Label in PDF Report cut off when using font aliasing (9i2)

Hello.
I have a report and one label on the report that is a bit longer than the rest.
This label is displayed correctly in the reports builder, in the HTML report and as PDF when font aliasing is off.
But if the PDF report is generated when font aliasing is used - the label is cut off.
The label is displayed up to the point where it would finish without font-aliasing. (the alias font is a bit broader)
The field spans the whole page in the paper layout, and every char-width value I use has width 1000, so I'd guess that ain't the problem (also since the non-aliased is displayed correctly) (Btw, the string is 84 byte long)
The pdf is generated via a url like:
http://server:8888/reports/rwservlet?report='timereport.rdf'&userid=xx/yy@mydb&destype=CACHE&desformat=PDF&<...paramters...>&filename=/TR_20050703_1300_20050711_0500.pdf
Any ideas?
best regards,
Martin

Hi Scot
Just replied to your email re. conf call.
In the meantime.
1st question.  
    Some of our developers are creating the reports under crystal 2008, while some are 2011.
    Could this be a problem, when they are run by the SDK?
    Should we upgrade all our developers to crystal 2011?
The version of CR a report is created in should not matter at all. I am 100% certain this is not the issue.
2nd question
    When the report is run, to create the pdf... why would it actually embed the font on the pdf?
    if they weren't embedded.. wouldn't it just pull up the proper font, if the user's pc had that font on their
    pc?
    if it does the common fonts aren't embedded, we would just have to worry about the things like
    barcode 3 of 9
I can not answer this as that essentially is the way the product is designed. It may look like a limitation, but there are no work-arounds and I would not consider this to be a bug. Perhaps an enhancement, but a pretty faint hope there. And even if, enhancements take very, very low priority and take long, long time before implementation.
3rd question
    Would the fonts, just need to be installed on the server?   we've seen some indication, that they
    also need to be in a java sub-directory
The fonts must be on the server as that is where the report engine does it's work, then the report is streamed to the user's browser. E.g.; there is no work done on the browser. Also, the process must have rights to access the fonts.
One last point. You mention deployment to Linux. Linux is not supported. Please see: SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Microsoft Visual Studio - Supported Platforms
I suspect this is more an issue with CR not working with the framework for Linux.

  • Beginning of audio cut off when using digital optical out

    Hi all,
    This is my first post here since switching to Mac earlier this year.
    I'm having problems with the first second or so of audio being cut off when commencing playback using the Mac's digital optical out.  This happens with any source of audio in a variety of different applications (e.g. video, iTunes, even system sounds for notifications and the like).   I have used a mini Toslink to Toslink optical cable to connect from the Mac's audio out jack to the receiver of my digital speakers (Logitech Z906).  Once playback has commenced, audio plays fine; it's just the very first second or so which is usually clipped.
    The problem does NOT happen when using the built-in speakers.  I've also noticed that if I unplug the cable from the receiver end (leaving it connected at the Mac end) I can see the red LED light shining the optical signal down the cable, but this goes out exactly 30 seconds after audio stops playing.  If I start another audio playback within 30 seconds, there is no loss of audio at the beginning, but if I wait longer than 30 seconds (i.e. after the LED has gone out) I encounter the problems with the initial audio being clipped.   I therefore suspect that this is an OS issue which is shutting down the digital optical out when audio is not actually playing (presumably to save power or something).  I wouldn't have a problem with this if it actually worked properly when audio playback recommences, but it seems that there is a slight delay whilst the optical out service 'wakes up' again and this is leading to the clipped audio.
    I've done some searching of the internet (and these support communities) for this problem and there seems to be little information about it.  It does seem to affect a few other people though and some have resorted to third party applications or scripts which play silent audio at regular intervals to keep the optical output running permanently (e.g. SoundStay (https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/39833/soundstay) - no longer maintained and the download link is dead).  However, these amount to a kludge at best which treat the symptoms rather than the underlying cause, which I would rather resolve.
    I tried to log a support case with Apple in order to have them call me, only to have the system tell me that my support has already expired, despite having purchased the Mac only 4 months ago.  It seems that my Apple One-Year Limited Warranty is actually only 90 days when it comes to telephone support.  So here I am! 
    Does anyone else have this problem with optical out, and how can I resolve this?  Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hello kcore66,
    Would it be possible for you to upload one of the files in
    question so that I can take a look. In Captivate 1.01 there is an
    intermittent problem where sometimes the audio is either cut off or
    just doesn't play when you publish / preview. To get around this
    simply moving the audio object back and forth along the timeline
    and then positioning it back in it's original position works 9
    times out of 10.
    HTH
    Regards,
    Mark

