Hi, welcome to this series of Jasper reports. In this session, we are going to discuss about how we can apply PDF-adwanched properties in Jasper's of Disney Studio. The agenda for this session is we are going to see an example on how we can apply the advanced PDF properties for a missing font in the PDF export. Let's get started. Let us consider the scenario of PDF export that contains the home of font. In the server UI or in the Studio export, we get the home of font with bold text without any issues. But after deploying the report with the server and from there, if we export the report to PDF, we are going to see the output in the left side image. So to overcome that, we are going to use PDF-adwanched properties in the Studio so that we will be seeing the output on the right side image. So let us try to reproduce the issue and let us try to fix by applying the advanced PDF properties. So to start with, we are going to create a grid report and we are going to publish that to the server and then exporting it to the PDF and observing whether we are getting the expected result or not. So to start with, let's create a blank report. Let us create a blank report from file, new, then the Jasper report. Select the blank report from the report templates. Click on next. Now, in the data source wizard from the data adapted drop-down, select the footment database. Let us supply the main query to the report. So the main query is going to be, select star from customer name it 40. Using the fields coming from the customer table, we are going to use detail band and column header band to design a grid like we'll click on next. Then select all the fields for the main data set, click on next. As we are not going to implement groups in the report, we can skip this particular section. So click on next and then click on finish. From the outline view of the report, let us remove the. On one-time bands. So in this particular example, we are not going to have page header column, footer, page footer, summary. Right-click on the selection from the outline and then click on the delete option. Now we have the title band to keep the report title and column header to keep the labels of the fields. And the actual text fields are going to be there in the detail band. Now from the outline view, expand the fields note. Let us take random with few fields for the report. So I am going to take customer ID. Not the last time, but for the first time, then city. And then yearly income and gender. Drag these fields to the detail band. Let's cancel this. Detail band. Now remove the empty space from the bands by W click on the empty space of the band. Now let us add the title to the report. I'm going to use the same name that I used it to save the report, which is nothing but PDF, but sponsored properties missing form in the export. So I'm building it and. So let's pick the format the fields and labels also. Let us board the labels here. So if we closely look at each of the text. We can see that the default font is sensory with 10 pixels. For both labels and the text fields. If we export this, if we deploy this report to the server and if we export this report to the PDF, we should be seeing the same font size and same font name. Although we cannot identify which font it is, but by looking at the export output, we can understand that the similar font and the size is exported to the PDF. So let us publish this report to the server and see the output in server. So I'm going to save this. I'm going to deploy this report to the local Jasper report 2021 project within the reports folder. In the bottom, let us give the report unit click on next. So the concrete data source section, we have two options that are source and query being the data source and out of these three choose the first one, which is the data source from the repository. We have already created a database connection called foot mode and we are going to map that data source to the report. So click on this Alex button and search for the connection with foot. So the project is Jasper reports 2021 and within the resource folder, we have the foot mode connection. So let's make the top connection as the path for the data source from the repository. So click on finish. Now let us view the output of the report in the server. For user and so for user. Here is the report in the bottom. This is the one we deployed just now PDF advanced properties missing font in the export. I have another report deployed. So to avoid the confusion, I am going to I am going to delete the other one. So the report that we published is this one, make the selection on the report and then click on run button or right click on this election click on run in new. So this output just looks fine to me and I can notice that the text of the title and the text the font the font of the title and the point of the labels and the font of the actual data is sent. So if I export this to PDF, I should be able to see the same font and with the same size. So I opened the PDF export. Now we can see the whole font is coming up on the title and we can see the bold font for the labels and non bold dot values for the detailed information. So there is no issue with the Sans Serif with 10 pixels if we export the report to the PDF. Now let us try to change the font to family for all of these text fields. So multi select all the text elements with the static text fields and from the drop down of the font. Let us type in the home. And let us increase the. High top each text will to 11 pixels. So we have a different font selected for the title and the labels and as well to the fields. And the font name is the home here now if you publish this report to the server. And afterwards, if we export it to PDF, we should be able to see the same font family with the same bold application. So I have published the report now I am going to rerun this