Yup. Well documented, known problem and nothing has been done....
Why should a client system ((EVER!!!!!)) determine something like font? The
text should be limited to ascii as much as possible, and formatting should
be left to the RPT/Crystal Report rendering when the report is run.
Sympathies aside, this should be fixed.
QED, BlackBaud?
