how to bold a few text in text feild

[zahron]

Dear friend,

I newer n just explore ireport v3.0.0. For me this is my first time i used ireport. I have a problem to bold a few data in text feild. I have no problem to bold data using Static text.

 

My sample expression is below:

"Dalam harta pusaka "+$F{TBLPPKSIMATI_NAMA_SIMATI}+" Tarikh Mati: "+$F{TBLPPKSIMATI_TARIKH_MATI}+ " simati."

where this $F{TBLPPKSIMATI_NAMA_SIMATI} and $F{TBLPPKSIMATI_TARIKH_MATI}, i extract from database. So i only want to bold this two data.

 

Please help!

Thank

zahron,

 

Refer to the markup example. It ships with iReport here:
C:\Jaspersoft\iReport-Professional-3.6.0\demo\samples\markup

 

I'm not sure if it's automatically included in iReport Community Edition. If not, you can get it as part of the JasperReports project. It works identically in the Pro and Community Editions.

 

You mention being new to iReport. In this case there is no reason to use iReport 3.0.0. You should use iReport 3.6.0.

Hi Matt!

I've got the same problem but I don't have the professional edition... I'm using 3.6.1 but can´t find the document you are talking about... Could you help me?

 

Thanks a lot

Try something like this in your textfield expression.

"Final result is: <style isBold=\"true\" pdfFontName=\"Times-Bold\">"+$F{X}+"</style>"

Simply replace the X with your actual field name. Also check the "Is styled text" property on the "Font" tab.

Hope this helps!
