I'm developing reports with jasper. I'm using DejaVu default font to limit problems. Anyway I front this issue. In local environment, Windows, I develop templates in a test project using Tomcat WebServer. I use this project only to develop jrxml. The reports are generated with the right font. Then I import my .jasper templates in the real project, deployed on Websphere 8.5, also in local environment, Windows, but when I ran the web application and generate the templates, they miss the font.
In test or production environment, Linux, WebSphere 8.5 all seems ok with the font correctly shown. I did not do anything special on test and production servers.
I can validate the final report with local Tomcat, but I'm corius to understand why local Websphere does not show the font. What I can check?
Silly me... After some days in which I put aside this problem, today while I was setting up an already implented web application in which I have to do some coding on the same local Websphere, when I was setting the shared libraries, I got that I was missing jasperreports-fonts-6.9.0.jar. In Tomcat folders instead the jar was present.
