Hello everyone

I am using Document Composer for the first time. I am trying to add various text elements with different fonts and background colors.
Font shows up fine in the development canvas but when I see the PDF output, its not that font.

Can anyone post an example with some font styles and background colors for the same?

Thank you.

I am using WF 8.2.04 and I can not reproduce your issue. I change the font on the canvas and run it and the different fonts display properly. It may be a bug in 8.2.01 I suggest you open a case with techsupport


Thank you for using Focal Point!

You are right Papyrus did not display correctly at run time, it looked fine in the document composer. Better open a case to report this.
