Displaying the Rupee symbol (₹)
Sometimes, the font currently defined in eFORMz does not have the glyph for the Rupee. To display the Rupee, identify a font that has an appearance you require (serif vs sans-serif, proportional vs fixed, etc.) Ensure that the font is defined as a .ttf
font within FontSpecs_User.xml
. This can be done by copying a font with appropriate licensing to the ‘fonts’ folder in eFORMz. Then, define the font in FontSpecs_User.xml
using the following values: Font Name
, PDFBoldFont
, PDFFont
, ViewerFont
, Spacing
, PCLTypeface
and PitchFactor
.
<Font Name="Tahoma" PDFBoldFont="fonts/tahoma.ttf" PDFFont="fonts/tahoma.ttf" ViewerFont="Tahoma" Spacing="Proportional" PCLTypeface="-1" PitchFactor="0.008332330903266"></Font>
Once you have chosen a font, you’ll want to change the Character Set
to UNICODE
and then select the appropriate Font
, as shown below. You’ll create a variable and then set the value to INR \u20b9
. Finally, place the variable.
