UNIX Server Font Installation#

For Windward Reports usage, the MICR font needs to be picked up by the Application Server's Java Engine. This can be accomplished by placing the MICR font file (the TTF file) into the following directories, under the Oracle Application Server directory:
  • jdk\jre\lib\fonts
  • jdk-default\jre\lib\fonts
  • jdk1.6\jre\lib\fonts

For Oracle Reports usage, the MICR font needs to be picked up by the Operating System itself and you should follow your operating system's instructions for that installation.
