I am using iReport 5.6.0 version. I am trying to work with custom font, in my case SolaimanLipi.ttf. It works perfectly in internal view. But when I export to PDF file then it is breaking with the combined letter (for my case: Bengali). I have googled for it and try some but no luck.
My attempts are as follows.
When adding TTF font:
In iReport view:
In exported PDF - broken:
Support for Indic scripts in PDF has been introduced in JasperReports 6.2.0, see the changelog.
You will not be able to benefit from that with iReport 5.6.0. I suggest downloading the latest Jaspersoft Studio release from here.

We have windows application with C#, using vs2008.
In this application we are using Crystal report 10.5, with Arial Font as application font.
While exporting to PDF, its not showing Chinese characters.
It seems that using font "MS UI Gothic", we can see the chinese character in pdf file.
But as per requirement we must use Arial Font.
Please let us know if any one has any solution to this problem.
We resolved issue by following steps:
First export the report in RTF format.
Use office interop to convert RTF to PDF format.
My report in exported PDF version and in CR designer are not the same. The font in the PDF looks smaller than in the designer and I don't know why. Of course, that makes a big problem for me, because I am getting unused "white space". The problem is shown in the image below:
I am using SAP Crystal Reports 2013. Thanks in advance.
I found this, I needed to create a registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Crystal Reports\Export\PDF\ForceLargerFonts
And then to set: ForceLargerFonts to the value dword: 00000001
And it works fine now.
Currently I am using Crystal report 11 to generate reports in PDF format.
The version in which PDF's are generated in 1.3
I would like to upgrade the PDF version to 1.4 (For ISO Document).
Could anyone please advise me what is the way forward on this?
Based on the answers below, it looks like you will need to upgrade the version of Crystal Reports you are using or use some other program to convert the PDF. It appears that Crystal Report does not have a setting for PDF Version.

i'm still new in Jasper reports.i still confuse what the different preview report using excel preview and excel preview(using J ExcelApi) in iReports 2.0.2.Which is more common that people use?. is there any effect when we generate the report?. Can anybody tell me?
Jasperreports supports multiple export formats (xls, pdf, csv, etc...). After developing a report using iReport, you can generate a report in any of those export formats. The best way to view those reports is using an external appliction that you can map. For example, xls report is tied with Excel and pdf reports are tied with Adobe Reader. The new version of iReport supports generation of these reports using the application itself (preview). However, what happens in the background is the same whether you view it with external viewer or internaly using iReport "preview". Personaly, I prefer to use external viewer. The exported reports are cached in the compilation directory.
I am using iRport design tool to create the report in my project. I have created .jrxml and .jasper file, it works fine in the iReport means it supports for the Unicode character and displaying all unicode characters but if I integrated this .jasper file in my java class and exports the report into the pdf format by using itext jar file. Then the program runs well and create the report in pdf format but not showing the unicode characters in the generated report file. So please help me in this case sothat I will able to view unicode characters in the generated report file. Thanks in advance.
Of course the JasperReports has the unicode support.
This articles are about unicode support:
JasperReports - Unicode Sample
JasperReports - Fonts Sample
The main concept is to use the Font Extensions mechanism.
I think, You may need to add uni code font to class path.
