1217220 - Columns are aligned differently when using tabs with RTF Text Interpretation in Crystal Reports

Symptom

  • Columns alignment incorrect.
  • Columns are not aligned the same way in Crystal Reports than in MS Word.
  • In Crystal Reports, when reporting off a database field containing Rich Text Format (RTF) Code, the columns do not line up as they do in Microsoft Word and WordPad. The database field has RTF Text Interpretation selected in Crystal Reports and tabs are used within the RTF code to generate columns.
