hi - a quick update . in the JRXML, I've got a text field as below - <textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" pattern="" isBlankWhenNull="true" evaluationTime="Now" hyperlinkType="None" hyperlinkTarget="Self" > <reportElement x="9" y="25" width="523" height="12" key="textField-7"/> <box topBorder="None" topBorderColor="#000000" leftBorder="None" leftBorderColor="#000000" leftPadding="2" rightBorder="None" rightBorderColor="#000000" rightPadding="2" bottomBorder="None" bottomBorderColor="#000000"/> <textElement> <font fontName="Times-Roman" size="10" pdfFontName="C:\WINDOWS\FONTS\ARIALUNI.TTF" pdfEncoding="Identity-H" isPdfEmbedded="true"/> </textElement> <textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String"><![CDATA[$F{V_PERSON_ADDRESSING_NAME}]]></textFieldExpression> </textField> If in the above field definition I change the pdfFontName to "repo:ARIALUNI.TTF" and upload the font onto jasperserver, the java application throws an exception - Caused by: net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRRuntimeException: Could not load the following font : pdfFontName : repo:ARIALUNI.TTF pdfEncoding : Identity-H isPdfEmbedded : true at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRPdfExporter.getFont(JRPdfExporter.java:1691) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRPdfExporter.getChunk(JRPdfExporter.java:1600) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRPdfExporter.getPhrase(JRPdfExporter.java:1583) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRPdfExporter.exportText(JRPdfExporter.java:1908) If the hardcoded path is in the field definition, it would like a charm. The java app I'm talking about it a web application and the user needs to open the pdf's to view the macrons. thanks, p

Hi, I'm facin an issue where Maori Macrons are getting displayed on my reports when I run it in JasperServer(v ) and in iReport(v ). I have a java Interface with code to interact with JasperServer via webservices calls provided by the jasper server. The moethod - public JasperPrint generateReport(String reportUri, Map parameters) throws Exception { ResourceDescriptor resourceDescriptor = new ResourceDescriptor(); resourceDescriptor.setWsType(ResourceDescriptor.TYPE_REPORTUNIT); resourceDescriptor.setUriString(reportUri); JasperPrint generatedJP = null; WSClient wsClient = jasperServer.getWSClient(); if (wsClient != null) { generatedJP = wsClient.runReport(resourceDescriptor, parameters); boolean emptyPages = generatedJP.getPages().isEmpty(); } else { new SystemException("A WSClient instance is not available."); } return generatedJP; } And the returned JasperPrint object is converted into pdf using - JasperExportManager.exportReportToPdfFile(report, pdfFile.getAbsolutePath()); This is where the problem is - the pdf report that is rendered DOES NOT CONTAIN MAORI MACRONS!!! As mentioned earlier, the macrons are visible when I run it from iReport(with connection to server) and from the jasper server itself. Any help in pointing to the right direction to get this working is appreciated. cheers p

Matt, I'm using JasperExportManager to export the report to PDF from my application like below ::: JasperExportManager.exportReportToPdfFile(report, pdfFile.getAbsolutePath()); I would also think that the font may need to be in my calsspath or no? please confirm ! thanks

I tried uploading the font in Jasperserver and referencing it via repo:ARIALUNI.TTF, repo:/ARIALUNI.TTF and all other permutations and combinations to no avail ! not sure what i'm missing this time !! :-(

Thanks Matt. I've uploaded a font called ARIALUNI.TTF into the folder root\resources\fonts\ARIALUNI.TTF I uploaded the report after updating all elements to refer to repo://ARIALUNI.TTF, but it STILL throws the same exception of not being able to load the FONT !!! :-(

Hi, The problem I'm having:: I'm getting a raw stream from a webservice call to JasperServer and trying to export the same to PDF using JasperExportManager.exportFileToPdf(JasperPrint, path)....The issue is that when I use ARIALUNI.TTF as PDF font name and PDFEmbedded is true and PDFEncoding is Identity-H, the export to PDF fails from my java applicationbecause it cannot find the path of the font ARIALUNI.TTF. I was looking into the jasperreports-3.0.1 api and found the JRProperties class which defines the properties files which load the PDF fonts, PDF_FONT_FILES_PREFIX and PDF_FONT_DIRS_PREFIX. I'm unable to locate the /** * Prefix of properties that specify font files for the PDF exporter. */ public static final String PDF_FONT_FILES_PREFIX = PROPERTY_PREFIX + "export.pdf.font."; // this is net.sf.jasperreports.export.pdf.font /** * Prefix of properties that specify font directories for the PDF exporter. */ public static final String PDF_FONT_DIRS_PREFIX = PROPERTY_PREFIX + "export.pdf.fontdir."; // this is net.sf.jasperreports.export.pdf.fontdir My question is ........ where should I add the fonts int the API(I'm using jasperserver.jar) in my applications library). Any help is appreciated. cheers,p

