I have a Crystal Report template using Visual Studio 2015 and Crystal Report 11.
I am trying to make an editable PDF when I export it. Some fields with data that could be modified when the PDF is exported. Other data will not be able to be changed.
Is it possible to do that, I mean, export an editable PDF using Crystal Report?
Thanks in advance!
You can not export pdf with editable fields, crystal report does not support.

Better to ask in SAP forum that they have any support.
For this you need third party tool - https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28076120/Editable-PDF-from-Crystal-report.html

We are now using a specific font in our SSRS reports.
However, on the PowerBI ReportServer when we extract the report to PDF : the specific font is lost and replaced by Arial.
The font has been imported on the PBIReportServer server.
Its embeddability set to Installable.
Its Type is "True type font file"
When we extract to Word this is fine.
This is really specific to PDF.
Do you know what could be missing ?
Thank you and best regards

We want to create a Cognos report which renders a PDF output with an editable text field. Some of the values in the report will be retrieved from Database and one editable text field should be available which a user can manually edit outside of the report studio using pdf editors.
How do we create this editable text field in cognos?
There isn't any method I'm aware of to do this shy of using some post-processing code external to Cognos to edit the PDF and insert what you're looking for in a particular location.
You would need to ask IBM to add an enhancement to Cognos to get this to happen.
Can any one tell me if it is possible to save data inside an RDLC file, I am using the syncfusion Report Viewer and I want to be able to save the report it generates as a PDF, Execl ect but the problem we have is that we compute the values for the report, they are NOT COMMING FROM A DATABASE, so we tie them to a dataset and then generate the report, the problem I have found is that if I use the WFC service from Syncfusion to save the report and have to switch it back to remote then the data's not render.
Is there a free or payed for component out there that can take the RDLC file, DATA render the report then output a report that I can read in to the report viewer (output prefred RDLC with Data embed), looking at the example syncfusuion provide they have done this.
RDLC does't support to store data inside ReportDefinition.
FOR EXPORT
Due to some limintation platform itself can’t export report directly in Syncfusion ReportViewer in Silverlight , but through the WCF service can export the report .. Please find our online documentation section “How to export RDLC report in Silverlight “

This sample demonstrate export functionality inSyncfusion ReportViewer. Please find the sample from following location
I'm trying to modify a web service which is creating PDF file from Crystal Reports.
The PDF printer is an Amyuni converter.
The Service is attaching Excel documents to the end of the Crystal Reports.
I have to redesign the web service to use instead of Crystal Reports SSRS 2008 Reports and I'm not sure if SSRS reports can attach an excel file.
Any help will be appreciated

Amyuni PDF Converter allows you to concatenate the output of a printing process to an existing PDF file. So if you just want to have a PDF file containing the information from SSRS and the excel file, you could just print your SSRS report and save it in a temporary file. Then you can print your excel file using automation, or use the "save as pdf" function from Excel 2007+ and concatenate to the temporary file mentioned before using Amyuni PDF Converter.
From the documentation:
The Appen and AppendEx methods append or concatenate a second PDF file
to a first one.

I have an application developed with Vb.Net 2003 and using Crystal Reports 11 used to preview many statistical reports.
I always preview any report successfully, but when exporting some of the reports (not all) into PDF using the built-in export functionality in the report viewer control, the application freezes forever.
So, I need to know if there is any report object (textobject, Picture, Chart, line, box, etc..) that might not be able to be exported into PDF, and I think this type of object is only found in some of my reports and that's why I face this problem only with some of the reports and not all of them.
The most common reason this happens is that not all the variables you use in the report are filled. So make sure of that. Otherwise you should get an error on the object you use. Do you get an error on exporting?
