loge Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Hi, we are using the font extension mechanism in JasperReports. Thus we created a jar with the TTF fonts embedded and some XML descriptor. So far so good.Is it possible to use this JAR also in iReport so that iReport recognizes the new font? Or do i need to place the TTF font in the iReport classpath as documented in the iReport Ultimate Guide?Would be nice if one could work with the font jar.....

loge Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 Ohh. i ve seen that i can just define the new fonts via "add font" and then later, its even possible to generate the font extension jar. So it seems not necessary to add the font to the system fonts as outlines in the ultimate guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loge Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 another entry for all those having the same questions. You definitely can add a externally created Jasper Font Extension JAR to the classpath. After restart the Fonts appear as read only in the fonts GUI. It would be nice if the section of the Ultimate Guide would cover some more details about fonts. Its not of much help IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