  • Last Character In Crystal Report cut off when ran via BO web interface

    I created a report in Crystal and uploaded it to the Business Objects Web Interface.
    On my detail row, the last character is getting cut off regardless of the length of the text.  Even short words like "Yes" are losing the last character, and appearing as "Ye", and there is plenty of room available between the right margin.
    The column header extends out further with no issues.
    Does anyone have a solution for this?

    Hi Dean,
    Try with this:
    Go to the following registry sub key:
    HKEY_USERS\[your security profile]\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.2\Crystal Reports\Export\Pdf
    Right-click the sub key and click New > DWORD Value. Name the DWORD value "ForceLargerFonts" and set it to the value of 1.

  • MX432 All-in-one printer: left side of printed subject is being cut off when using 'normal' layout.

    Because 'normal' and 'fit to page' layouts cut off left side of printed material I'm using 'borderless' layout but that doesn't give me the paper size option I need.  Any hints on how to save the left side of paper and how to change paper size in borderless layout.  Any hints in print preview wherein I can print just 'one or two'  of multiple pages without having to return to the set-up page?

    Hi vitaminsg,
    You can set it so that "Fit to Page" printing is the default setting.  To do this, use the following steps:
    1.  Click Start.
    2.  Click Control Panel.
    3.  Click Printers and other Hardware.
    4.  Click Printers and Faxes.
    5.  Right click the PIXMA MX432 and click Printing Preferences.
    6.  Click the Page Setup Tab.
    7.  Select Fit to Page under Page Layout, then press OK.
    This should now be the default setting for all programs.

  • CS5 Text still gets cut off when using filters

    In Flash CS4, I encountered a strange bug where text would get cut off if there were any filters applied to the text box. I was so excited for CS5, because I had heard that bug was fixed. Now I see that it is not.
    I'm using Classic Text in an Actionscript 2.0 file. Here's a screenshot to demonstrate what I mean. The top line is text with no filters applied. The middle line is text inside a movie clip, with filters applied to the movie clip. The bottom line is text with a drop shadow filter applied directly to the text box. Why does it cut off the end of the text???
    Has anyone else experienced this?

    Hi,
    You can set the Cangrow property of the textbox to true which allows to grow your textbox and is default for any text box unless you have changed it.

  • Internet cuts off when using the phone

    The last few days, as soon as the phone rings or as soon as we use it the internet completely cuts off.
    We have recently moved the positioning of the router to pick up a better signal and it has improved (still not the best) but now this problem has occured.
    Help would be appreciated...

    If you have moved it to an extension socket, then that socket may be wired up incorrectly. If you have plugged a phone into the original location of the BT Home hub, have you remembered to insert a microfilter before the phone?

  • Most Iphone photos are cut off when using any app (ie CVS, Shutterfly etc). Is there any way to prevent this?

    From what I've read cut off photos are due to iPhone not being 3:2 ratio, but what can I do to fix this? I take all of my photos on my iPhone and printing them out is ALWAYS a disappointment and I feel like my pictures are useless.

    If you go to Walmart they have a specific app to print your photos from your iPhone.
    Also with other stores they have good systems to print out photos from smart phones and iPhones now a days. And yes by official kiosk I meant any store with a photo printing machine, because if you print at home, size adjustments and all that are very complicated...unless you are like a professional perhaps...

