Hi,

We have developed a report in developer Studio and the output is in the PDF format.
We tested this report which basically an invoice and it works fine.
Now we have a java application which schedule this report on reportcaster to be sent to customers.
We got a feed back from some of our customers that the PDF received does not contain any data.
The customer send back the pdf file to us and we tried to open it with pdf reader then we got the following error:

an unrecognized token 'endstream' was found

This PDF file contains 2 pages and when I zoom in the first one the data appears but the second page does not contain any data.

Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Regards.

Majid.

Well first you need to determine if you have those types of fields in your reports. You can do a Search on CTRAN and look into making the carriage control into a blank.

Set an amper variable (I call mine &crlf Wink) and then set to hexbyt(13) hard concat to hexbyt(10) then use that in a STRREP as the "text to replace" string.

Easy enough, you just have to get your head around it Smiler

This is a known issue per IB:

"I am following up on the case where you were unable to open a PDF file
distributed from ReportCaster to Yahoo mail.

This problem has been previously reported. The problem will be fixed in the
next release, version 7.6.4, which is expected to be available in the 12/2007
timeframe.

If you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you for your
understanding."

Hi,

Now I have the 7.6.4 version in test. And on our production server this is happening from time to time to some customers.
Can you please tell me where this issue is reported to IBI.
How can I simulate this on our production server
and to see if it is really solved with the new version.

Regards.
