Since the response to this question was resounding silence, I am guessing that the answer is “No”?..
I’ve been asked the same question by a client, and I have no idea if this is possible, or what the process might be. Any thoughts?
I should also mention that this is Webi run on Solaris, so it’s not as simple as moving a font to the Windows server… :?

Have you found the way to add font to webi, I have the same request now.

Hello
I have the same issue.
Did you try to modify 3 XML files : fontalias… ?
I succeeded in making a new entry of font in WebI pannel. But I don’t have any .AFM font… So I couldn’t go further…
Let me know !

I have the same situation with you. I only follow the instruction you mentioned to add font to fontalias.xml file, that user can use this font in their webi report.

That works also with ActiveX viewer to display full client report?!
thanks.

This topic was very handy, thanks!
In case it’s of use, here’s my bit for adding Verdana to the list:
<FONT NAME="Verdana">
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="ttf" NAME="Verdana">
<FONTATTRIBUTE BOLD="false" ITALIC="false" LOGICAL="Verdana" PHYSICAL="verdana.ttf;Verdana.ttf"/>
<FONTATTRIBUTE BOLD="true" ITALIC="false" LOGICAL="Verdana Bold" PHYSICAL="verdanabd.ttf;verdanab.ttf;Verdana-Bold.ttf"/>
<FONTATTRIBUTE BOLD="false" ITALIC="true" LOGICAL="Verdana Italic" PHYSICAL="verdanai.ttf;Verdana-Italic.ttf"/>
<FONTATTRIBUTE BOLD="true" ITALIC="true" LOGICAL="Verdana Bold Italic" PHYSICAL="verdanabi.ttf;verdanaz.ttf;Verdana-BoldItalic.ttf"/>
</FONTFAMILY>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="win" NAME="Verdana"/>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="java" NAME="Verdana"/>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="html" NAME="Verdana"/>
</FONT>
