Add My own Font Path to Birt [message #778189]

Hello
I would like to add my own Font Path to birt at run time. Birt should use this Folder too. While it is looking for the font to generate the PDF.

Is this possible any ideas ??

Thanks a lot !

Hi Thanks for the quick reply
I read the post
My question is: is it possible to add font path dynamicly because the EngineConfig is initialize once in my application?

I believe that call has to point to a url with a config file similar to
the fontsConfig.xml that BIRT uses.

Hi Jason
You are right this what i figured out yesterday already!
Now my point is how is it possible to make it dynamicaly.
With this solution you can only add at the startup I want to do it while the app is running

Did you try changing the url in the EngineConfig after the app was
running? You could also try changing the system property.
