Problem In ReportFont

2004-03-22 03:59

Hello,

I am creating the jasperreport programmatically

I have defined 3 or 4 reportFonts. But when I use the any of these reportFonts, it is using the normalFont.I mean to say that eventhough the reportFont size if 12 and isBold, still it prints with the normal size and without Bold.

 

Here is the code.

 

These are the reportFonts :

JRDesignReportFont normalFont = new JRDesignReportFont();

normalFont.setName("Arial_Normal");

normalFont.setDefault(false);

normalFont.setFontName("Arial");

normalFont.setSize(8);

normalFont.setPdfFontName("Helvetica");

normalFont.setPdfEncoding("Cp1252");

normalFont.setPdfEmbedded(false);

jasperDesign.addFont(normalFont);

 

JRDesignReportFont boldFont = new JRDesignReportFont();

boldFont.setName("Arial_Bold");

boldFont.setDefault(false);

boldFont.setFontName("Arial");

boldFont.setSize(8);

boldFont.setBold(true);

boldFont.setPdfFontName("Helvetica-Bold");

boldFont.setPdfEncoding("Cp1252");

boldFont.setPdfEmbedded(false);

jasperDesign.addFont(boldFont);

 

JRDesignReportFont bigBoldFont = new JRDesignReportFont();

boldFont.setName("Arial_Big_Bold");

boldFont.setDefault(false);

boldFont.setFontName("Arial");

boldFont.setSize(12);

boldFont.setBold(true);

boldFont.setPdfFontName("Helvetica-Bold");

boldFont.setPdfEncoding("Cp1252");

boldFont.setPdfEmbedded(false);

jasperDesign.addFont(bigBoldFont);

 

JRDesignReportFont italicFont = new JRDesignReportFont();

italicFont.setName("Arial_Big_Normal");

italicFont.setDefault(false);

italicFont.setFontName("Arial");

italicFont.setSize(10);

italicFont.setBold(false);

italicFont.setPdfFontName("Helvetica");

italicFont.setPdfEncoding("Cp1252");

italicFont.setPdfEmbedded(false);

jasperDesign.addFont(italicFont);

 

This is how I use it -

 

JRDesignTextField textField = new JRDesignTextField();

textField.setX(0);

textField.setY(0);

textField.setWidth(500);

textField.setHeight(15);

textField.setTextAlignment(JRTextElement.TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER);

textField.setFont(bigBoldFont);

JRDesignExpression expression = new JRDesignExpression();

expression = new JRDesignExpression();

expression.setValueClass(java.lang.String.class);

expression.setText("$P{printtexthandler}.getValue("report_title_1")");

textField.setExpression(expression);

band.addElement(textField);

 

textField = new JRDesignTextField();

textField.setX(0);

textField.setY(15);

textField.setWidth(500);

textField.setHeight(15);

textField.setTextAlignment(JRTextElement.TEXT_ALIGN_CENTER);

textField.setFont(bigBoldFont);

expression = new JRDesignExpression();

expression = new JRDesignExpression();

expression.setValueClass(java.lang.String.class);

expression.setText("$P{printtexthandler}.getValue("report_title_2")");

textField.setExpression(expression);

band.addElement(textField);

 

Where did I go wrong?Plz help me out.
