JasperReport using iReport not support unicode character while export to pdf format - unicode

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.

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.

Converting to unicode font in Crystal Reports

I want to convert Report Headers and Section Headers to Hindi unicode font. At present I am using a Hindi font which is not rendering properly on various browsers. Is there any way to convert the Report Header and other fonts to unicode in Crystal Reports 2005?
If by Crystal Reports 2005 you mean the version of CR that bundles with .NET 2005, then you want to look at the following;
Working with Default and Custom Language Resource Files
Compiling the Custom Resource Files
Web: Configuring Global or Local Custom Resources
You also want make sure you are using SP 1 for CR 10.2:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006007872008E/crvs05sp1.exe
Note that new, stand alone version(s) of CR have better localization support. Looking at CR 2008 (12.x) may be something to consider. An Eval of CR 2008 is available here:

Hope this will help !

Storing Crystal Reports in XML files?

I was talking to somebody a recently who mentioned it was possible to store reports created using Crystal Reports as XML files.
Upon Googling this, I can't find anything suggesting that this is the case (using data stored in XML in a report, yes, but actually storing the report, the part stored by default as a .rpt file, no.
Am I correct in assuming that there was in fact some sort of misunderstanding between us and it in fact not possible to do this?
It is not possible to store the report template in XMLformat. XML is supported as export format of the "rendered" report only.
For what purpose do you need the report template in XML format. There is a Java reporting solution called Crystal-Clear which can read the Crytsal Reports report template and save it as XML report template. The other way round this does not work. After you created a XML file you cannot open the report with Crystal Reports again. But you can work with the report using Crystal-Clear which is coming with a GUI-designer too.
Use the Crystal Reports SDK to convert the RPT file format to XML.
There's a GitHub project that will convert RPT to XML. The intent of the tool is to use for diffs, so I don't know if there is a XML to RPT converter. Crystal Reports certainly can not take the XML file and open it like a .RPT file.
At least in version 8.5 XML-file is one of the supported export destinations just like PDF, Excel or Word. Seems unlikely they'd have removed the support in later versions.
I just tested in Crystal Reports 10.
Open up the report you want to export, click on export in the file menu, and at least in CR 10, XML is at the very bottom.
Next a screen appears, asking for directory and base file name to save to. According to the Window it uses "Crystal Markup Language" XML Format
