HI, Joe;
The previous post was for the incorrect verison of Crystal Reports from what you are using.
Have a look at this Note referring to Crystal Reports XI R1:

How to add a barcode font for use in Web Intelligence (WebI) XIR2 and 3x?

Anyone have the steps to add a barcode font to WebI XIR2 and 3x? Not finding a good KBase on it and was also wondering if there any "gotchas" in terms of printing and exporting to .pdf.
Thanks.

Hi Kevin,
Also, if the solution provided in the previous post doesn't helps you then try the following solution.
Following are the steps to apply barcode font (IDAutomationHC39M):
1) In Windows Explorer, browse to the following folder:
-- C:\Windows\Fonts
2) On the File menu click Install New Font then browse to the font you want to install.
3) Edit the properties on the fonts you have just added:
In the "Embedding" tab, you should get a property like "Preview & Print embedding allowed".
But, nothing related to a license limitation regarding the embedding, else, you will not be allowed to use the added fonts in PDF or XLS generation.
4) Once the above points have been done:
-- Copy the .ttf fonts you want to use in the following XIR2 folder:
<BO_INSTALL_DIR>\Business Objects\j2sdk1.4.2_08\jre\lib\fonts
5) Add the following entries into the fontalias.xml file, which is in the following folder:
<BO_INSTALL_DIR>\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\fonts
The template looks like the following one:

<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="ttf" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M (IDAutomationHC39M)">
<FONTATTRIBUTE BOLD="false" ITALIC="false" LOGICAL="IDAutomationHC39M" PHYSICAL="IDAutomationHC39M.ttf"/>
</FONTFAMILY>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="win" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M"/>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="java" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M"/>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="html" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M"/>

6) Add the following entries into the u2018i18n.xmlu2019 file, which is in the following folder:
<BO_INSTALL_DIR>\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\scripts
You have different sections in this i81n.xml file.
-- Under the first section
<I18N>
<FontFinder>

u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026..
</ FontFinder>
< FontFinder2>

u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026..
</ FontFinder2>
-- Under the u2018font_aliasingu2019 section
<font_aliasing>
<T1>
u2026u2026u2026u2026.
</T1>
<TTF>
u2026..

<os type=u201Dallu201D>
<Attributs style=u201D0u201D filename=u201DIDAutomationHC39M.ttfu201D encoding=u201Du201D aliaspsname =u201CIDAutomationHC39Mu201D/>
u2026
</os>
</TTF>
7) Save the both files.
8) Restart the Businessobjects servers or local computer.
9) Login in to infoview and create a new web intelligence report by using the Java Report Panel or Html Report Panel;
10) In the left pane, select the "Cell Format Properties": you will notice that an entry "IDAutomationHC39M" has been added into the font dropdown list.
Just test the above u2018IDAutomationHC39Mu2019 barcode font, at your end and update me with the results.

Barcode Fonts. Ok on Linux, not on Windows

Hi all.
I need to print a PDF (or even HTML) report, which uses a barcode font. I placed the TTF fonts under reports/fonts, and included on the REPORTS_PATH. Installed the fonts on the client machine.
On a Linux server, it works (the report prints correctly). But on a Windows Server, the font is not recognized. Output as PDF or HTML, the results are the same.
What am I missing? The reports version is 11.1.2.
OEL 5.8 and Windows 7 32 bits.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
Is it a new Font installed recently ?
Do you know if the Windows has been rebooted since the font has been installed ?
Regards

Printing a barcode font no longer works properly

I have been using a true type font "3 of 9 barcode" to print mailing labels on an internal website using the following css for some time:
.barcode { font-family: "3 of 9 Barcode", Times, serif; font-size:36px; }
After upgrading to Firefox 5 it stopped working. This currently renders the font correctly on the page but when I try to print the page it uses Wingdings. This is happening on multiple computers and multiple printers. The font is installed on all the computers and I've even tried using @font-face with no success.
[http://www.thomaspainerants.com/firefox_barcode_works.png Screenshot of Firefox properly rendering the barcdoe font.]
[http://www.thomaspainerants.com/firefox_barcode_broken.png What happens when I try to print]. In this case I printed to PDF but the same thing happens when printing to a normal printer. Printing in the latest versions of Chrome & IE9 works properly though not in Safari.
[http://www.thomaspainerants.com/3_OF_9_BARCODE.TTF 3 of 9 Barcode font]

