Crystal Report export to PDF cause high Heap usage ?

Hi all,
As part of our reporting integrated with our JSF/JSP application, Crystal report is converted to PDF then sent to browser for user to display. mean while during peak load our Heap usage could reach 3.5GB - 4GB. So I am suspecting the unclosed byteArrayInputStream is the cause.
(This is a production application so I am collecting information before change the code)
Is the unclosed() byteArrayInputStream really cause the problem ? (the codes is below)
Thank you,
Krist
ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream)
                                 reportClientDoc.getPrintOutputController().export(exportOptions);
reportClientDoc.close();
writeToBrowser(byteArrayInputStream, response, "application/csv", EXPORT_FILE);
private void writeToBrowser(ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream, HttpServletResponse
response, String mimetype, String exportFile)
   throws Exception {
      byte[] buffer = new byte[byteArrayInputStream.available()];
      int bytesRead = 0;
      response.reset();
      response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "inline;filename=" + exportFile);
      response.setContentType(mimetype);
      //Stream the byte array to the client.
      while((bytesRead = byteArrayInputStream.read(buffer)) != -1)
            { response.getOutputStream().write(buffer , 0, bytesRead);}
      //Flush and close the output stream.
      response.getOutputStream().flush();
      response.getOutputStream().close();

I do not know if my solution to my Heap problem will help any of you but I thought I would just post it here
just incase yourselves or others come looking for possible solutions.
I created a very simlpe report with 2 groups and not much in the way of complex functions. Whilst reporting against about
100 pages of output everything worked fine, but as soon as we pushed the report up to 500+ pages we got all sorts
of issues.
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
After much hair pulling and trial and error I discovered that the issue came about where I did not declare formula variables as local. I was concatinating various street address details for of the envelope windows.
Stringvar Address;      //    I was using this declaration
Global Stringvar Address;    // Specific Global declaration
Local Stringvar Address;    // Changed to this declaration
After changing to Local, my report now runs with no hassels. And the memory usage whilst exporting the report has gone from maxing out at over 1GB to almost nothing (dont even get it registering)
Am sure someone can come up with a better explanation for this and give reasons but just thougth I would share.
Cheers
Darren

Crystal Report Export to PDF with Group Tree Bookmarks

Dear Forum
I have created a Crystal Report aspx page with an export function of the report to pdf. So far all has been successful, except form one little annoying this. The report does export to a pdf file and it does create bookmarks based on the group tree, BUT when opening the pdf file the bookmarks hiest point which should be the file name is the really long temp file name with .rpt as an extension. I have looked every where to try to get it to write the filename to the bookmark hierarchy without success.
I come you you all for any form of help to solve this issue.
My code is below
CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportOptions export_options = new ExportOptions();
            export_options.ExportFormatType = CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat;
            string ext = ".pdf";
            string reportName = "Filename";
            CrystalDecisions.Shared.PdfFormatOptions pdfOptions = new PdfFormatOptions();
            pdfOptions.CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree = true;
            export_options.ExportFormatOptions = pdfOptions;
            report.ExportToHttpResponse(export_options, Response, true, reportName);
            Response.Clear();
            Response.Buffer= true;
            Response.End();
Below is an image of the output
Any and all help is greatly appreciated

Using the search box in the top right corner and entering the search string 'bookmark pdf crystal', the very 1st KBA is:
1331152 - Report exported to PDF format with bookmarks displays the bookmarks as report name plus a GUID
Please see if this resolves the issue for you.

Issue with Crystal Report export to PDF

Have a report in Crystal Report 2008. The report runs fine, but would like to export it to PDF/EXCEL, but nothing happens when I select the Export type(i.e. PDF,Excel, etc).
Steps to replicate:
1. Run Crystal Report
2. Click on EXPORT button.
3. Select the Export type (PDF).
4. Click on EXPORT - Nothing happens nor does it return any error.
Would someone be able to provide some tips on this issue
Thanks

The problem is that the 3rd party is using some CR SDK. We don't even know what SDK that is. They should be coming here and asking us to help them on your behalf. It is almost impossible for us to help, not knowing how they implemented the SDK, which SDk, etc..

CRYSTAL REPORT EXPORT TO PDF INSERTS lowercasee i after t

I have a crystal report file that is stored as image type in table (SQL Server).When i open the report file in my application (Visual Studio (C#) ), it shows the required one.But When i export to pdf and save it to my local hard drive, and if i open that file, i find that after every lowercase 't' , letter 'i' is appended.I searched through google and found that it migh be a font issue.Even after changing the font, i was not able to resolve the issue.

