Exporting invoices and reports to PDF using large fonts

  • Updated

On exporting a report or invoice that is using large fonts to PDF format, it fails to show the large font size and displays the information in a reduced font size. Is there any way to export using large fonts?

This can be accomplished by making a modification to your Windows registry. Make sure you back up your Registry file first. See the Microsoft article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756

Now follow these steps:
  1. From your Windows Start menu, select Run.
  2. Type Regedit and click ‘OK”.
  3. Expand the folders using the ‘+’ sign.
  4. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Business Objects > Suite 12.0 > Crystal Reports.
  5. Right-click the Crystal Reports folder and select New, Key and name it Export.
  6. Right-click the Export folder and select New, Key and name it PDF.
  7. Right-click the PDF and select New, DWord and enter the value 00000001 and name ForceLargerFonts.
  8. Restart your computer. All PDF files from BillQuick will now use the larger font size.