Abandon all hope yee who enter this thread. Abandon hope for mozilla fixing the issue that is. I went with a jQuery based bmp generator. It's pretty easy to implement and has worked well for me.
download: http://code.google.com/p/jquery-barcode/downloads/detail?name=jquery.barcode.0.3.js&can=2&q=
demo : http://jquery-barcode.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/jquery-barcode/demo/demo.html
Implementation:
Put these includes in your header:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.barcode.0.3.js"></script>
Everything that needs to be a barcode should have the same class. I chose "barcode39".
405479
405339
405341
Then run this script at the bottom:
<script>
$('.barcode39') .barcode({code:'code39'});
</script>

Barcode Font not available in PDF after adding to Font Management

Hello CF experts,
I need to use a barcode font in a PDF document. I installed
the font in Font Management, but nothing happens when I attempt to
use it. I've tried to use it both in and out of PDF's, and it
doesn't work either way. It does work in normal HTML code if the
local machine has the font installed, but this isn't very helpful,
as I need it to be served up from the Server with fontembed for PDF
usage.
Here is what the Font Manager shows:
User Defined Fonts
Actions Font Family Font Face Font Type Useable In Path
IDAutomationHC39M IDAutomationHC39M TRUETYPE PDF/FlashPaper
/var/www/html/MM/IDAutomationHC39M_Free.ttf
I've tried using it in tags, CSS Styles, etc,
and nothing works.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hey SafariTECH,
The Server is the source for any fonts used? This hasn't been
my experience at all. Web pages don't embed fonts, but rely on the
clients PC having the requested font face installed.
My problem is that I have a unique need for a Barcode font to
be available to clients without having to run around and install it
locally. In concept I should be able to embed the font in
Flashpaper or a PDF and bypass the need to make the font available
on each client's PC.
Is anyone successfully using the PDF "Font Embed" feature
this way using fonts installed in the Font Manager?
Is there any easy way to tell if the font's installed in Font
Manager are actually working and/or available?
Thanks-

Barcode Fonts in Oracle AS 10g

Hello.
I've an forms application, that initiali has been developed to work on Oracle AS 10g Windows. It has a TTF barcode font, but the reference there has been made with the windows font name. I've tryed to mapped it in uifont.ali in linux, but with no sucess. When running the form (that creates a report), the max i've archived is to make the font name (linux) apear in the document fonts properties, but no barcode apears in the document. The oracle developer reports builder recognizes the font, but when generating the report, no barcode apears...

XSL-FO Barcode Font Mapping

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to use a barcode font (IDAutomationHC39M.ttf) inside a XSL-FO template (Standard Purchase Order Template). I already loaded the font and created the mapping using XML Publisher Administration Configuration, but I still cannot see the font being displayed on the PDF format. I did the reference in the code, e.g.:
<fo:block>
<fo:inline>Order Number: </fo:inline>
<fo:inline font-family="IDAutomationHC39M">404</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
but, it didn't work. I really don't know what I'm doing wrong. I thought it was going to be just reference the font. I would really appreciate any possible help because this is a last minute request of the client and we will be soon going to production.
Thanks,
Hugo

I am having the same problem here. Were you able to create the font mapping? Once I click the apply button, I get an error message.

FREE3OF9 barcode font not displaying in Firefox's new built-in PDF viewer

I have a PHP web app that uses FPDF (v1.53) and the FREE3OF9 barcode font to dynamically generate a PDF which includes a barcode in it. The font is imported into the document using the FPDF AddFont method (http://fpdf.org/en/doc/addfont.htm). In versions of Firefox prior to 19, the PDF opened in a new tab, was displayed by the Adobe Acrobat plugin, and the barcode showed up perfectly fine.
Now that Firefox 19.0 is using its own built-in PDF viewer, the barcode no longer displays at all -- there's just a blank spot where it should be. It continues to display fine in IE and Chrome. How I can get the font to display correctly in the newest version of Firefox?
I understand that I can change the Action for the PDF content type to 'Use Adobe Reader' in the options, but I'd prefer to fix this so that my users don't have to change their browser settings. Or at the very least, it would be nice if they could only change the Action for PDFs originating from my site and not globally.
Thanks.

You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the about:config page to disable the build-in PDF viewer and use the Adobe Reader instead.

Crystal Reports 2008 Barcode font not exported to any format

Hi,
I am creating a report that will use IDAutomationC128XXL barcode font (GS1 standard). I have downloaded and installed this font in my machine. I use the Visual Basic UFLs (IDAutomationFontEncoderUCC128()) to convert my content to barcode. I also have changed the field's font to IDAutomationC128XXL (by right click and field formatting). After this, i am able to see the barcode created in the my report preview. However when i try to export my report to PDF or any other format, the barcode is not coming up. It comes empty when i export to PDF.
Am i missing any step to print barcodes in PDF during export from crystal report?

Hi Sankara,
Licensed fonts are Not exported to PDF.
You should get in touch with IDAutomation's support and ask what are the alternatives.