Crystal Report exported as PDF in BO 4.1 SP03 is creating Margins

Our users began complaining this past weekend (6/29/2014) that our Crystal Reports that are formatted to fit to letter head page size in
PDF format are seeing their columns truncated because Adobe is imposing a 1/4 margin on the top and sides of their reports, causing dollar values to truncate a digit at the front or back of their numbers -- NOT a good thing. We have been up on SP03 for several months, but just started seeing this change recently. We also just recently upgraded to CR2011 SP09 a few weeks ago.
Are there new settings that we can tweak to remove the PDF margins on the server? Anyone have any ideas? We will try any idea, no matter how far-fetched as it may seem.
Thanks,
BO Admin in the Dark, losing numbers on reports.

I solved this problem by setting in the report Design -> Page Setup - [X] No Printer - [X] Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Paper Size

Crystal Reports Export to PDF and Security

I am writing a PC application in VB.Net (using Visual Studio 2005 and which ever Crystal Reports package comes with it) which utilizes Crystal Reports and exports the reports to PDF files. My company creates other PDFs through other programs and is able to set different security options on those PDFs to prevent users from being able to edit them in Adobe Acrobat. I believe this involves setting a password and a few other options. Is there a way to do this when creating a PDF by exporting to PDF a Crystal Report?
Any help or advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Could you provide me a link and/or more informationa bout this Crystal Reports Scheduler? I have another issue I'm trying to take care of and I'm wondering if this could help me. I use the Crystal Reports that comes with Visual Studio 2008 to build my reports and then turn them into PDFs. However these PDFs are not [section 508|http://www.section508.gov/|Section508.gov] compliant. I need to add [tagging|http://www.acrobatusers.com/tutorials/what-are-pdf-tags-and-why-should-i-care|What are PDF tags and why should I care] to the PDFs. Do you know if the component you mentioned can do this? Or of any other product that can?
[This|Export to PDF - Section 508 Accessibility Compliance; is the thread my other question is on.
I'd appreciate any information you could give me.

Unable export crystal report XI to pdf on window server 2003 SP1

I have a class asp function to export crystal report XI to pdf file, it is workable at winXP but when i copy it to window server 2003, it exported the file with zero length (file size is 0kb).
when i try to open the zero length pdf file, it shows the file is already open or in use by another application.
when i run my export function, i can see there is a new file created at the folder "C:\windows\Temp", when i try to open the tmp file, i get the message "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process", i can open the tmp file after i end the process "w3wp.exe network service", the data in the tmp file is exactly what i need to export to the pdf file.
At the window server 2003, I have installed the Crystal Report XI developer edition,
For the web application folder and the pdf export folder, Read, Write and Modify permission has been set for the following accounts:
1. myServer\Administrators
2. myServer\ASPNET
3. myserver\IUSR_myserver
4. myServer\IWAN_myserver
5. Network Service
6. System
7. myServer\Users
I think it is the permission problem, but how to set the right permission at the window server 2003 SP1? please advise. thanks

Hello,
It is a permission issue. When you export Crystal first tries to write the file to the local TEMP folder and then delete it to see if it has read/write permissions. If it fails to delete the file you need to give the TEMP folder on the WEB server permissions for your application. Check Microsofts WEB site on how to set permissions on shared folders for your ASP application.
You may want to search in forums also, this looks familar.
Thank you

Crystal Reports export and print fails with SSL / https but works with http

Windows 2008 Server, 32-bit (IIS7)
ASP.NET 2.0
Ajax 1.0
Crystal Reports version 10.5.3700.0
http: printing works, export works
https: printing not working, only export to MS Excel and MS Word work.
I am able to generate reports using both http and https, and the toolbar icons are all showing. However, I am unable to print or export properly with SSL.
Printing prompts me with a select printer window, and then a window 'Retrieving Page 1' follow by two messages from Crystal Print Control both stating:
A communication error occured. Printing will be stopped.
Exporting generates various errors depending on which export method is being selected (however Excel and Word work over https).
I've found the same problem on this site and other forums, but never a resolution to get exporting and printing to work with SSL. Will someone please provide me assistance or possibly relay what settings they're using if they have Crystal Reports export or printing working over SSL in IIS7? Everything works fine when I change the address from https to http.
Please let me know if I can help by providing further information. We've gone through a great deal of possible solutions with code and I'm currently looking in to IIS settings again.
Thank you.

