Joe,
Since you say that the Dorchester Script actually works in FusionPro because
you can tell the field in the text box to display that font and it does, then I
believe you're right and it might me the way you are referring to it in your
rule. The easiest way that I know of the get the actual filename that FusionPro
uses for a font is to create a Resource that is a Formatted-Text. Type a sample
line of text and change it to the font you need and click o.k. to go back to
the Resource Editor menu. Then click "view" to look at the actual code that
FusionPro created from your entry in the Text Editor. You will see a command in
that long string that looks something like...
<f name="Your Font Name"><z newsize="12.0"><color name="Black">Sample
The entry that you will see in place of "Your Font Name" will be what FusionPro
actually calls this font and has the tag command <f name=" "> and font size and
color commands as well. You can highlight in this area and copy it out if you
want.
Simply copy this command line into your rule...
If (Field("font") == "1") {
return '<f name="Your Font1 Name">' + Field("Name");
}
else {
return '<f name="Your Font2 Name">' + Field("Name");
}
If there is any more text that is to be displayed in that same text box you may
need to turn that text off and rename it to the current font that you want for
the rest of the text. If that entry is the only thing listed in the text box
then you're fine with the above command alone. Be sure to use different quote
marks within the command. I normally use single quotes for the outermost quotes
since FusionPro will always use double quotes for any commands it types. Also
you will need to check the box "return as tagged text" for this rule as well.

Subject: [fusionpro] Fonts not rendering when in rule format
I am having an issue with nots not rendering correctly when they are
written into a rule. Example: I have a rule that states when field font
= 1 change font to dorchester script. When it renders it shows as
helvetica. If I dont write a rule and just tell the text editor to make
the font dorchester script it works just fine. I need the rule as our
customer has a font list they choose from. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks in advance.
