How to add a new font into Report Builder and Oracle Forms/Reports Server?

Hi,
I've searched the forum and can't find this being discussed.
My developers run Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2 on their XP laptops.
Their reports run (in production) on Oracle Forms/Reports Server 10.1.2.0.2.
This server runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
They've got a client who wants reports using the "Garamond Western" font.
So....how do I get this font onto the developer's Report Builder laptops, and onto the Oracle Forms/Reports Server?
I've moved various 'Garamond' fonts into C:\WINDOWS\FONTS on both the laptops and the server, but neither seem to recognize it.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks.
This answers 1/2 of my question.
The developer can now use Report Builder on his laptop, with the new fonts.
But when he moves this new Report to the Oracle Application Server/Forms-Reports Server, it fails to use the new fonts.
The Oracle App Server/Forms-Report Server is Version 10.1.2.0.2. It runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
I have installed the exact same fonts on this server, into C:\WINDOWS\Fonts.
I have used REGEDIT to change REPORTS_PATH....and placed C:\WINDOWS\Fonts; as the first value in this field.
I have then stopped and restarted the Forms-Reports Server.

  • How to add a new value into message choice ?

    Dear all,
    I have a messageChoice component in my OAF page and I binding it with my VO (the VO is based on my query SQL in controller, NOT based on EO).
    For example, the query result of VO is as following:
    columnName, columnValue
    a, 1
    b, 2
    c, 3
    And I binding them into my messageChoice component as following:
    myChoice.setPickListViewUsageName("myVO1");
    myChoice.setListDisplayAttribute("columnName");
    myChoice.setListValueAttribute("columnValue");
    myChoice.setPickListCacheEnabled(false);
    Now I want to add a new combination into te messageChoice component, such as 'd, 4'.
    So I write it like this:
    myChoice.addOption("d", "4");
    But it doesn't work. The result of choice is still the same as before.
    So I think maybe I can use myVO1.createRow() method, but when I run my page, it raise an error message: "myVO1 is read only" :(
    Should I have to add a "UNION" in my query SQL of VO for this requirement?
    Any other ideas, please?
    Thanks.
    Kenny

    If you know the values to be added in advance, then its a better option to put them in VO itself with union clause and it has a better performance compared to runtime modification to VO.

  • How to add a new Article to a publication and reinitialize subscription only for the new article

    Hi Freinds,
    SQL2008
    I have a publication and subscription in place and want to add a new article into it. the problem is when I fo it, I need to reinitialize the entire subscription to see the effect.
    is there any way to reinitialize the subscription and publication for only the new article added ?
    Thanks in advance,
    -P
    Patrick Alexander

    For transactional replication all you do is this:
    sp_addarticle
    @publication='PublicationName', @article='ArticleName', @source_object='TableName'
    GO
    sp_refreshsubscriptions 'PublicationName'
    GO
    exec sp_startpublication_snapshot @publication = 'publicationName'

    Figured I'd add to this very old post as opposed to starting a new one. I've followed the steps outlined by Hillary, and the new table simply never shows up at the Subscriber.
    I've also attempted everything through the GUI, but get the message "[0%] A snapshot was not generated because no subscriptions needed initialization." when trying to launch the Snapshot Agent.
    Note this is on 2012, and the initialization was done via backup/ restore (not snapshot).
    Any ideas? Thanks!

  • How exactly to load new fonts into Gimp???

    Hi,
    I've tried everything I can find in teh forums and the wiki to load fonts into Gimp 2.3. They just will not appear in the fonts dialog. It's driving me nuts.
    Can someone please spell out exactly how to do this?
    I've loaded the fonts into /root/.fonts - no go. I've loaded them into gimp's font dir - no go. I've run fontcache - no go.
    I'm at my wits end.
    Jim

    You should put the fonts in your user's ~/.fonts (I hope that you don't run Gimp as root?). Then just run fc-cache -v to update the font cache and restart Gimp.
    If you haven't modified /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, the entry <dir>~/.fonts</dir> should be listed there and thus the users ~/.fonts directory will be searched for fonts.
    Have a look at the Archlinux wiki as well:

  • How to add a new field in the cube and load data

    Hi,
    The requirement is
    We have  ZLOGISTICS cube , the data souce of this filed has REFDCONR-reference dcument number filed . We have to create a new field in cube load data and get this new filed into the report also.
    Please any one can help me with the step by step process of how to do?
    How to get the data into BW and into the report.

    Hi,
    So you need that this new field have data in old records?
    1.- If you are in BI 7.0 and the logic or data for that New field are in the same Dimension, you can use a Remodeling to fill it. I mean if you want if you want to load from a Master Data from other InfoObject in the same Dim.
    2.- If condition "1" is not yours.
    First add the new field, then create a Backup Cube (both cubes with the new field) and make a full update with all information in the original Cube. The new field willl be empty in both cubes.
    Create an UR from BackUp_Cube to Original_Cube with all direct mapping and create a logic in the Start Routine of the UR (modiying the data_package) you can look for the data in the DSO that you often use to load.
    To do that both cubes have to be Datasources ( right click on Cube-> aditional function-> and I think is "Extract Datasource")
    Hope it helps. Regards, Federico

  • Difference between Oracle Application Express and Oracle Forms/Reports

    hi guys,
    i have just use oracle apex to create some report generation tools through the web. know that this is what is known as html db in the past.
    however, i have not really touch oracle forms and reports before, neither have i really seen how they work.. but soemhow i feel oracle report/forms seems to be more.. then this oracle apex.
    it includes integration with web services, java and pl/sql .
    but i still cant really figure out what is the actual general main difference ?
    is it that for oracle forms there can be some programming logic inside , whereas for apex , it is just using what is available from what oracle provides ..
    i am read oracle form white paper, but seriously, i am not a very web guy. it has alot of components that i am not familiar with.
    so i hope you guys can just give me a more general rough idea.
    regards,
    Noob.

    Hi, my .05$
    ... most Forms & Reports users will tend to be old installed base customers using applications developed many years ago in F&R such as insurance company cores and even banking cores. Going from client/server F&R6 to "web" F&R10g is costly as you have to license an application server and most likely need to migrate to recent versions of the DB in case the customer is still on oracle 8 (common occurrence). So many customers opt. to not migrate or to simply invest in new web enabled solutions.
    Using the migration tool f&r installed base will have an easier job of migrating and at a price of whatever DB edition they are using and probably be able to do it with the same people who maintain their f&r systems provided they learn a bit about web technologies.
    what might be interesting to see is performance perception of users on f&r vs. apex...

  • Which font and how to add a chinese font into font book that can be used in CS6 programs

    I am wondering which chinese fonts are useable for Mac OS X. Which to buy and how to use. Should I use Font Pack or other programs to get the font to be used. Any advice is useful. Thank you

    Are you planning on using the Chinese language in Illustrator?  Or, do you just want a Chinese looking font, but using the English language?  I use Font Agent Pro for font management.  It allows you to install the font, view it and print a sample.  You can look for Chinese looking fonts online ( i.e., myfonts.com ).  As far as Chinese fonts themselves, I have no clue.

  • Need information about Oracle Forms & Reports server installation

    Hello Friends,
    First of all I am very new user for oracle forums, So please ignore if I posted wrong place.
    We are using Oracle Database 10g and Oracle forms & Reports server 6i version.
    We just purchased oracle forms & reports (currently known as a Oracle Fusion middleware) license.  As per my knowledge latest version doesn't support Oracle 10g database.
    My question is can somebody give me Oracle Database 10g supported Forms & Reports version?
    We are planning to upgrade.
    Help would be really appreciated.