Thanks Ludek. I got it by searching KB number.
Unfortunately, it didn’t fix my problem even my IE (IE8 and IE 9) has correct setting. I double check my version. PrintControl.CAB is version 10.2.0.1146. we use VS 2005 Crystal report and VB .NET. It works fine on HTTP. But when we use HTTPS (SSL Certificate from go daddy).
1: Crystal report export
            Export to MS Excel, Word: pop us “File download”, then click “Save”. It says “Internet Explorer cannot download ReportView.aspx from my site. Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. the requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try it again later”
            Export to RPt, Rich text format: It says “Internet Explorer cannot download ReportView.aspx from my site. Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. the requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try it again later”
            Export to PDF : nothing happened.
2: Print:
            Pop up dialog to select printer, click “Print” “. Shows windows “Crystal Report Viewer” and pop us error message box. Title is “Crystal Print Control”. Message is “An communication error occurred. Printing will be stopped”. Click “OK” and pop up error message box again.
Please advise.
Thank you very much!

Crystal Reports 8.5 export to PDF problem

Hi Guys,
I have an application developed in VB6 using a crystal reports 8.5 version and I'm having some problems to export to PDF. If I see the data on the Crystal Reports 8.5 designer It will export just fine, but if I try to do the same thing it will export only some information to the pdf file.
This problem is just happening on rpt with Image Object and I can't export the reports where image do not exist. This image is being loaded from an access 97 database. It is a 10 years old program.
Hope to get this issue solved.
Kind Regards,
Manuel Rocha

Hi Dear,
Here I m also facing the similar problem with the crystal report 8.5 :
Crystal Report (8.5) is not working on win7/windows 2008 64 bit system
My application is a vb application and I am using Crystal report 8.5. It is working fine on 32 bit system and 64 bit system of Windows 2003 server. When I run the same application either on win7 64 bit or on 2008 64 bit, report does not open.
I am using vb script to access the database.
Part of the code written in the VB script file is as follows:
Dim objrsRecordSet                 'As RecordSet
    Dim strSQL                         'As String
    '**** Open Database Connection using the parameters passed from the main program
    Set dbConnection = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    dbConnection.ConnectionString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=" & mstrServer & ";uid=" & mstrUserName _
                                    & ";pwd=" & mstrPassword & ";Database=" & mstrDatabase & ";"
    dbConnection.Open
    dbConnection.CommandTimeout = 200
    dbConnection.Properties("Enable Fastload").Value = True
Basically we have two visual basic projects developed in VB 6.0 language: let’s say
1. Diapp (we consume the report.dll in this application, in order to generating the reports)
2. Adacrystalapp (which is used for making the report.dll)
Diapp application generating the reports on windows-XP(32 bit machines) without any problems but when I run the same application on 64 bit machines(win7/Vista…etc) report is not generating.
If I run the both applications (Diapp, Adacrystalapp) in debug mode then reports are generating on 64 bit machines (win7/vista) also without any problems.
Please help me out with this issue, i will appreciate for your response.

Problems with the report export in PDF format

Hi All,
I am new to this forum.
I'm developing a web application that uses Java Reporting Component (JRC) to display crystal reports.
I have three problem:
1) I want, after entering the filters in a jsp, to print a report in PDF format (WORD) without opening it
with Adobe Reader (Microsoft Word). The class of API JRC used for export is ReportExportControl.
2) I want to print multiple reports one after the other to reduce the time (possibly joining two or more reports into a single PDF)
3) I want to insert, in the jsp page filters, the number of pages to print from the same report (without
opening it with Adobe Reader (Microsoft Word))
Can anyone help me? or can give a simple java code to do the same.
Thanks in advance.

Layout Issue after exporting crystal report XI in pdf format

Hi All,
I have developed a crystal report in XI version. I have set my page layout properties in the report to be in landscape orientation and A2 size sheet with No Printer(optimize for screen display) option unchecked. The problem is when I export the report in pdf and open the report in pdf for printing, it takes the printer preference settings that are set to portrait and letter format. If I change my printer prefence settings to landscape, it works fine. But, I do not want to change my printer preference settings and want that the settings that I am giving in crystal report designer must be taken for printing purposes in pdf.
I hope, I was able to put forward the question correctly without any confusion.
Can someone please help me out to find a solution ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Akshay
Always quote the actual version of Crystal Reports you are working with. E.g.; CR IX is not quite enough and the best place to find the actual version is in the Help | About screen of the CR designer.
By CR XI, you could mean CR 11.0.x, or CR 11.5.x. If you are using CR 11.0.x, update to CR 11.5 (also referred to as CR XI R2). See this blog on how to.
