When my scheduled reports run they send out emails with pdf attachments. Is there a way for me to embed the report directly into the body of the email so the end user does not have to open the attachment?

The other option is to create accounts on the CRS and give your Users Viewing rights.

The Viewer sends an EPF file type ( Picture of each Page ) to the user when viewing.

It does require you to purchase Licensing per user though. Contact Sales to discuss options and costs....

AFAIK, Crystal Server can't do that. But there are 3rd-party Crystal Reports schedulers that can.
Ken Hamady maintains a listing of 3rd-party Crystal Reports schedulers here.

Here's a video demo of one way (there are others) of embedding the report inside an email message:
