Description
We are using "INet crystal clear report server" to print report on browser. Our report contains Chinese characters. The system run for two years without any problem. Since new version of Firefox force us to update to new version of java, so we update to 1.7. After update, print report Chinese characters become a mess. They overlapped with each other. But English characters don't have problem. We've try with other browser such as google chrome and Internet explorer. The situation persist. So, we guess it is java problem.

The submitter specifically mentions version 9. Going to the URL they supplied it shows that the latest version of the application is version 12. http://www.inetsoftware.de/products/clear-reports to download clear report version 9 Does the issue appear with JDK7 and version 12?
