Basically, I want to use the pdfFontName URL from the parameters. I tried to do it like $P{FONT_PATH} inside the URL. I don't want to use the font extension. <paramter name="FONT_PATH" class="java.lang.String"/> <testElement textAlignment="Right" verticalAlignment="Middle"> <font fontName="Arial Unicode MS" size="8" isBold="false" pdfFontName="/resources/fonts/ARIALUNI.TFF"/> </testElement>
