Did not work much with CrystalReports, but from what i remember we had to run asp page from php. It was easy to call crystal reports from asp page, and almost no good info on php integration. That is why we decided to call asp page from php. It was few years ago, maybe things have changed.

Why not bypass Crystal reports and create the PDF yourself using PHP? The portable document format is open and there are many PHP classes already created that you can employ to generate your own PDF from the data.
