How To
Summary
IBM Daeja ViewONE Text annotations have a font drop-down, where you can choose the fonts for the text annotation. By default, the drop-down has predefined Arial font. You can have more fonts in the drop-down by generating the necessary font resource files using the utility and setting the location of those generated files under the annotationCustomFonts property. The utility is a JAR file, which is run by using the command 'java -jar daeja-font-utility.jar' with the directory that contains the utility and the TTF files needed for the font resource generation.
Steps
Generating the font resource files required using daeja-font-utility
Follow the steps to generate the font resource:
- Download the daeja-font-utility.jar and place it in a directory.
- Place the necessary TTF files of the additional fonts that to be displayed in the font drop-down list, under the same directory where daeja-font-utility.jar is present.
Example: C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\CustomFonts is the location where you are placing the daeja-font-utility.jar and TTF files. The following screenshot has 4 TTF files (bold, italic, bold-italic, regular style) for same font 'Georgia'.
- Run the command 'java -jar daeja-font-utility.jar' from the same directory location to start the font resource file generation process.
- The AWT Windows appears and gets closed automatically after the font resource file generation process is completed.
- After the process completion (all AWT windows are closed), you can see the font resource files that are generated in the same directory.
