Graph line styles not WYSIWYG

[AtlantaJeff]

I created a line graph to plot four different pieces of data, and I chose 4 different line styles. When I do a preview of the report in the development environment all the different line styles look ok.

However, when I either print the report or make it deliverable via VisualBasic... all the different line styles are lost, and only solid lines are used.

Any ideas?

I wonder what deliverable via VB means, and what version of Crystal you're using?

The report should be designed using the same printer as you intend to print with as Windows programs are printer dependent and can change.

By "deliverable", I mean I wrap the report in VB and make it a compiled program for users to place on their desktop.

I am using Crystal 9.

When I develop the report, the preview appears correct on my screen, but when I try to print the report (out of the development environment) or make it a deliverable report, the graph does not appear the same way it does in the preview of the development environment. i.e. dotted lines are represented as solid lines, etc.
