Hi,

this problem has been bugging me for almost 2 weeks. I'm using ASP to develop an application that retrieves chinese characters from SQL Server 7.0 and display in Crystal Reports 9 format on a web page.

Displaying of chinese chars on CR9 and the web page isn't a problem, but when I export the report to PDF format to print, the chinese chars appears as numbers.

Note that in SQL Server, the chinese chars are stored in numbers as well, but the browser is intelligent enough to convert it properly.

I have already downloaded both Asian Font Packs and updated my reader. However, attempts to install "Adobe Reader 7.0.8 update - multiple languages" gives the following error:

"The upgrade patch cannot ne installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."

I'm not sure if this has to do with the problem I have.

Can anyone help here? Thanks alot.
