Here i used jasperreports_extension.properties

net.sf.jasperreports.extension.registry.factory.simple.font.families=net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fonts.SimpleFontExtensionsRegistryFactory
net.sf.jasperreports.extension.simple.font.families.dejavu=net/sf/jasperreports/fonts/fonts.xml

In fonts.xml made following entries

<fontFamily name="SolaimanLipi">
       <normal>net/sf/jasperreports/fonts/rdp/SOLAIMANLIPI.ttf</normal>
       <bold>net/sf/jasperreports/fonts/rdp/SOLAIMANLIPI.ttf</bold>
       <italic>net/sf/jasperreports/fonts/rdp/SOLAIMANLIPI.ttf</italic>
       <boldItalic>net/sf/jasperreports/fonts/rdp/SOLAIMANLIPI.ttf</boldItalic>
       <pdfEncoding>Identity-H</pdfEncoding>
       <pdfEmbedded>true</pdfEmbedded>
</fontFamily>

Then I rebuild the jar file with own font set

For example where it rendered as below:

1. গ োপালগঞ্ জ instead of গোপালগঞ্জ
2. মুন্ সীগঞ্ জ instead of মুন্সীগঞ্জ
3. ময়মনস িংহ instead of ময়মনসিংহ

I just made a virtual realization as above. Any solution?

Answer 1

I have way-around for this problem, first need to use Bijoy encoding then use any Bijoy unicode font (DestinyMJ).

গোপালগঞ্জ bijoy encoding - > †MvcvjMÄ

{NAME_BN} = '†MvcvjMÄ';

it will print গোপালগঞ্জ correctly.
