    Strange formatting problem with Crystal Reports

    I am using Crystal Reports v10.0.x on Windows Server 2003 SP2. I have an .rpt file that gets exported into a PDF format using the Crystal Reports Engine thingy.

    new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument().ExportToDisk(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, fullExportFileName);


    I have this report on two boxes. Both the boxes are Windows Server 2003 with SP 2 running the same version of Crystal Reports. Let's call these boxes box 1 and box 2.

    Till now, all reports ran fine on both the boxes. Suddenly, since yesterday, one box 1, all reports have a formatting issue. All reports that have text fields/text boxes with running paragraph text truncate the right most few characters on every line, or at least that is how they display it, if you know what I mean.

    For e.g. the text

    Today is a great day for everything else
    except this problem I am facing with Crystal
    Reports. And then, there's a whole lot of
    work to do after this. I am ****ing sick
    and tired of this job.

    is displayed as:

    The code on both the boxes is the same, and the .rpt files, too, are the same. Please help.

    Re: Strange formatting problem with Crystal Reports

    My first thought is possibly related to printer settings.

    Default printer changed?
    Do they print to the same model printer?
