Font not appearing on PDF Output

Hi,
We are creating a XSL-FO report in Oracle Applications R12 which uses a special font. I installed the font using XML Publisher Administrator and I can see the font when I click on Preview on the template. But when the report is run from Applications, the same font does not appear. I will really apreciate if anyone can provide a solution to me for this.
Thanks
Regards,
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek
When you say XSLFO template do you mean an RTF template or an XSLFO template?
Where are you previewing the template successfully and to what frmat?

Times New Roman Font Not Working In PDF

I have created a template that uses the Times New Roman (bold) font in Word 2007. When I generate the report, it is converting the font (and all other fonts for that matter) to Arial. From reading the documentation, it sounds like Times New Roman is supported as a "Type 1" font, so I'm wondering if it doesn't work because the version Word is using is TrueType. Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong?

I forgot to include details about my environment:
Template Builder is version 10.1.3.3.3
BI Version is (I believe) 10.1.3.2
Also, I'm using the version that is delievered with PeopleSoft PeopleTools 8.48, which (based on what I've read) seems to be much more limited than the standalone version or the one delivered with the EBS.

Hi Junaid,
Please try these steps
In report builder change fonts of text fields to Arial Unicode MS
1. Copy ARIALUNI.TTF from c:\windows\fonts to c:\Oracle\Middleware\as_1\reports\printers
This path sould be set in REPORTS_PATH in registry
eg.
REPORTS_PATH =
C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_1\reports\templates;C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_1\reports\samples\demo;C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_1\reports\printers;C:\WINDOWS\Fonts
2. set NLS_LANG = AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8 in registry

Font not displaying on Reports Output (RHEL 5) for 10g

Hi, I know I've posted a question in the past about a font not displaying on Report Output for my Arial, Arial Narrow, and Courier New fonts. I worked with Oracle Support and found that Metalink Note#261879.1 fixed my problem with those 3 fonts. I ran the scripts and now that part works great.
However, I have one font "ARIALUNI.TTF" that will not work. This is out specific barcode font we use. I've pushed it on Linux from my Windows by pushing it as a binary file to the ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/TTF directory. I even put it in the directory for TTF on Metalink Notoe 261829.1 and let it create the files, but it still doesn't find it when I ran a report that uses this font.
I tried using font subsetting via the uiprint.ali and make a reference but it still doesn't seem to work.
Is there something I'm missing that would cause any of these not to work. I thought maybe some files had to be created under the guicommon/tk/admin/AFM file directory but I'm not sure.
I just want to have my 2 or 3 reports that use this barcode to work. Once I get them, I'm done and all my font issues are resolved. Any help is appreciated.
Chris

They are probably a very old Type 1 font. Try checking the dates on the font files. Your best bet would be to get the OpenType versions of those fonts and install them.

Hi Prabhudas,
I am using the FM 'CONVERT_OTF' to convert the data to pdf.
The FM CLOSE_FORM is creating the IT_OTF internal table and the CONVERT_PDF uses that internal table to populate the         IT_PDF internal table and then using the FM 'SO_OBJECT_SEND' to send the PDF file to mail.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'
       EXPORTING
            format       = 'PDF'
       IMPORTING
            bin_filesize = g_filesize
       TABLES
            otf          = it_otf
            lines        = it_pdf.

Hyperlink with tracking applied does not work in PDF

We use lots of web addresses in our advertising and generally the web addresses automatically convert to hyperlinks when we distill the files and make PDFs. Recently we've had two instances where someone applied tracking or justification to the line of text containing the url to make it spread across the page. When we make our PDF the url is not clickable. Is there anyway around this? We tried actually creating a hyperlink manually in InDesign by using the Hyperlinks panel and entering the address, but that didn't work either.

