Beginning with Java version 9, many distributions of Java, either procured from Oracle or from any of the OpenJDK versions, do not include the necessary fonts for ExtraView to function fully.\u00a0 It is expected that the provision of these fonts, and their installation into the operating system of your server is a separate deliverable from Java.<\/p>\n

There are many open source fonts which can be installed.\u00a0 The following instructions show how the DejaVu <\/em>fonts available at https:\/\/dejavu-fonts.github.io\/<\/a> can be installed.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. First, ensure that your operating system has the fontconfig <\/code>operating system utility installed and running.\u00a0 For example, if you only installed the minimum configuration for CentOS, you can do the following:yum install fontconfig<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Select the source for fonts and the specific fonts you wish to install.\u00a0 If you use DejaVu<\/em> as the source and download into \/home\/installs<\/code>, then use these instructions to install:\n

    unzip dejavu-fonts-ttf-2.37.zip<\/code><\/p>\n

    cd dejavu-fonts-ttf-2.37<\/code><\/p>\n

    cd ttf<\/code><\/p>\n

    Now copy the ttf files to the fonts folder – usually \/usr\/share\/fonts<\/code><\/p>\n

    cp *.tff \/usr\/share\/fonts\/<\/code><\/li>\n

  3. Refresh the font cache to initialize the new fonts:\n

    fc-cache -f -v<\/code><\/li>\n

  4. Verify the fonts were installed correctly:\n

    fc-list | grep \"Deja\"<\/code><\/p>\n

    You should see a list of the DejaVu <\/em>fonts.\u00a0 These should include both sans and serif varieties.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
