Could not load font from location

2003-03-17 12:39

Hi, there

 

I got exactly same error with jbwiv.

 

Exceptions in iReport 0.0.8, but same document works fine in iReport 0.0.7 with Patch 2.

 

I'm using Pdf embedded Font, but not external font.

 

Any idea?

 

Exporting pdf to file... C:DownloadiReport-0.0.8Test.pdf

Did more research, and found that this is not a iReport bug, but a iText bug.

 

Replace itext-0.9.6.jar that coming with iReport 0.0.8 with itext-0.9.2.jar that coming with iReport 0.0.7, it solved the problem.

 

I will do more research on itext and post result here.

 

Thanks

Well, got more result.

 

Looks like itext has a asian characters patch at: ftp://ftp.lowagie.com/iText/iTextAsian.jar

 

After add this file into iReport-0.0.8/ilbs, even using itext-0.9.6.jar, it works fine to me.

 

Since I'm using CJK, I don't know if this will resolve all this kind of problem. You may try it with other language or character encoding.

 

Why don't we put this kind of jar files into iReport-0.0.8 together, so users don't need to get them from multiple resources?

 

Thanks
