Viewing Problems with Bundled Crystal for .net 2003
Hi,
Hope some one can help me, I have an application that works fine on my dev machine (shows reports centered correctly on page, allows reports to be exported etc). However when i deploy to our internal web server the reports are displayed but are all left justified in the window and the page size is 3 times wider. Also when exporting to pdf the pdf file shows a huge page with the report on the top left corner.
Has anyone come accross this before ?
Hello Dave,
This could be related to the printer properties that you have set up in the report. If you created the report to use the default properties of the default printer than it will use the default properties of the default printer on the server you deployed to.
One option would be to check the No Printer box in the Print Setup dialog (right click on the report and choose Designer|Printer Setup)
Another option would be to create the reporting using a specific printer and properties, then installing this printer on the web server.

This is an older technical paper, but most of it should still apply to our Crystal Reports products today.
