Greetings Nilardi,
I created a properties file with an entry such as:
wealthReportWeb.plugins.dir=${wealthReportWeb.webContent.dir}/WEB-INF/platform/plugins
wealthReportWeb.fonts.dir=${wealthReportWeb.plugins.dir}/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.fonts_2.2.1.v20070823/fonts/
Inside my build.xml Ant script, I then have the following:
<target name="createBirtConfigProperties">
<propertyfile file="${wealthReportWeb.gensrc.dir}/BirtConfig.properties">
<entry key="verdana" value="${wealthReportWeb.fonts.dir}/verdana.ttf" />
</propertyfile>
</target>
Then inside my code I do the following:
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(configProps.getString("verdana"),
BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
HTH!

Hi
I am unable to create the Font inside my servlet and my page events class.
How to get the actual path of the Font file , can somebody help me ?
the code written is :
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(fontPathName, BaseFont.IDENTITY_H,
BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
Now this font path name must be the actual path of the file in the system. The
file is put inside webapp folder, hence inside the .war file. This is required
inside my page events class also.
Please help me if possible.
Thanks
Niladri.