in my application, i use jasperreports2.0.1.jar, JasperReports API, and this JAR needs to have the font in it somewhere for it to export the file to PDF from the raw stream that it recieves from the JasperServer webservice call. I was looking into the API and found the following - JRProperties point to net.sf.jasperreports.export.pdf.font for PDF fonts, but i'm unable to find that path in the jar. I'll try and add these folder manually into the exploded jar and see if it works. cheers

Thanks Matt. Here's what I did in JasperServer(the install directory) - 1. added fonts ARIALUNI.TTF, ARIAL.TTF into the iReport\fonts folder. 2. I have a tomcat base to which I deploy jasperserver.war - I edited the pdfFontBeans.xml to include font references to the fonts placed in the iReport\fonts folder mentioned in 1. I ran the report from teh web interface of JasperServer and used the "PDF Export" button as in the snapshot below: this works now !! thats a step ahead. But my java application that interfaces with JasperServer and calls the same report and reads the PDF back into the client browser fails with an exception::: :( Could not load the following font : pdfFontName : ARIALUNI.TTF pdfEncoding : Identity-H isPdfEmbedded : true To get this to work in JRViewer, I had loaded the fonts ARIALUNI.TTF, arial.ttf in to the "iReportFonts" folder under the JasperServer install folder. This means that the Jasper Server now packages the font into the PDF export. Are there any other settings I need to do for this to work with my application. Since my application is just using the JasperServer API to get JasperPrint pbjects, I thought that it should work on its own if it wokrd on JasperServer. But thats not the case. I'm lost !!! Is there something I'm missing here? thanks, p

I've got it to export into PDF(from the Web Interface of JasperServer) - that is, from the JRViewer. I can run the report in JRViewer and then export to PDF using the "PDF link". Now, I try to run the same report via my application - this throws a similar exception now - Could not load the following font : pdfFontName : ARIALUNI.TTF pdfEncoding : Identity-H isPdfEmbedded : true To get this to work in JRViewer, I had loaded the fonts ARIALUNI.TTF, arial.ttf in to the "iReportFonts" folder under the JasperServer install folder. This means that the Jasper Server now packages the font into the PDF export. Are there any other settings I need to do for this to work with my application. Since my application is just using the JasperServer API to get JasperPrint pbjects, I thought that it should work on its own if it wokrd on JasperServer. But thats not the case. I'm lost !!!

as i've stated in my previous post, I had it uncommented but it did not work and hence I commented it. but in any case, will try again and I had tried with the absolute path as well for the font TTF files in the XML. there is something else missing here....dunno what though.... Project owner???? can you help? p

I'll try to explain our current setup here::: 1) The jasperserver install has a fonts forlder - c:program filesjasperserver-2.0.1ireportfonts and i've added arial.ttf and ARIALUNI.TTF into this folder. 2) I have a Tomcat Base that has the jasperserver.war deployed on it at c:tomcal-base-nzls-jasperwebapps 3) The WEB-INF in c:tomcal-base-nzls-jasperwebappsjasperserver has pdffontbeans.xml, wherein, i've added entries for the fonts as below:::: i've commented out the fonts as I was not sure if this was needed here. 4) when I try to run the report in JRViewer, the Maori Macrons displays - see anapshot attached. 5) when i export this report to PDF by clicking the PDF icon in the snapshot, or through the application that reads the pdf, it throws the following error.

hi, i've attached my jrxml. also, when you talk about putting the TTF into the JAR, are you talking about the classpath in iReport? or something else? cheers !

thanks mate!! appreciate your help. I looked in the jasperserver install folder, included the ARIALUNI.TTF in the fonts folder and restarted jasperserver. still the same exception :((
