Dear Irfan,
Assalam Alaikum..
I am also facing the same issue of arabic font while generating the oracle reports (it is showing as junk(like ????????)).
Even Facing problem on displaying barcode-font as well. It is working fine and displaying the barcode as well as arabic while running through report builder but when running via browser it shows the actual content (e.g. numbers instead of barcode and for arabic junk)
I followed this MDOC (Barcode Font Not Included in Reports PDF Output on Windows (Doc ID 602070.1)) even gone through this discussion note (entry in uifont.ali has no effect)
Treatment " :
Step 1 : Font Aliasing
Step 2 : Font Subsetting
For more details : https://metalink.oracle.com/
Note.350971.1 Troubleshooting Guide for Font Aliasing / Font Subsetting / Font Embedding Issues:
Following is the steps i followed.
1. Fonts installed (3 of 9 Barcode (True Type) and Arial (True Type)
1. Added the fonts location C:\Windows\Fonts in REPORTS_PATH In Registry as well as in Report_Server config file. (File attached fyr)
2. Below is the contents of uifont.ali file
[ Printer ]
/* Mac Fonts */
"Avant Garde" = "Avant Garde"
"New Century Schlbk" = "New Century Schoolbook"
Arial = "arial.ttf"
Arial..italic... = "ariali.ttf"
Arial...Bold.. = "arialbd.ttf"
Arial..italic.Bold.. = "arialbi.ttf"
"Arabic Transparent"="artro.ttf"
[ PDF ]
# This example shows how to rename Arial font to Courier font
# Arial = Courier
# You can Alias specific styles of font as below
# Arial.12..Bold.. = Courier.14....
# "Times New Roman".12..Bold = "Sans Serif"
#
# Support for Far Eastern Languages:
# ----------------------------------
# PDF section can be additionally used to enable Multibyte language support
# built into Reports. To use this feature with Adobe (r) Acrobat (c), you
# need to install the Asian font pack available online at the Adobe web site.
# By specifying the below aliasing, a Japanese report run with Shift-JIS
# characterset is replaced to HeiseiKakuGo-W5-Acro CID font.
# .....SJIS = "HeiseiKakuGo-W5-Acro"
"3 of 9 Barcode"..... = "3 of 9 Barcode"
[ PDF:Embed ]
# This example shows how to embed Type 1 Arial font into the PDF file:
# Arial = "Arial.pfm Arial.pfb"
# You need to specify the .pfm file before the .pfb file.
# The font files must exist in one of the folders specified in REPORTS_PATH.
[ PDF:Subset ]
# This example shows how to subset Arial True Type font into the PDF file
Arial..Italic.Bold.. = "Arialbi.ttf"
#Arial...Bold.. = "Arialbd.ttf"
Arial..Italic... = "Ariali.ttf"
Arial..... = "arial.ttf"
"Arabic Transparent"..Italic.Bold.. = "ARIALBI.TTF".....
"Arabic Transparent"..Italic... = "ARIALI.TTF".....
"Arabic Transparent"...Bold.. = "Arialbd.ttf"
"Arabic Transparent"..... = "artro.ttf"
Tahoma = "TAHOMA.ttf".....ar8mswin1256
#Arial = "Tahoma"
"Tahoma Bold" = "tahomabd.ttf"
Tahoma...Bold.. = "tohamabd.ttf"
Tahoma..... = "tohama.ttf"
"Simplified Arabic"="arial.ttf"
"Simplified Arabic"...Bold.. ="arial.ttf"
"Times New Roman"..Italic.Bold.. = "timesbi.ttf"
"Times New Roman"...Bold.. = "timesbd.ttf"
"Times New Roman"..Italic... = "timesi.ttf"
"Times New Roman"..... = "times.ttf"
"Courier New"..Italic.Bold.. = "courbi.ttf"
"Courier New"...Bold.. = "courbd.ttf"
"Courier New"..Italic... = "couri.ttf"
"Courier New"..... = "cour.ttf"
Courier..... = "cour.ttf"
Courier...Bold.. = "courbd.ttf"
"3 of 9 Barcode"..... = "bar1.TTF"
Bu still no success and On commenting (Arial..... = "arial.ttf") line in uifontali.file report is getting generated but with junk characters and on running the report by un-commenting it give me errot message as ( REP-1924: Cannot locate the font file 'arial.ttf' ).
Your valuable advises/assistance is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Syed
