Assuming you have managed crystal reports(Published to BO), you can use the below sample

This is for XI 3.1, however would work for BI 4.x.

You can specify the path where you would want the pdf to be exported. The sample will download the file on the machine the code will be run.

HI Prithvi,

There should be some exception if it is not working. Can you share a screenshot. And how do you know that it fails at that line. Do you have any debug statements captured. Check in you application server logs.

Some more information will be of help.
