JasperReports generated PDF has wrong font

2005-02-10 09:09

Anyone,

 

Using Monospaced font shows correctly in JasperAssistant, but the PDF genterated on the Solaris server with JasperReports 0.5.1 does not use any fixed font. I have tried Courier New with the same result. Changing the font size or style (italic or bold) works, but the actual font remains unchanged.

 

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Ok, Duh...I have answered my own question.

 

The pdfFontName property needed to be set. After doing that all is well. Generating pdf reports called from the Java servlet is working out great for our site development.

 

Thanks, anyway....

The encoding must be "Identity-H" and the font "c:\windows\fonts\msmincho.ttc,0".
