  • have u added the fonts directory to classpath? – codeMan Nov 15 '13 at 14:37
  • if the installation does not contain you font and if u have a ttf file, add the path of the file to CLASSPATH – codeMan Nov 15 '13 at 14:37
  • My web project have the project dependecy, this dependency have the report. Inside the jar of the dependency exist the ttf file, and the report reference the ttf file by the relative path. how I added to the classpath? – victorpacheco3107 Nov 15 '13 at 14:52

    I can resolved my problem!! In iReport, add de ttf file: Tools -> Options -> Fonts -> Install Fonts, after select de file ttf. After de install the font in the iReport, in same windown select the font installed and select the option "Export as extension", this generate a jar file. I added this file jar to the classpath of my app and this work!!!! – victorpacheco3107 Nov 15 '13 at 16:40

create a new directory under "/usr/share/fonts". For example, I created directory:

mkdir /usr/share/fonts/GlobalFonts

to store a collection of fonts used in your project. To make sure that the fonts is accessible to the world, do

chmod 775 -R /usr/share/fonts/GlobalFonts

Then all needs to be done is run fc-cache command on that directory,

e.g

cd /usr/share/fonts
fc-cache GlobalFonts
