Hi! I am facing a problem when rendering dynamic PDF reports on server (Ubuntu). I have already tested it on local OS (windows and MacOSX) and the PDF was generated perfectly, but when I deploy it on Ubuntu, MyriadPro bold is not appearing but presented no errors on tomcat log. I am working with Calibri and MyriadPro. Calibri is working perfectly on Ubuntu.
I have created two different jars for each font, installed both on my maven repository and included the dependencies on pom.xml. No difference on results. (at first I have created just one jar including both fonts and had the same results).
I am using JasperReports, spring boot with embedded tomcat and deploying a jar file.
Just to clarify, the application works perfectly on my local enviroment (windows and MacOSX) using the jar file or eclipse.
Many Thanks in advance

You probably need to install the fonts system wide in Ubuntu. I am not sure if the font you mention ( MyriadPro ) is avalible in Ubuntu.
You could probably install it from terminal via sudo apt-get or try putting it manually into the System wide fonts in the directory '/usr/share/fonts/'.
You've also got some graphical software selection tools available if you do not like the terminal. Just note that the graphical software tends to put fonts in your local user /.fonts (hidden) directory and that is not available to the services.
Once the font is installed you will need to re-start the services for them to be applied.
it didn't work. When I use the jar file on MacOSX I do not have these fonts installed on my enviroment and the pdf renders good. I do not have installed Calibri on Ubuntu as well and it works.
Anyway I have installed MyriadPro in Ubuntu and it is still not working.
thanks
Solved. The problem was a conflict between the height of text field element and the font. It seems on Ubuntu it is different from windows and MacOSX. Because of this the font did not appear. I have considered a slack on text field height to avoid this problem.
thanks
