Replace or add a company logo to forms

Adding a logo to your forms provides a personal touch. Follow these guidelines to ensure your forms print as expected.

First, ensure your logo is optimal for Crystal Reports:

  • Format: Crystal Reports supports various image formats, but JPG/JPEG is the recommended format.

  • Dimensions: It is suggested that you resize the image before importing it into Crystal Reports. Windows includes a free Photos app which allows you to resize images and crop unnecessary white space.
  • File size: For performance reasons, the image file size will ideally be under 100kb

Once you have your logo ready, it can be added into your forms using Crystal Reports.

  1. Open the .rpt file (Crystal Reports report file) in Crystal Reports

  2. Use Insert menu to select Picture. Locate your logo file and select Open.
  3. You’ll see the outline of the image next to your mouse within Crystal Reports, left click the mouse to drop it on the report canvas.
  4. Move the image into place on the report.
  5. Finally, it's select File -> Report Options and check the option to Retain Original Image Color Depth. When this option is enabled, the image in the report keeps its full, original color information (e.g., 24-bit "true color" or higher), resulting in better visual quality, smoother color gradients, and more vibrant images.
