Font Substitution
Explanation
Font substitution is a feature in IFS Cloud that allows you to replace fonts used in report layouts at runtime.
This is particularly useful when the original font is not available on the client system where the report is being
viewed or printed.
- Define Substitution: In the Report Substitution Fonts configuration, you specify the original font (the one
used in the layout design) and the substitute font that should be used instead.
- Set Language: Choose the language in which the report will be previewed or printed.
- Run Report: When the report is run in the specified language, the substitute font will be used instead
of the original font.
Prerequisites
- A verified user within IFS Cloud, equipped with the necessary permissions (FND_ADMIN) to access a specific
report and its associated data elements (projections).
- The selected report for print should be an operational report(Report Designer Layout/Report Studio –
Designer Layout).
