I am using a Crystal Report on my website to dynamically build a PDF file for download. This is working great. However, now I want to add an image to the report. When I go to Insert - Picture, browse to my image file, and click OK nothing happens, which leads me to believe that I'm adding it incorrectly. How can I do this? Also, does the image need to exist on my web server or is it imbedded in the report?
So you're adding the picture to the report through the Crystal Reports designer?
Possibly the picture is in an unsupported format? Try saving it into another format and add it again, might just work!
As far as I'm aware, the image will be embedded into the report.

I use the devexpress tool for reporting. In my Asp project, reports are opening slowly and I am looking for a solution until I find out why. Is it possible to download the report page in PDF format without opening it?
There is a DevExpress Support Center example demonstrating how to print an XtraReport without showing the preview.
For DevExpress products, the Support Center is usually the best place to look first.
I have been using visual studio 2013 along with crystal report service pack 9.
I also have created a window form to make a report with chart. The data works fine, but the chart or even picture doesn't appear in the report (only text data).
can anyone tell me where my problem is ?
Thanks in advance

Hi
I have to display a birt report where I need to disable the viewer options. For example on top of every report there is run report option where I can change the parameters and see the report. I want to disable that option.
I am displaying this report on click of a link in the browser.
Any Ideas?

Got answer myself!!
Changes needed to be done in ToolbarFragment.jsp.
I have a report that is created using Telerik Reporing 2010.
You have the ability to export to PDF.
One of the cells contains a standard hyperlink that when viewed from the report view works fine
The cell contains this simple link
<a href=”http://site.com”>link</a>
What I would like to be able to do is maintain the hyperlink functionality when the report is rendered to PDF.
Im assuming PDF requires something more than just HTML to render a link ?
Any help is most appreciated
Thanks

Hyperlinks in PDF Telerik Reports are not currently supported. See this forum thread on the Telerik site for more information.
There isn't anything that you can do to fix this. When the PDF report is generated Telerik need to implement a feature that converts your HTML hyperlink into a hotspot annotation in the PDF.
I have a text box which is 7.5" wide and I set Can Grow. Inside the textbox I have placed a TEXT database field. I set the field to use the RTF format. When I export the report to PDF on the developer machine I am able to get the word wrapping where it should be (after the finagling with the right margin). However, when I export the report on the server, I get word wrapping about an inch sooner than on the development machine.
So here is some more information: the PDF of the report is generated by an ASP.NET application on both the development machine (from within VS 2008) and the server; I am using the Crystal Reports VS 2008 runtime.
I have tried a few ideas so far:
I found out that Wordpad does not save the page margins into the RTF document. It always uses the last used settings for the page margins which is 1.25" L-R and 1" T-B.
I tried editing the RTF source and adding the appropiate page margins: \margl720\margr720\margt720\margb720 which sets all margins to 720 twips (0.5").
I tried setting the Wordpad defaults for the page margins to 0.5". This is different for each user though. I have the Application Pool for the ASP.NET application running as a specific user. I tried setting it under that user and no change. Is it possible that the Crystal Report is being generated under a different user? Or that Crystal Reports always uses a specific user for this information?
After the settings on the server had no effect, I set the margins on the development machine back to the default and re-ran the report. This causes the report to have the same problem as on the server. So it has to be something with the Wordpad page margins.
So the question is: how do I get these settings set for the server? Or how can I figure out under which user the Crystal Report is being generated?
It turns out it had to do with the printer drive as Paul suggested. To fix the issue I changed the report to use No Printer. This did not solve the weird wrapping of the RTF by Crystal Reports. To fix that I made the text box that the field was in wider than the page. I had to find how far off the page by trial and error.
