I would like to export multiple pdf files and finally to combine as a single pdf file from the generated crystal reports in asp.net

What I have tried:

Tried with the option crystalReport.ExportToHttpResponse but it is allowing to export only one report output as PDF and where as it is not allowing when multiple crystal reports are being generated at runtime.

Try using ExportToDisk, or ExportToStream.

Which one you choose depends on how you're planning to combine the PDF files.

Thanks for your help. I have already checked the option "ExportToDisk" and it is working well when to export multiple crystal report outputs to pdf files but end user has to open the specific folder in order to check for it, instead if we give an option as a downloaded file on the browser itself then it is much convenient to the end user.
In that context, I have tried with the option "ExportToHttpResponse" but i was unable to do it.

Think of it! You have to export data(!) into pdf. See:
Export DataSet or DataTable to Word Excel PDF and CSV Formats[^]
Exporting a DataTable to PDF[^]
c# - Convert Datatable to PDF - Stack Overflow[^]

You can try to use that solution (for text files), but it needs improvements:
