Font issues (upgrading 6i forms to 10g)

571725Jun 23 2009 — edited Jan 4 2010

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had run into font issues with upgrading 6i forms to 10g. I have a font "Wingdings" that we use on a form. On 6i, it worked correctly and runtime displayed the font in Wingdings. However, on 10g, it doesn't display the Wingdings font at all. at runtime, even though it appears to show it at Builder Design time. I can't tell what it is translating it too at runtime. When I look at Form Builder in 10g, it appears to change the font to TrueType Wingdings (Western).

I read somewhere on one of these threads that I needed to modify the Registry.dat file on my forms\java\oracle\forms\registry directory and modify to add the font to the default.fontMap.appFontnames and default.fontMap.javaFontnames but, that doesn't seem to do anything.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks,
Chris
