Extra space(s) before a period in PDF export

There are (just) a few posts here relating to the PDF export issue where extra spaces are inserting before a period in a text box. This occurs when the period is the last character in the text box or when a period is followed by a carriage return. Our reports are developed in CR 2016 and displayed & exported from a DotNet application.

I have issues with Roboto Light (and others) sizes 9, 10, 11, and 14 pt but sizes 8 and 12 pt work fine.

WORKAROUND: If there is at least one space added after the period then the PDF export is fine.

Answers on other posts have not been definitive and mainly revolve around using registry changes, none of which have worked for me. I have tried renaming usp10.dll and adding the following registry keys: UsePrecisePositioningForText, TruncationAdjustment, AdjustTextObjectWidthDynamically, and ForceLargerFonts.

Note: I have not tried TrimTrailingSpace because the issue happens in static text boxes with no database data used at all.

So, does anyone have clear guidance on this?

Thanks, Paul

Don,

Thanks for the response. FYI: We are running Crystal 2016.

How do we find out which version fixes the issue?
