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

SubNotFoundException under Linux not under Windows

Hi,
I got a RMI client server application. The server runs normal on my windows machine with JRE 1.5. But when I want to run it on my linux server with JRE 1.4, I get the following error:
java.rmi.StubNotFoundException: Stub class not found: .....
I used an Ant Build.xml file to create jar (2 --> 1 remote.jar and 1 server.jar) files. In the javac I set the target to 1.1. In rmic I used stubversion and set to 1.1. All my remote objects are in a seperate jar file that is included in my path when I start my server. I start my server with a bat and a sh file.
run.bat (under Windows)
set CPBEFORE=%CLASSPATH%
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;PpdaRemote.jar
start rmiregistry 10001 -J- Djava.rmi.server.hostname=willemc
set CLASSPATH=%CPBEFORE%;
java -jar PpdaServer.jar
run.sh (under Linux)
CPBEFORE=$CLASSPATH
export CLASSPATH="$CLASSPATH:PpdaRemote.jar"
rmiregistry 10001 -J- Djava.rmi.server.hostname=willemc &
export CLASSPATH=$CPBEFORE
java -jar PpdaServer.jar
Can anybody think of a solution for this. I have been working on it for a couple of hours. Upgrading my server to 1.5 is not possible (it's a sgi server).
Thanks,
Willem

Nevermind. Fixed my own problem.

Hi,
We have successfully setup the PDf report with Barcode fonts in Siebel Web Clinet. Now we are trying to setup the report in Siebel Mobile clinet. We did the following tomake it work in mobile clinet.
1) Copied the font file i.e. .ttf file in C:\Windows\fonts folder
2) Copied the font file i.e. .ttf file in C:\JRE Lib fonts folder
3) Updated the XDO.cfg file with details of the font
4) Copied the XDO.CFG file in mobile client XMLP\Templates folder
But the font doe snot show in dedicated or Mobile clinet. It shows the data in regular text in PDF. Please let me know if I have missed any step.
Thanks,

Rafael,
did you try and re-install acrobat reader. If acrobat reader has a plugin then this installs automatically in the browser and will be used. I think - since you say that it worked on other systems - that it is the browser not knowing what to do with the pdf mimetype.

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.

Firefox 3.6.12 not displaying a barcode font - other browsers do

Developing a tool to print a barcode using a barcode font (Interleaved2of5-Regular) and although the font is installed on the PC it wont display in firefox, yet its fine in IE8 and chrome.

Do a clean (re)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* Delete the files and folders in the %temp% folder.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Font differs from Linux and Windows ?

Hi, i just want to ask, are fonts different from windows and linux in applet. I use a standard courier font.
For example, if i make an applet with courier font texts in linux, and make the texts wrap themselves, they will run ok in linux. But if i run the compiled applet in windows, the wrapped text somewhow got truncated.
But if i compile the applet in windows, it will look ok in linux and windows.
I've tried replacing my courier fonts in my /usr/java/jdk/jre/lib/fonts/cour*.ttf with the cour*.ttf from c:\windows\fonts with no effects .. Applets compiled and run ok in linux doesnt work in windows. They must be compiled in windows to run ok in both.
Why is that ?
Does the compilation use the fonts in the jdk lib or the system fonts ?
I'm so confused T_T
Please Help

How do I get Mac OS 10.4.4 and Word X for Mac to see
all the characters in the Word for PC document
formatted in Times New Roman?
There's no way with Office X, which can't do Unicode Greek. You need to upgrade to Office 2004 which is Unicode-savvy and installs in your Mac the same Times New Roman with Greek, Cyrillic, Hebrew, and Arabic which is used by WinXP. An alternative might be AbiWord or NeoOffice/J.

HG282DJ scalable barcode font card in HP Laserjet 400 M401dn not detected

Hello, We have recently bought an HP laserjet 400 M401dn. We quickly realized this printer did not print any barcodes so we purchased an HG282DJ scalable barcode DIMM card. Unfortunately, after installing it in the printer and testing it, it still did not print the barcodes. I have installed it the way it showed me on the HP installation process. (shut down the printer, unplug all cables from the printer, plug the DIMM card, replug cables and turn on the printer). It then suggested me to print a PCL Font List which, unfortunately, did not include the barcodes font list. I then connected directly on the printer's web interface on the Home tab - config page where it says "DIMM 1"...it shows "Empty" is the card faulty or do I need to install an additional software for this to work? I thought this was pretty much Plug-And-Play. Thank you.

Hi, Is your firmware update for HP Laserjet 400 M401dn compatible with M401a, we are still having the same issue regarding barcode printing , and I can't find where to download the firmware update for our HP Laserjet 400 M401a. My printer's Firmware Datecode is 20140521. Any help from you will very much appreciated. Thanks and regards

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.

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...
