Vitara Charts can display text, such as axes labels, data labels, or tooltips, in the text font styles specified by the customer. The processes for deploying custom fonts in Vitara charts are outlined below.
Copy the font file into the following path:
VitaraCharts\style\v430559\font
Open customStyles.css file, which will be in the following path
VitaraCharts\custom
Uncomment the “@font-face” container by deleting the text /** (in first line) and the text **/ (in the line number seven)
Delete the entire text in the second line: “Uncomment to introduce new font-family and make it available”.
Replace “font-family” with the name of the font you want to add. If your font name contains spaces, use quotation marks at the beginning and end of the name. For instance, ““Frutiger 45 Light.”
In src:url line copy the path of the folder in which we copied the font file.
In the below example Hokjesgeest font is deployed.
@font-face {
font-family: Hokjesgeest;
src: url(../style/v430559/font/Hokjesgeest.ttf);
}
Another example which has spaces in the font name:
@font-face {
font-family: "Frutiger 45 Light";
src: url("../style/v430559/font/Frutiger 45 Light.ttf");
}
If you want to add multiple custom fonts, then define font family for each custom font.
@font-face {
font-family: fontello;
src: url(../style/v430559/font/fontello.ttf);
}
List all the custom fonts names in the font vitara-chart-container.
.vitara .vitara-chart-container
{
font-family:Hokjesgeest, fontello, "Frutiger 45 Light", Arial, Helvetica,
Verdana, sans-serif !important;
}
Below is the screenshot of the updated “customStyle.css” file.
Open the file named global.txt in the following path,
VitaraCharts\custom
In this file, you can find fields named font.customFonts and font.defaultFont
Include all the custom fonts specified in the font.customFonts key, each one separated by a comma (,). For example,
font.customFonts=OpenSans, Hokjesgeest, Frutiger 45 Light
To set a font as default font for all charts, set the font.defaultFont key. For example,
font.defaultFont=Hokjesgeest
or
font.defaultFont=Frutiger 45 Light
Refresh your web browser and open Vitara Charts. Below is the screenshot of the custom font in the Vitara chart.
