Is it possible to install additional fonts for the Reports 2.5 server to use? The problem is that I've designed some reports using the Arial font but the reports server sitting on our Solaris box does not support Arial, neither does Solaris. So what happens is that the Reports Server substitutes Helvetica for Arial which Acrobat Reader 4.0 will not display so it Acrobat substitutes Arial MT for Helvetica. I believe that these multiple conversions are the source of some Acrobat errors that I'm getting and I thought that if I could simply install additional font on our Reports server that might solve the problem. Does that make sense? Received on Tue Aug 31 1999 - 18:57:53 CEST
