Hi All,

I am trying to use a font in Onestream which seems to be working fine in the cube views and Excel extract, however it it does not work in PDF. 

May I know the reason why it is not consistent? I have updated application properties, hard coded in business rule, and added the font family in the cube view itself. But does not work on PDF which is the most important one.

Any suggestions?

IIRC, the PDF-generating library does not support custom fonts, but you can try installing the font on the server. Cube Views displayed in the client will work if the font is installed on the client, but PDF is its own kingdom.

Yes, I actually saw you post in the same topic and I tried it. It gave me an error that the font cannot be found. It is a bit confusing that it works in cube views and excel but not in PDF. Asked OS to install and will move forward from there. Thanks!
