Making More Fonts Available on UNIX

When a report or exploration is printed to PDF, font substitution occurs for fonts that are unavailable to the transport service that generates the PDF. To make more fonts available to a service that runs on UNIX, use Fontconfig (version 2.8 or later). See www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/fontconfig/.
Note: The font file must be installed on the middle-tier machine that hosts the transport service. If you have a clustered middle tier, the font file must be installed on every middle-tier machine.
Note: ODS destinations such as stored processes register fonts using Fontreg, not Fontconfig.
