BIRT and embedded fonts [message #1481935]

Hi,

i have made an notice. I'm using barcode in some of my reports and generate pdf-documents. The barcode (CODE39) is partiell embedded into pdf. If i check properties --> fonts it looks like expected ABCDEF+CODE39.TTF

So i gave my report to a friend, and he renders it. Font looks like ABCDEF+CODE39_1.TTF on his pdf-document. But on windows we both installed the same font. He is able to see barcode on my pdf, but i'm not able to see barcode on his pdf, cause code39_1 is unknown.

We tried the same with some other fonts. For e.g "Walt Disney". There's no ".TTF" and no "_1". Next time fontname is lowerCase.

So what is BIRT doing? And how can i manipulate this behaviour on naming embedded fonts?

Kind regards

Marina Orth
