Hi,

After you exported the report to PDF, please open the pdf file into adobe reader -> go to document properties and check that the font you used in the cr designer is embedded or not into the document. If it is not embedded, this means, that the font is replaced by default fonts, since it is not present when the report run.

I would suggest to review this document: https://archive.sap.com/documents/docs/DOC-62752 where you can find link to different font types and encoding char sets and some tips to troubleshoot this problem.

Regards,

János

What font are you using? i had this issue on a field before and weirdly enough it only got fixed when i switched the font to Tahoma (Size 8).

I don't understand why it happens but if this a field try put it in a text box and try playing around with fonts.

Does this happen when you print on a regular printer as well? and did you try to drag your arabic field into another text box or is it already a text box?
