Flash printing

Crystal Reports 2008 allows you to print SWF objects in your report without
the need to first export the report to PDF.

The printing option can print SWF objects that have data binding as well as
SWF objects that do not have data binding.

Unicode-supported interface

Crystal Reports 2008 now has a Unicode-capable interface that allows you
to use User Function Libraries (UFLs) for multilingual information processing.

For example, in a multilingual report, you can use the UFLs to access and
translate the multilingual text.

Enhanced publishing interface

The Crystal Reports 2008 Publishing page now allows you to set parameter
values for all recipients from the Personalization page. Other improved
usability functions include selecting destinations, PDF merging, and a better
shared publishing workflow.
