Crystal report crash with exotic font

[denappel]

Hi,

Yesterday I was facing a weird problem using Crystal Reports in
VS2008. I have to make print label for supermarket products.

They use an exotic lettertype for the price, being MarkerGD.
It appears that if I change the lettertype to a known one as century
gothic, the application doesn't crash.

My code is:

BL.LidlBase.Cry stalReportProdu ctTickets cr = new
Lidl.BL.LidlBas e.CrystalReport ProductTickets( );
cr.SetDataSourc e(dsProducts);

CrystalDecision s.Shared.Export Options o = new
CrystalDecision s.Shared.Export Options();
o.ExportDestina tionType =
CrystalDecision s.Shared.Export DestinationType .DiskFile;
o.ExportFormatT ype =
CrystalDecision s.Shared.Export FormatType.Port ableDocFormat;

cr.ExportToDisk (CrystalDecisio ns.Shared.Expor tFormatType.Por tableDocFormat,
filename);

It crashes on the call to ExportToDisk (see below for exception
detail)

Does anybody have a clue how to get it working with the MarkerGD
lettertype?

I'm sure that it's the font type, cause when I change the font to a
common one, the pdf gets created
without any error.

The error that I got is the following:

Thanks!

Kind regards,
