Hello,
Using BIRT 2.3.2 on AIX, certain character sets are not rendered correctly when the report is exported from the Web viewer to .doc format. The characters show correctly when exported to PDF or Excel, and the problem does not happen on Windows.
For example, Korean characters in an export generated on AIX are converted to ???? and displayed in the Times font. However on Windows the characters display correctly and Batang is used.
The default fontsConfig.xml file is in use. Can I solve this by configuring that file? Or do I need to install fonts on the server?
Thanks,
Angela

Is the font file compatible with AIX? Are you using any of the font
mapping in the fonts config file?