  • Message getting cut off when using carkit

    While using my 5800 and OVI Maps with my Nokia CK-100 carkit nagigation messages get cut of at the start (vey annoying).
    "In the next roundabout..." becomes "e next roundabout".
    "After 200 meters..." becomes "r 200 meters".
    And so on...
    Seems likie the phone starts sending the audio before the carkit has switched on the audio (there is a relay saying "click" :-)
    Is there anything that can be done about this?
    Like a small pause before the voice message is played (1/2 second silence at the start of the message)?
    Also when the message is done playing the radio mute is on for a LONG while before radio switches back on. Why?

  • Characters are cut off when they don't fit in the pdf report output.

    Hi All,
    I understand that Forms 6i and Oracle 9 iAS have been de-supported for years. Meanwhile we do still run a small application in the 9 iAS environment.
    We have forms and reports running on Windows 2000 server, I am able to successfully clone the same 9 iAS from Windows 2000 to a Virtual Server Windows 2003 x32 and all runs fine, the only problem is that the fonts in the pdf reports are larger in the new Windows 2003 environment as compared to the original Windows 2000 and characters are cut off when they don't fit in the pdf report output in 2003 env.
    Any advice is most appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Right, so to advise you we'd need to know the particulars of MagCloud's spec for your project; format, trim size, bleed, etc.
    It's doubtful that anything happened "when uploading for printing," so long as you were uploading a PDF, as opposed to the native InDesign file. Did the PDF look right to you before uploading?

  • Text getting cut off when printing to PDF from Excel

    Hello,
         I've seen a lot related to this subject but nothing that shows a real solution.
         Using Excel 2003-sp3 and Adobe Acrobat v.9 Standard, the right half of the last character in the string gets cut off. It prints from excel fine.
         It's not always the text that is the right-most on the page either. An affected PDF file is attached - note the cut off "S" on the last line (NET ASSETS OF GOVERNMENTAL ACTIVITIES).
         Any assistance is appreciated.

  • Text is being cut off when going from PSD to PDF

    I'm creating a card with the words "Happy Holidays" in the top 1/3rd of the document.  In .psd format it's fine.  When I save it as a .pdf it cuts off the top of the "L" and "D" of Holiday.  I'm using the font Zapfino.  I've tried duplicating the text and rasterizing it to replace the missing text, but then it only shows an outline of the missing text.  I'm stumped.  If you have any insight I'd appreciate hearing it.
    Thank you!

    Two work-arounds:
    • Layer – Type – Convert to Shape should create a Solid Color-Layer with a Vector Mask and that should output as vector data in the pdf.
    • Insert a much larger letter in the text (that can also be a space, so invisible)
    As for the actual problem (Zapfino outputs with a white upper section in a pdf on my station, too): Curious indeed.

  • PDF printing cut off columns

    Post Author: fmonsma
    CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
    If i make a table in webintelligence reports with more than say 10 columns and save it as pdf is cut off the table.I want the first column to display at every page(because this are my titles) and it needs to display all columns at more pages.
    Help!!

    It certainly would help if you would provide us some specifics of the type of printer you are having this problem with, the driver you use with it, and the characteristics of the files that fail in this manner. It would also help if you could advise what OS version you are running on (Windows 7 64-bit) for example.
    My guess is that this is not a PostScript printer and that perhaps the OS-resident printer driver is running out of memory to rasterize complex pages, but that is a stab-in-the-dark.
    Come back with more info and we'll try to help.

  • Titles get cut off when playing after the burn

    The title created in the movie are too wide and get cut off when playing it in a DVD player into a TV. Is there a setting I should use before burning?
    Any help is appreciated.

    You should turn on the TV Safe Area and make sure that everything that you care about is within this area. Anything outside the area is subject to the over-scan of TV sets.
