Crystal Report 2016 - Some field in reports are not shown in Chinese Characters

[former_member654959]

Hi,

We are using crystal report 2016. When crystal report is exported in text format then we are not seeing Chinese characters. The formula field that display "Chinese" characters in report is linked with view in database.

It seems that Crystal Report exporting to ASCII format and hence not able to display these characters. Please provide us a mechanism to export text report in unicode format.

Could you let us know how to specify Unicode option in following code so that exported text is in unicode format may be UTF-8.

if (FileExt.ToLower() == ".txt")

{

Options.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.Text;

TextFormatOptions options= ExportOptions.CreateTextFormatOptions();

options.LinesPerPage = LINES_PER_PAGE;

options.CharactersPerInch = CHARS_PER_INCH;

Options.ExportFormatOptions = options;

}

Thank you for visiting SAP Community to get answers to your questions. I recommend that you familiarize yourself with https://community.sap.com/resources/questions-and-answers (if you haven't already), as it provides tips for preparing questions that draw responses from our members. For example, you can outline what steps you took to find answers (and why they weren't helpful), share screenshots of what you've seen/done, and so on. The more details you provide, the more likely it is that members will be able to assist you.

Should you wish, you can revise your question by selecting Actions, then Edit (although once someone answers your question, you'll lose the ability to edit the question). While editing, you can also "insert code" in the question (not just copy as text into the body of the question). You'll see the "insert code" option to the far right of the options (next to the "insert file" icon).
