.gif
The problem is this URL
http://nadine1.orange.cm:8000/237/OA_MEDIA/bisorcls.gif
It should be
http://nadine1.orange.cm:8000/OA_MEDIA/bisorcls.gif
The customer has checked and this one without /237 in it works.
The customer's <db_servername> .XML file and <appl_top>/admin/adovars.env
both show the correct setting for OA_MEDIA and he has run autoconfig again.
Does anyone know where this misconfiguration could be
coming from.

Hi
Please use the internal mailing list for XMLP questions the forums are meant for customers not support or development.
That said, as I remember the integration, XMLP just generates the ouput. the DBI module is in charge of where its put and how its accessed. Id suggest asking the DBI dev team for some help.

How can I export to PDF for Offset printing including color and grayscale photo's?

After reading dozens of forum, I still don’t found the answer.
I made a photobook with full-colur and B/W photos for Offset printing. I want the B/W to be in grayscale to avoid color possible color shades. It seems InDesign doesn’t support grayscale, the images become way to dark. Even with exporting without any colour conversion or destination and/or including original colour profiles, the grayscale pictures are being exported to dark to PDF.
How can I export to PDF for Offset printing including color and grayscale photo’s?

Yes, the Photoshop & ID CMYK working spaces are the same
This can get difficult because the 3 programs handle soft proofing differently.
The working spaces don't matter, it's the document profile(s) that manage the preview. So here is the same grayscale image placed in ID on top and PS on the bottom. I've set my Photoshop info to show the doc profile in the lower left corner. I can see my InDesign's Document CMYK profile in my Proof Setup (the Working CMYK is different and isn't being used). Both profiles are effectively the same Coated FOGRA39 (Black Ink FOGRA in the case of PS).
But the previews don't match because I have Overprint turned off, so the InDesign preview is Gamma 2.2 or a "screen" media preview.
If I turn on Overprint preview I get a match because I'm soft proofing for print:

Background Colour Incorrect when exporting to PDF from Crystal Reports 2008

Hello All
When exporting to PDF from CR2008 the background colour of the crosstab is incorrectly displayed. The problem is as follows to create a crosstab with a grey header row and column details in white we have used the following trick.
Format Cross Tab Border Background is set to Silver.
Crosstab Expert Grand Total Background colour is set to white.
The result is a crosstab with header in grey and details in white.
This report displays correctly in CR2008, and exports as seen on screen to everything but PDF. When exporting to PDF the Crosstab is completely grey taking on only the Background colour of silver, and ignoring the Grand Total Background colour being set to white.
What is strange that when I print to PDF the format is also displayed exactly as required,
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Some additional details.
CR2008 version 12.3.1.683
Adobe Reader version 9.3.3
Windows XP Professional
Thanks

If this is a big issue for you then please purchase a case and a Rep can duplicate and escalate to R&D.
As a work around export to Editable RTF and in Word 2007 you can get a PDF export plug-in and then export to PDF.
Thank you

Error while exporting in pdf in crystal report XI

CA Forum: General
hi
I am getting the following error in crystal report XI while exporting to pdf.
The Error:
Method 'ISCREditableRTFExportFormatOptions_reserved5' on type 'CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.EditableRTFExportFormatOptionsClass' from assembly 'CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel, Version=11.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304' is overriding a method that has been overridden.
Please Help.
Thanking in advance.

The stack trace is caused by whitespace in your CrystalReportViewer.jsp file. Look up SAP Note 1199025 for the resolution.
It's not related to the PDF formatting issue. There's been changes to the formatting with the most recent version - Crystal Reports for Eclipse 2.0 - so if you haven't already, I recommend you upgrade.
Note that there's differences in font metric calculation when using Adobe PDF format such that there's no way to get exact agreement between output of the CR and PDF. But the latest version helps greatly.

Report with Summary & Detail - Exporting to PDF in Crystal Report

Hi,
I am using Crystal Reports XI (release 2). I am trying out a report with Summary and Detail sections.
Requirement:
1.     Report should display both Summary and Detail Sections
2.     Summary section should be displayed first followed by Detail Section
3.     A field in summary section should have a hyperlink to Detail Section
4.     On clicking the hyperlink the user should be navigated to the corresponding detail record
5.     User should be able to download the whole report as a single PDF (i.e., both summary and detail together)
Implementation in Crystal Report:
This feature could be implemented using
a.     Linked On Demand Sub report
b.     Using Hide (Drill down ok) option
c.     Hyperlinks
Issue Faced:
I used the on demand sub report option. When i clicked on the sub report (hyperlink), the details get displayed. But the details get displayed in separate viewer and hence when we export to PDF both summary and detail are not getting exported together. User has to select each detail report and export to PDF. Is this a limitation in CR XI? - proprietary Crystal Report features, such as drill-down and on-demand subreports, are supported only in the native Crystal Report format. These special features are ignored when exporting a report to a non-Crystal format like pdf.
Is there any workaround for exporting both the summary and detail (in subreport) as a single PDF file?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Viji.

Hi
Hyperlink would not be a solution to what you are asking for.
If you want to see the records related to a particular employee id by clicking on emp id, you can try the below:
- Apply a group on employee id on the main report.
- Insert a subreport with the required fields and place it on the Employee id Group header. You can put a name of the subreport as "Check Employee details" or something else as per requirement and make it a on demand subreport.
- Link the subreport on Employee id.
Hope this helps!!!

Export to pdf failed while using Barcode 128 with CR Basic 2008

Hello,
I get the following error message when I try to export a Crystal Report Document to pdf: Error in File
"C:\DOKUME1\URSULA1.HAR\LOKALE~1\Temp\temp_57163b88-26f9-43c1-8043-d3938772b762 {F54D4509-BFEF-444C-B672-DF893EEBD942}.rpt": Operation not yet implemented.
This error only apears when the report contains a barcode with the font Code-128 (print in Barcodetype 128). Is this function not possible with Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008? Must I install an additional tool?
Waiting for your answer and kind regards
Ursula

Hi Ursula,
Please provide following:
1) Service Pack you are on (CR)?
2) Visual Studio version
3) Windows or Web Application?
Thanks

InDesign CS5.5 Export to PDF fails how to fix?

Using InDesign CS5 to creat a portfolio, all layed out and ready to print but when I export to PDF it takes a long time and then fails.
What am I doing wrong?

Is the issue with the one file only or with multiple file, if it is with the one file only then there could be some component like Image , font that could be causing the issue,
And if it with the multiple file then you can try this article:- kb2.adobe.com/cps/878/cpsid_87876.html

How to pause screen when reporting "include in quiz" is on

In captivate 6 in a noraml screen i am using a button and added reporting "include in quiz" option
also added the script on "On Exit" as below
the above script work fine on all other screens, but when the reporting on button is on the above script does not work, As i have observed that timeline dose not reach to last frame of the screen where this script should run. the action above for "Show = Play_btn" and "Hide = Pause_btn" does not the me the change in the image.
please suggest me for the solution.

Thanks.
On the next button on which the reporting is on the action is just to go on next slide.
below is the screeshot for Timeline for one of the screen.
i have observed that by adding the reporting to button on any screens (with custom next back buttons used) will not pause the screen till we click the next button assigned to go to next slide.
also as in the action panel screenshot above i have only used the hide show command to show hide 2 images which are used on 1st screen and set to be used for rest of the project. which are working fine if the reporting function is off. it is not working if the reporting on any button on any screen is done on.
pls suggest if any other option to do so.
