Difference between internal preview and pdf preview

I developed reports in Jaspersoft iRreport Designer 4.0.2

In the Internal Preview, it displays the report in the specified font (calibri). Its design and alignment of elements are correct. But when viewing a PDF, its font alignment is different.

  • Try setting the pdfFontName and isPdfEmbedded .

Sample:

 <font fontName="Arial" pdfEncoding="Identity-H" isPdfEmbedded="true"/>

An embedded PDF flag indicates whether an external TrueType font file in the PDF file should be included.

  • Another way is to use the Font Extensions mechanism. This method is recommended by the supplier.

Example:

You can create a font extension for a Calibri font using iReport. The result will be a jar file.

The configuration file (from the generated jar package) will be:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <fontFamilies> <fontFamily name="Calibri"> <normal><![CDATA[fonts/calibri.ttf]]></normal> <bold><![CDATA[fonts/calibrib.ttf]]></bold> <italic><![CDATA[fonts/calibrii.ttf]]></italic> <boldItalic><![CDATA[fonts/calibriz.ttf]]></boldItalic> <pdfEncoding><![CDATA[Identity-H]]></pdfEncoding> <pdfEmbedded><![CDATA[true]]></pdfEmbedded> <exportFonts> <export key="net.sf.jasperreports.html"><![CDATA[CalibriHtml]]></export> </exportFonts> <locales> <locale><![CDATA[en]]></locale> </locales> </fontFamily> </fontFamilies>

A snippet from the jrxml file to demonstrate the use of the new font extension:

 <staticText> <reportElement x="215" y="26" width="100" height="20"/> <textElement> <font fontName="Calibri"/> </textElement> <text><![CDATA[Static text]]></text> </staticText>
