Fonts and font substitution

The font set available in LiveDoc Documents and rich text fields, and font-substitution for import and round-trip operations, are configurable in the system propertycom.polarion.ui.richText.fonts.

Font substitution works for:

• Import from Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.

• Round-trip forMicrosoft Word and Microsoft Excel.

• Text copied from sources outside Polarion — a Word document, for example — and pasted into a LiveDoc or rich text field.

Font substitution replaces certain fonts with fonts defined in Polarion. Any font not available in Polarion, and for which there is no substitution set, is replaced by Polarion's default font.

Available fonts are separated by semicolon, and font substitution is separated by a comma. Consider the following example.

com.polarion.ui.richText.fonts=Arial, Helvetica; "Courier New", Courier, monospace, HanWangKanTan; Georgia, Garamond; "Times New Roman", Times

• Arial, Courier New, Georgia, and Times New Roman are set as available fonts.

• Helvetica is substituted by Arial

• Courier, monospace, and HanWangKanTan are substituted by Courier New, etc.

The defined fonts must be installed on client computers. Any missing fonts will be substituted by the default font, which is Arial. This is hard-coded into Polarion and cannot be changed by administrators.
