Error while exporting to PDF - Operation not yet implemented

[#1]

Hi,

We using C# Dot Net 2005 and Crystal Report for Dot Net 2005 and we are trying to export to PDF file. In one of the reports, we are using a Font "Shree-Kan-0850' from Shree Samhita, a SDK to build application in Indian regional languages. But we are getting an error as follows:-

"Error in File C:\Document~1....\{....}-.rpt: Operation not yet implemented.". When we tried in various sites and forums found that it was due to some non-standard fonts. We have checked that if we remove Shree-Kan-0850 font from report, it works fine and once included the error comes. So problem might by from this font. Whether Crystal report is not supporting other than Windows standard fonts or the problem with PDF? Because with same font we can export to DOC, XLS etc. Please guide us how to solve this?

Thanks and regards,

Hi Rajeev,

When Cr exports to DPF format we can not embed licensed fonts into the file. No work around in .NET. Your only option is to not use that font.

If you upgrade to CR XI R2 (11.5) you will have Editable RTF export format. an .NET 2005 uses CR 10.2 runtime and it does not have that option. Export the report to Editable RTF, open it in Word 2007 and download the PDF export plug in. You can then export the file to PDF format using Word.

Thank you

Hello Don Williams,

Thanks for the reply. I can export to PDF file manually from the Crystal Report 2005 using the Font. But same is not happening with the Code. As your suggestion, I will check the other option with CR XI R2. I think we can obtain an eval version of it. But not getting how to resolve this issue. If CR not allows to embed licensed fonts with PDF, I feel this may be its limitation and need to overcome.

If it exports from the viewer then it's likely a problem with accessing the font running under the local system account. Go into the Regional and Language settings and check on the option to allow all users to access all fonts.
