I recently upgraded from CR2008-sp4 (v12.4.0.966) to CR2011 (v14.0.4.738) and CR for VS2010 (v13.0.4). I have built a .net application that uses the CR Viewer control to view and export a report to PDF format (mainly for saving/printing), or Word (.doc) when the user needs to edit something.
With the old version of my app (build using VS2010 and CR2008) both PDF and DOC exports are fine. When recompiled using CRforVS2010, the PDF export remains the same but the DOC export has a problem. While the "Line Spacing" property for all text objects and database fields in the report file has the default value "Multiple of 1", the Paragraph Line Spacing for the text objects in the DOC file is set to "Multiple at 0.83" instead of Single (=multiple at 1). Only database fields are exported correctly with Single line spacing. So, the text objects seem "compressed" vertically in the DOC file.
I tried with both the original CR2008 rpt file and the new one that was saved within CR2011 - the result is exactly the same. So the problem must be caused by version 13.0 of the .net CR library. Please inform me if there is a solution or if you are planning a fix in the next Support Pack.
Thank you in advance,
