Windows Update KB3102429 Does not play well with Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008

Not sure if CR XI is affected but have not yet seen it reported for that version.

I can only personally confirm for CR10 and have only seen it reported for CR10 (and CR for VS2008) and CR 9. Issue only manifests with export to PDF (Word and RTF not affected), only if the report contains TNR or Arial (no other fonts found to cause a problem but not every font was tested) and only with the versions of fonts in that particular update (so far). Also we have confirmed W7 and S2008R2 have been affected, again only if that update is installed. XP is probably immune because it's no longer updated. 

If you have installed that update (3102429) and can export a report containing TNR or Arial to PDF from CRXI then I guess CRXI is not affected. 

I can confirm that CR XI drivers are affected. Uninstalling the update or re-installing previously working Arial fonts resolves the issue for now.

This issue is even worse for us - uninstall of KV3102429 on Windows 8.1 doesn't solve issue with reports and PDF files. 

A restart is a must for the changes made by the KB to be reversed

If this doesn't resolve the problem you may need to consider replacing the fonts used in the report files, as described in an earlier comment.

We run Crystal XI primarily on Win7 (32 & 64) desktops.  Users recently started complaining about being unable to export the report files to PDF through the designer.  

I can confirm that uninstalling KB3102429 resolved this problem for our internal users.

We have more than 100 report files; changing the fonts in each would have been prohibitively time-consuming

This issue is even worse for us - uninstall of KV3102429 on Windows 8.1 doesn't solve issue with reports and PDF files.

We have CRXI, and also we have the same problem.
