<p>Are you using BIRT Open Source or BIRT Designer Pro ?</p>
Chris_Houben
<p>I'm designing my BIRT reports in Eclipse. So no BIRT designer Pro here.</p>

<p>update: When using Font "Courier" in my Birt report, the display in FF seems to be correct.</p><p>But still the error when downloading:</p><p>file is damaged and could not be repaired</p>

<p>mmm, very strange.</p><p> </p><p>Make a try with chrome, but it looks like a FF issue.</p><p>I've made some try with Chrome and IE. Have to DL and check with FF,</p>

<p>Hi,</p><p> </p><p>In Chrome also no problems. You're probly correct that it is a firefox issue.</p><p>Is it possible that firefox uses a different default pdf viewer ?</p><p>The top toolbar for downloading en printing the pdf is different in FF comparing to IE and chrome.</p><p>all 3 browsers have default settings. I also tested on other machines, so it is not only my firefox settings.</p>

<p>I really don't know. I always use an external pdf reade.</p>