report. So on the server view, we are able to see that the home of font for the title and to the labels and to the respective detailed data. Now what happens if I export this to the PDF for format. So I am going to open the PDF that is downloaded. In the output, we are not able to see the home of font for the title and to the labels and to the not our values. This is basically a different font. And this is not meeting our expected output, which means the bold is missing for the title and the font family is missing for the title as well to the other data, like labels and to the detailed. So how we are going to fix this. So we are we we are we are having advanced properties for PDF export. And there we are going to configure the actual actual missing. So basically I would say the font family and the font size is missing for this export. So, so fonts are basically 80 TF files. So we need to add those files as resources to the report and we need to map exactly to the respective text field or respective labels here. So in the windows operating system in the windows, we have the fonts folder. So let's go to the windows folder. Not from here. So within the physical drive, let us click on PC and click on save drive and in the windows folder. We can see the fonts. Basically this sponsor, depending on the operating system or we can directly download them from the internet. So for easy purpose. I am going to use the font. So we can search for where the with the ways path stores in the Linux and you can take those files as references. So in the font section. Let's type in the home. So these are the home family of files. I'm going to make a copy of this and I'm going to store this in some drive, say. in the drive. I already copied these files, but I am going to make another copy of the same. So there are two files related to the home, the home and the home of PD and the extension for these files should be dot TTF. So right click on the file and then check the extension. Now we are going to upload these two files to the server and we are going to make a reference of these files in the PDF advanced properties. So first upload these files, resources to the report or say the files in the Jasper server repository. So in the resources, I am going to upload these files. Right click on the resources folder, which is a custom folder we have created earlier. So click on the add resource option and then click on file and then click on font. From the upload a file from your local computer page that I should be found here. So make a selection of the file, the home. And so as we said, we can see the extension. The description is optional always. So click on sub. We can see the uploader font file here, the home on the TTF and the type of this file is file. Similarly, upload the other file. Similarly, select the other font, which is the home of BD, nothing but the bold one. So click on the submit option here. Now we have the two files related to the TTF. Now what we have to do is we have to map these paths in the JRC-semer. So to have this to have the past make a selection of the font file and right click on this and go to the properties. Here we can see the path of the file. So we want to have a non bold font for the text fields here. So make a selection of the text fields from the detail band and in the properties. In the advanced section. We have PDF section here and PDF font and we have to provide it as a report colon, then the path. And PDF embedded should be true here and PDF encoding should be. You need code with horizontal or vertical. I am going to make this identity. It's unique code with horizontal writing. So as quick as we compute these properties, we can see some warnings on the text fields, but that doesn't harm anything. So we can ignore like that. And now this is the home of old. So make the make a note of the path for the bold from the server. So which is this one here. And apply this path for the bold text. So make a selection on the bold labels on the report. Go to the advanced properties and configure the PDF related options. So the PDF font name is flaipo. colon, then the path of the home of old. Now this should be true here, which is PDF embedded equal and PDF encoding should be. Identity H Unicode with horizontal writing. Use of PDF font is deprecated and replaced by the found extension for more information. About the found action, consult the user. This is just a warning. So this doesn't harm any design issues when we export to the PDF or when we export when we run the report in the server. So did you deploy this to the server? And read on the report. So this is the report here. So in the server, there were no issues before applying the custom funds or after applying the custom funds. So the difference is when we export the report into the PDF. So let's export this output to the PDF. And then open the PDF. Now we should be able to see the home upon with bold title and with the bold labels and the normal. Normal size for normal. I mean, without bold for the data data here. So this way we can apply PDF advance to properties for a missing point when we export the report to the PDF format. So this brings us to the end of the session. I hope you're a little clearer on what we saw in this session. So before we wrap up, let's do a quick recap of what we have seen so far. So we consider the scenario of the home upon and we applied the home on custom funds to the labels and the text fields on the report. And this is the left side image indicates. If we're applying that once the PDF properties, the font style is missing along with the. Pawn size, but after applying, we can see the output is something similar to something similar on the writing. So these are the properties where we can set PDF embedded PDF encoding PDF form claim. And that's about it. Thank you for watching this video. Stay tuned for more updates.
