....
JasperPrint jpr = JasperManager.fillReport(
JasperManager.compileReport(
"E:\\Work\\orderReport1.xml"
),
(HashMap)reportParam.clone(), ds);

dori.jasper.view.JasperViewer v = new JasperViewer(
jpr, false );
v.show();
....

I must say JasperReport is wonderful software!!! But
when print the document, the printer is very slow.
Through checking printer dialog, the document size is
about 200k, pause after per 8k and then go on, looks
like looking for something else to complete print. But
other document print faster, like Word document as the
same size, why?

My printer is HP Laserjet 6L Pro.

When I report to pdf file, like :
JasperManager.printReportToPdfFile (jpr,
"c:\\test.pdf");

error occur:
ExceptionConverter: java.io.IOException: The document
has no pages.

but c:\test.pdf is produced well! Why?

BTW, how can i change the name of the printing
document in printer dialog, the default name is "java
printing".

Hi.
I'd like to ask question. I'm using a barcode font and I want to use
relative path by passing the value through a class which compile the xml
file. Is there a way to do this? Now, I use absolute path, but it's not
convenient.
I tried to use $P{}, but it seems not functioning if I put it in a tag.
Please help.
thanx.

<font fontName="D:/project/webapps/bimbel/WEB-INF/lib/EAN-13.TTF"
pdfFontName="D:/project/webapps/bimbel/WEB-INF/lib/EAN-13.TTF" size="36"
isBold="false" isItalic="false" isUnderline="false" isPdfEmbedded ="true"
pdfEncoding ="Cp1252" isStrikeThrough="false" />

Hi,

You can place your TTF files in the classpath and reference them as
resources
using the "pdfFontName" attribute.
This attribute can also contain the resource location within the classpath
instead
of the absolute path to the font file.

The font should be installed on your system , beacuse the "fontName"
attribute
does not expect a filename, but rather a font family name. For example on
Windows,
installing a font is equivalent to copying the TTF file into the
Windows/fonts directory.
Then you use the font name in the "fontName" attribute, not the filename.

This is how the provied samples work. The TTF files are loaded from
classpath.

I hope this helps.

When I compile the xml, I use this :

String appPath = TurbineResources.getString("webappRoot");
StringBuffer sb = new
StringBuffer().append(appPath).append("WEB-INF/lib/jasperreports.jar");
sb.append(":"+appPath).append("WEB-INF/classes");
-> (additional) sb.append(":"+appPath).append("WEB-INF/lib/EAN-13.TTF");
System.setProperty("jasper.reports.compile.class.path",sb.toString());

When I look into your fonts sample in the build.xml file, the fonts are
loaded when it call export to pdf. What should I put in the
System.setProperty since i didn't use build.xml file.

thanx.

Hi,

The TTF files have nothing to do with the report compilation process.
So putting them in the "jasper.reports.compile.class.path" system property
has no effect.

They are only used by the PDF exporter and they should be available in the
classpath
when exporting to PDF.

If I were you, I would put the TTF file in a directory called:
WEB-INF/classes/fonts

and reference it like this:

pdfFontName="fonts/EAN-13.TTF"

knowing that the WEB-INF/classes directory is always part of the web
application classpath.

I hope this helps.
