Topic: TCPDF error and printer setup

When I try to print a report, it shows the following error message?

TCPDF error: Could not include font definition file: chinese_traditional_cid0.php

Any suggestion?

Also, how to setup the printer? Should I put the printer queue? I search the forum. It seems only support LPR printing?

Re: TCPDF error and printer setup

The chinese_traditional_cid0 font is not included in core, but:


Please download the font from Website .

Then unpack the files and copy them to /reporting/font folder.

Then it should work.

Re: TCPDF error and printer setup

To hopefully answer your question about setting up the printer, if you go to "Setup -> Print Profiles" and use "Browser Support" for your default printer and then set everything else to "Default" FA will bring-up the browser's print dialog.  If you need anything fancier than that, there's a bit of help here.

Hope that's helpful...

Hi, Chris,

Thanks for your help. But no luck for me. Now, I just click to open a new tab to print. Any other suggestion?

Re: TCPDF error and printer setup

Since what I suggested causes printer to happen using the browser's printing functionality, I have no idea why it wouldn't work for you nor can I figure out why opening another tab would fix it.  Sorry!  Maybe one of the developers can help?

Good luck in your quest for a solution!
