Adding New Fonts to OBIEE 11.1.1.9

Actually, this has been mentioned from many blogs before but I still get emails regarding this hence I will blog this again.
As an example, I will add two fonts to OBIEE.
  1. Calibri
  2. Century Gothic

Prerequisite:

You must make sure that you have already installed the font to C:\Windows\Fonts

Step 1:

Go to: ..\Oracle_BI1\bifoundation\web\msgdb\messages
Open file: commonuitemplates.xml
Add the fonts:
commonuitemplates
Note that this will determine the ordering. So if you like to have it in alphabetical order, you will need to sort it in this step.

Step 2:

Go to: ..\Oracle_BI1\bifoundation\web\schemas
Open file: analysis_formats.xsd
Add the fonts:
analysis_formats
Note that this step does not affect the ordering but it is best practice to have step 1 and step 2 both in alphabetical orders.

Step 3:

Restart Presentation Services
In column properties, check and see whether your new fonts is there.
