entry in uifont.ali has no effect [SOLVED]

CharonJul 31 2008 — edited May 11 2010

We ported a report which uses a barcode-font to Reports 10g, and unsurprisingly the barcode is not shown.

In the uifont.ali i added into the section [ PDF:Subset ] the entry
"Code-25-30-Int" = "Code_25c.ttf"

The Filename of our Barcode is "Code_25c.ttf".
"Code-25-30-Int" is shown as the Font-Name in the Reports-Designer (copy-pasted this name out of the JSP which i opened with a text-editor; just to be sure)

The Report runs fine as a PDF, but no barcode is shown. The field which should show the barcode uses Arial instead. The Reports-Server doesn't show any error about not able to find the .ttf.

The Font itself is installed into c:\windows\fonts.
(but of couse i tried putting the font into different directories and adjusting REPORTS_PATH to also point to this directory, had no effect though)

The Application Server runs on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2.
Application Server Version is 10.1.2.3.0

I tried this with a different font too, but no effect there too.

Does anyone have an idea whats happening here?

Regards
Markus
