Fonts from reports in .net not working in AUX?
Post Date: 6/13/24 (Bronze, 2 Posts) Recent Posts
I'm creating a new report and have the user name of the person who made the entry appear with "rage" font. However when run in AUX the font doesn't work. I've tried a few other a fonts as well. Any idea on what to do?
Hi Jimmy,
The font has to be installed on whatever PCs are used to run reports. This includes the QRF PC.
As far as installing a font on a PC, there are many web pages describing the process. For Wine process (Windows running on LInux), it is required to put the font in the proper WIndows directory. Or install it on LInux, Wine will see it. The page you linked to does describe how this can be done.
QAD does not supply fonts. Also, be sure to follow any copyright restrictions if running from a QAD server. Many custom fonts require licensing, particularly for commercial use.
Thanks

Hi Ketaki,
Does this include fonts that are presenet in the .NET versions but not in the AUX version when we are on the cloud ERP? I don't believe it should be specific to the PC. As the .NET report desginer offers many fonts and AUX is browsere based and should simply offer the same fonts, no? We aren't trying to add a new font not offered by QAD, simply trying to make sure when we create things in .NET that they run correctly in AUX.
Thank you for your reply

Hi Jimmy,
Below is the information from our expert -
"WebUI (AUX) only schedules the reports. The QRF server is NetUI, and it produces the report output. NetUI runs on either Linux or WIndows. The set of fonts is different between the operating systems. QRF can be configured to run in either OS in the cloud."
Thanks!
