C# .NET - Printing Crystal Report on Client Side

Hi,,


In my case when i am using Crystal Report, In order to print crystal report, I have to export it to pdf first and then print it.
However, I am looking for a solution to print the crystal report directly on Client side (not on server side )..


Thanks in advance..

Include CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine in your C# Source Code.

using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
using CrystalDecisions.Shared;

Copy and paste the following source code and run your C# project

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
using CrystalDecisions.Shared;

namespace WindowsApplication1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
      ReportDocument cryRpt;

      public Form1()
      {
        InitializeComponent();
      }

      private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
        cryRpt = new ReportDocument();
        cryRpt.Load(PUT CRYSTAL REPORT PATH HERE\\CrystalReport1.rpt");
        crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = cryRpt;
        crystalReportViewer1.Refresh();
      }

      private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
        try
        {
          ExportOptions CrExportOptions ;
          DiskFileDestinationOptions CrDiskFileDestinationOptions = new DiskFileDestinationOptions();
          PdfRtfWordFormatOptions CrFormatTypeOptions = new PdfRtfWordFormatOptions();
          CrDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = "c:\\csharp.net-informations.pdf";
          CrExportOptions = cryRpt.ExportOptions;
          {
            CrExportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile;
            CrExportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat;
            CrExportOptions.DestinationOptions = CrDiskFileDestinationOptions;
            CrExportOptions.FormatOptions = CrFormatTypeOptions;
          }
          cryRpt.Export();
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
          MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
        }
      }
    }
}
