Actually we've had problems with our fonts too. They seem to want to revert back to Times new roman on us. One of the CF updaters fixed part of that. It still breaks if I do this though:
<p align="center"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I show up Arial</span></p> <span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><p align="center">I show up Times</p></span> Seems CSS doesn't get inherited properly from ancestor elements. ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Denny Valliant [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 06, 2006 11:58 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: cfdocument underline in Linux I didn't see the other replies, but a long shot could be an issue that sometimes effects jasperreports when switching from windows to linux. It has to do with the font metrics of the different JVMs, if I recall right... although I think that only happens with pre-compiled reports... have you tried switching the font just to see if that's it? Sorry I'm not more specific, I kinda doubt this is it, but it's something to try if you haven't yet... :-/ :Denny On 10/6/06, Brad Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks for the suggestions.
