[Mifos-users] Grameen Koota - Loan passbook
Naganand
Hi,
Thanks for the fast response and the help
The Pass book is running good in Firefox but having issues in ie8 as you had mentioned.
I have one more issue which is I have used kannada Unicode font in the passbook for the label contents.
When I am running the report, the output PDF has ??? value for all the kannada texts.
Not able to understand the issue.
Can anybody help.

I suspect this is due to the system not having access to this font. You are running on windows, correct? Have you installed the Kannada font on the server?
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan,
I tried to use the default font “Tunga” which is there in my windows system. But even then, the font is not displaying properly. It is not showing junk but still not proper words as in the reports when I used this font.

I haven't done much around BIRT, but I think this issue is far beyond just installing the fonts on your system.
You might be able to see the report working in your browser or BIRT viewer, but BIRT PDF generator might not be able to process the fonts (or it doesn't even understand what font you are using).
If you look into this path
mifos-gazelle/application/reporting/BirtWebViewer-2_5_0/WEB-INF/platform/plugin/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.fonts_2.5.0.v20090615
in Mifos 1.4 (somewhat similar but different version in Mifos 1.3).
You will find
fontsConfig.xml
fontsConfig_pdf.xml
fontsConfig_win32.xml
You can see how other fonts are mapped in these configuration, so I think mapping your local font should make it work.
You should be able to see the mapping working in logs if you make BIRT_VIEWER_LOG_LEVEL use INFO level logging in
mifos-gazelle/application/reporting/BirtWebViewer-2_5_0/WEB-INF/web.xml
INFO: register fonts in / usr/openwin/lib/locale/iso_8859_2/X11/fonts/TrueType cost: 0ms
2009-2-20 15:47:56 org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.layout.pdf.font.FontMappingManagerFactory registerFontPath 2009-2-20 15:47:56 org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.layout.pdf.font.FontMappingManagerFactory registerFontPath
I guess this should work but I am not sure if BIRT_VIEWER_LOCALE = en_US will have any effect (my guess is it should not).
But if it does you can also use __locale "kn_IN" to override global locale. refer http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/deploy/viewerUsage2.2.php
I can't suggest the best path as I haven't tried these myself, but I think you can try and let us know which configuration works.
As these changes will not be in WAR file and you will be adding them explicitly, there are chances that you may loose them after a reload, so keep them safe at other place for later use.

avoid loosing these configuration at every reload we would have to add
your setting in source code so that you can use it even after reload
after next release. I didn't find any other way to have these
configuration out of box.

Hi
Udai,
I wanted to try out the process you explained below. But I find it too complex to handle and felt. It is better if you can help us with some detailed examples.
Please let us know.

Hi,
Udai Gupta
I looked for some example but I didn't find anything straight forward.
If we look at Mifos 1.3 (BIRT 2.1) fontsConfig file
it seems the file path <path path=""/> could be the reason why BIRT is
not able to find system fonts.
In 1.4 Mifos, I can see BIRT 2.5 fontConfig.xml has all the possible
paths by default (I think you just need your system font path)
I think Mifos 1.3 has BIRT 2.1, So I am little skeptical about locale
support because it seems the work to support locale has been done in
BIRT 2.3 from the commit logs.
Also, I think that looking at BIRT logs (INFO level enabled) can show
whether system fonts are being mapped or not.
Sorry for making it more complex. It will great if works, otherwise
just file an improvement at http://mifosforge.jira.com and look for
other workarounds (like placing image instead of text for static
content).

Here's something else you could try: HTML reports.
* on the reports page, click "Collection Sheet Report"
* show only the report parameter frame (screenshot:
http://yfrog.com/0bonlyframep )
* change the last part of the URL from __format=pdf to
__format=html (screenshot: http://yfrog.com/jnchangeurlp )
This might give us more information about where the problem lies, and
could provide a workaround.

(and any other files this report uses). I believe it should be UTF-8.
On GNU/Linux I usually use the "file" command or the Vim text editor
to query the file encoding. On Windows it seems like opening in
Notepad then choosing File -> Save As... pre-selects the current
encoding for the "Encoding:" field.
