Cause:

This error may be caused by installing Microsoft Windows update 3102429 (Update that supports Azerbaijani Manat and Georgian Lari currency symbols in Windows). The update is breaking the PDF export in the third-party SAP Crystal Reports component that is used by AYS for writing and printing reports.


Resolution:

At the time of preparing this article, SAP Crystal Reports has no plans to rectify the problem in their report writing component. The possible resolution is to uninstall Microsoft Windows update KB3102429, and if the option is available then mark it as hidden so that it is not accidentally selected again in the future.
