Regarding Tamil Reports Issues.

[simbu90]

 Hi All,

            I am using iReport Designer 4.0.1 and generating the tamil reports  , while i am generating the reports most of the tamil characters are not supported .

            In report preview i am getting the excat character what i am expecting but while i am saving that as PDF i am not getting the exact character what i expected.

           In my .jrxml file the values are correct but in pdf it's not displaying the exact characters.

           I am using the Arial Unicode.TTF for tamil fonts

           I am working in Linux platform.

          Please help me how to solve the issues.

 

Thanks & Regards,

     Simbu.

SOLUTION FOR TAMIL REPORTS AND PDF IN TAMIL

 

• I used LE-ET-Ramya(etramya.ttf) Tamil Font For Tamil Reports
• copy this font and past in ireports /font PATH and give reload pdf font in ireports tool.
• set pdfFontName="etramya.ttf" and isPdfEmbedded ="true" for user tamil field $F{TamilName}
• we can store data in table and reterive directly from table and display reports in pdf/html/ODF file in tamil is working.
•  
• In servlet to work for particular jrxml field set pdffontname with font store location path
• eg:
• pdfFontName="font/etramya.ttf"
•  
• To download font http://www.elcot.in/tamilfonts_download_list.php
•  
• any query fell free to ask me.

[NOTE : I attached sample(tamilreports.jrxml) file copy  file content and past on your jrxml file run and see output. Its working file.]

Thanks and Regards,
