Crystal Reports 2008 Barcode font not exported to any format

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am creating a report that will use IDAutomationC128XXL barcode font (GS1 standard). I have downloaded and installed this font in my machine. I use the Visual Basic UFLs (IDAutomationFontEncoderUCC128()) to convert my content to barcode. I also have changed the field's font to IDAutomationC128XXL (by right click and field formatting). After this, i am able to see the barcode created in the my report preview. However when i try to export my report to PDF or any other format, the barcode is not coming up. It comes empty when i export to PDF.

Am i missing any step to print barcodes in PDF during export from crystal report?

I tried all barcode fonts that i had and found IDAutomationC128XS worked or me. Not sure the reason behind this behaviour. Thanks for your help.

Hi Sankara,

Licensed fonts are Not exported to PDF.

You should get in touch with IDAutomation's support and ask what are the alternatives.

Thanks Abhilash, I will have to check with IDAutomation support on why one of their font works and other does not. PDF export worked fine when i use IDAutomationC128XS font type.
