Search for this KBA - 2165260

It lists a bunch of registry keys you can add to your app server and/or local PC's to stop CRD/SDK from reducing the font.

And Make sure the printer you designed the report on is also the same one being used.

See KBA 2163438 for a sample app to test printing.

Thank you don for your replay .im found the KB article but where im put those reg keys in shared server ?

[former_member11696 · Accepted solution]

The KBA has the path for what ever version of CR and the SDK you have installed.

Dear don

[former_member11696 · Accepted solution]

Then you need to get access or ask your PC Admininstrator to do it for you.

Dear don

its not practical ,do you ever think shared server (godaddy,winhost,1to1) will give access to registry ! and this problem  quite old one , any updated DLL for that problem becoz making changes in registry is not a good solution for every one any help Don?

Only godaddy, winhost, 1to1 would know - right? I don't really see that as an SAP issue(?).

if this is not Crystal report issue im not come here .add registry keys is not the always possible ,don't you understands the my issue here ,did sap has update for that PDF issue ,adding registry keys is not the possible solution ,specially for  web apps

[ido_millet]

Amila, your have a valid point there: SAP could expose those options via code, so applications can set the desired behavior without the need to set registry entries.
Consider posting this to the Idea Place.

Just added this to the Idea Place: Expose Registry Options (e.g. Font Shrinking on Export) via Code : View Idea

If enough people vote in up, SAP may implement it.

Thank you Ido,

I sent an e-mail to our DEV owners to see if we could use the App.config file to do this in. We already have a few keys that we use there now so exposing more should be relatively easy to do for them.

But there are so many so not sure if we can do them all or not but the important ones like exporting would be a good start.

Using the config file is a good idea.  It will be consistent with how the runtime handles parameter dialog options.  Thanks, Don.
