On Linux systems, iHub installs Latin-1 fonts, AFM files, and at least one font set of each non-CJK language. Non-CJK languages are those languages other than Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Each font set consists of the normal, italic, bold, and bold-italic variations of the font. For non-CJK languages, Actuate installs a localized version of a font type similar to the Arial font, including the corresponding AFM and PFA files.
Actuate works with, but does not supply the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) fonts listed in Table 13‑1.

If you add a CJK font to the font properties file, the font name must be in the native language. The font’s AFM file is required. iHub does not embed CJK fonts; therefore, you must print the PostScript file using a printer on which the font is installed.
iHub can embed non-CJK fonts. If a font is embedded in the output, the font’s PFA file is required. For example, for a non-CJK font, the Linux font name must be the same as the value for the FontName parameter in the PFA file.
