Everything looks as it should.</P><P></P><P>I then installed the custom font on my Mac, made sure I added it in both Font Book and the Preview app. <SPAN style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 1.5em;">When I access my QV document with the AJAX client on Safari and view the text object directly, I can still see the custom font.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 1.5em;"><BR /></SPAN></P><P>However, when I access the document's Report (which generates a PDF file) the custom font is replaced with some "normal" font.</P><P></P><P>Just to rule out that it is a Safari issue, I also viewed the document from Chrome running on my QV server. Again, when I viewed the text object directly, it had the custom font, but when I opened the document's Report, the font was "normal" again.</P><P></P><P>I assume that when you invoke the Report feature from the client, that the PDF is generated on the server and delivered to the client.</P><P></P><P>Is there some step I missed in configuring Qlikview Server and/or PDF-XChange? Is it possible Qlikview isn't using the PDF-XChange? How can I check?</P><P></P><P>Thanks for any help.</P><P>-Steve</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 Apr 2014 19:09:30 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Problem-getting-Qlikview-Reports-PDF-to-use-custom-font/m-p/599982#M222047 2014-04-03T19:09:30Z Re: Problem getting Qlikview Reports PDF to use custom font. https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Problem-getting-Qlikview-Reports-PDF-to-use-custom-font/m-p/599983#M222048 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Steve,</P><P></P><P>Were you able to resolve this??</P><P></P><P>Regards,</P><P>Sakir</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 19 Oct 2016 14:34:34 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Problem-getting-Qlikview-Reports-PDF-to-use-custom-font/m-p/599983#M222048 2016-10-19T14:34:34Z
