The Viewers SDK allows you to develop and deploy thin-client, customized report viewers that display reports inside Active Server Pages (ASP) and Java Server Pages (JSP). The Viewers SDK also allows you to export reports to a variety of other formats, such as PDF. For example, you can create an application that displays and exports reports directly from a web browser on a client machine, even if the client does not have Crystal Reports installed.

Notice of Deprecation: The Viewers COM SDK is deprecated, and will not be available in future releases of Crystal Reports. It is supported in Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and earlier.
