I have designed a JRXML on Jaspersoft Studio 5.1.0, able to generate a CSV format report on Eclipse and Windows machine. When i export the java code onto Unix server, getting below error.

Java Version of Unix Server : "1.7.0.08"

Answer 1

I think pdfFontName="Helvetica-Bold" is causing the problem. There are two things to consider here.

1. When you are exporting your report and want Helvetica-Bold to appear in it, then you'll to create font-extension for it, unless your JVM already as Helvetica-Bold with it.
2. You would have to create custom styles in the jrxml file and use fonts there and apply style to elements in case of using font extension.

Hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Just seeing your exception stack trace... it says

Caused by: java.io.IOException: Problem reading font data.

Probably in your JRXML template you might be using some font which is not available in your application

Answer 3

I have been trying to figure out a similar problem since yesterday, and finally found an answer that fixed the problem for me (please see the link below) . This was only happening in our QA environment, but not on my local desktop machine.

Shortly, the error message is pretty misleading and the actual problem is java.awt.Front not being able to write the Java-temp-directory (java.io.tmpdir) as described in the original answer below. All I had to do is create a Tomcat temp directory manually (which was never created before in QA environment). After that, it just started working fine.

Original answer that I found