Peter,
We'll look into that. We already do two separate PDFs for print and web, but
we are distilling both right now. Wouldn't be too much of a problem to
change to exporting the web version I don't think.
I did a test, just curious, is there a way to keep it from putting a black
box around the link on the PDF?
Thanks for your help! We appreciate it!
Beth

Subject: Hyperlink with tracking applied does not work in PDF
Distilled PDF uses Postscript which does not support hyperlinks and
interactivity. To make your hyperlinks in ID you'll need to export and check
the Include Hyperlinks and Include Interactiviity boxes.
Your printer doesn't need hyperlinks because they don't work on a printed
page. The requirements for print and interactive PDF are quite different, and
you may find you need to make two versions.

Intelligent barcode font not working in Data Merge?

Intelligent barcode font not working in Data Merge?
When using Data Merge I only get a pink box where the code is supposed to go. If I cut and paste the same info into the spot the bar works fine. Anybody ever have this problem?

Custom font [OCR A Extended] not working in Crystal Reports 2008

We created a report that prints numbers using a font that makes the numbers look the numbers on the bottom of a check book (i.e. a check font). The font used was OCR A Extended.
On the development machine the font worked well. It printed the numbers with the right font. When we tested the report on another developer's machine that apparently didn't have the OCR A Extended font, the numbers printed using an Arial-looking font - which we didn't like :-(. So we added the font to the machine in the %Windir%\Font directory. Having done this, the report displayed the numbers correctly.
However, when we deployed the report in production on the app server (as Crystal Reports embedded in a VS 2005 application), the fonts would not get applied despite the fact that we installed the font in the %Windir%\Font directory.
What else do we need to do to get the font to work correctly?
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks.

I don't have an answer, but I do have an idea. I am quite sure that the worker process is not seeing the font. E.g.; if you'd use the font in a text box, I'd bet that the font would not show up there either. Probably the best way to figure out what is needed will be to run Process Monitor and see if the logs tell you where the process is looking for the font. You may want to compare working and non working systems (a bit onerous as the logs are large - do ensure you filter for your process to keep the logs as small as possible).
Oh, Process Monitor is here;

Urgent: Custom font style not appearing in PDF output only

Hi,
For a customer, I received customer specific font styles(ttf font files) which I installed on my machine and then copied those files in Oracle\BI Publisher\BI Publisher Desktop\Template Builder for Word\fonts as well as in JRE/lib/fonts. Then I created a template in word and font there appears as custom font.
Now I am getting that font style in all output formats(rtf,ppt,excel) except the PDF output. I am using Oracle BI Publisher desktop alone. Not sure what I missed because of which text font is not changing in PDF version only. I checked the PDF properties and there also custom font is not getting mapped.
Thanks in advance.

Here is the link that describes how to set up the font mapping for PDF output: Look for "Font Mappings (for PDF output)"

Custom fonts not displayed when PDF is generated using 10g Report builder

Hi
I have two fonts , abc.ttf and def.ttf which I have placed under C:\Windows\fonts. One of these displays a logo and the other displays barcode
I have added the environment variable REPORTS_PATH which has value C:\Windows\fonts. I have also added entries for PDF Subset in uifont.ali.
But still when I run the report and out to a PDF file, the fonts are not displayed. They are remapped to some other fonts.
When I check PDF document properties in Adobe reader, under fonts tab it says
abc
   Type:Type1
   Encoding:ANSI
   Actual Font: Adobe Sans MM
   Actual Font Type : Type 1
def
   Type:Type1
   Encoding:ANSI
   Actual Font: Adobe Sans MM
   Actual Font Type : Type 1
uifont.ali entries
[ PDF:Subset ]
# This example shows how to subset Arial True Type font into the PDF file
# Arial = "Arial.ttf"
# The True Type font files must exist in any one of the folders specified in
# REPORTS_PATH.
abc= "abc.ttf"
def="def.ttf"
In Oracle reports builder, I am able see these fonts and select them in my report layout
I am able to see the fonts in Preview/screen output while running RDFs in my reports builder, but PDF output doesnt display these fonts
Is there anything else which is required to do ? Do I need to restart the machine after environment variable is added ?

In one PC were Report Builder is installed, we see "COURIER NEW - WESTERN" font and the RDF created / saved in that font works fine on server. I don't know if this helps!
