Crystal Reports Conversion Image Extraction

When running the .Net conversion utility from Cyrstal Reports to Stimulsoft Reports, is there any way to extract embed image content? The utility recognizes if there are images and gets the size and creates an empty StiImage, but the content itself disappears.

Hello.
The format of Crystal Reports files is proprietary. The components of the report are available trough Crystal managed assemblies.
Unfortunately, not all data is available this way. Because of this it's impossible to import images.
Thank you.

So just to clarify, the utility can't access the image data?
How do people get around this then? Do they simply reimport the image manually?

Hello.
Yes, it's impossible to get data from Crystal reports.
And yes, the only way is to add images in Stimulsoft report templates manually.
Thank you.
