JasperReports Evaluation Problems

2002-12-10 15:56

Hi,

I am evaluating JasperReports for the first time.

 

I am trying the FontsReport.

 

It compiles,prints,converts to html and xls fine.

 

But when I convert to pdf I get the following error

 

E1.4.1_01libhtmlconverter.jar;F:J2SE1.4.1_01libtools.jar;F:J2SE1.4.1_01demopluginjfcJava2DJava2Demo.jar;F:J2SE1.4.1_01demojfcJava2DJava2Demo.jar" FontsApp -Tpdf -FC:PotentInstallDirresFontsReport.jrprint

dori.jasper.engine.JRException: Could not load font from location : COMIC.TTF

Note that:

I am using 1.4.1_01 - jre/jdk on Windows 98

All fonts are installed properly under control panel/fonts.

The sample pdf file itself (the generated one in the sample directory) displays fine via adobe acrobat.

So what can it find this particular font ?

Hi,

 

Make sure that the file "COMIC.TTF" is either in

the current directory or in the classpath when you

export to PDF.

 

Or you could modify the XML report design to

indicate its location in the Windows directory.

 

If you run the samples using ANT, the font files

are placed in the demo/fonts directory and are

available in the classpath when you launch the

demo applications.

 

I hope this helps.
