Images enlarged

[Jsadas]

I am displaying a circle.bmp in one of the columns in my report. The shape of it is fine when the width of the row is single line.

Due to some other columns in the report which have a wrap option, some rows enlarge in width and it deforms the circle.bmp.

I did try the option of wingdings font (text 'l' is circle) which worked out fine as i can control the font size for a cell, but this font is not supported by adobe acrobat, where the final report is saved.

I like to know if there is any way to solve this problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks & Regards

Solution:

Wingdings/Webdings is the correct option. The problem with Acrobat supporting these fonts can be rectified by installing Acrobat 5.0.

The workaround is instead of saving the file as PDF, you should open the report in BO, select the print option under that you will find Acrobat Distiller. Select it and print, it will pop up the save box. This will save it as PDF. The reason is Distiller is the one that supports these fonts and not Acrobat Reader, if we are saving the report directly in PDF, it will use the Acrobat Reader and will not recognize these fonts.

Hope this will help others facing similar problems.
