How to resolve Font " 'MS PGothic' with 'Identity-H' is not recognized " error ?.

[rugvedj]

Hi,

I am using a java application which reads data from a CSV file. The Java application does not uses any beans or framework. It is a core java based application. 

We generate a report template using iReports (4.1.3). The data is then filled into the report template. While doing so I am facing below issue.

Issue Stack Trace: -

I have included below jars in the build path of my application: -

1. jasperreports-fonts-4.5.0.jar

2. jasperreports-4.5.0.jar

3. jasper-compiler-jdt.jar

4. itext-asian-5.1.1.jar

5. itextpdf-5.4.3.jar

6. iTextAsianCmaps.jar

Also I created the font extension and included in my build path. I have also ensured that the properties file "jasperreports_extension.properties" has the required entry of font. However the error still persists.

Font Name: - MS PGothic (TTF)

Please help.
