Birt Viewer won't find proper fonts for charts under linux

Garey

I have a report that has Arial selected for the axis inside a chart. When previewed within the BIRT designer under windows everything works correctly. When I transfer it to a Linux box running BIRT viewer (2.6.2) the fonts are always rendered as Courier.

Note that I've already been through modifying the

./WEB-INF/platform/plugins/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.fonts_2.6.2.r262_v20110127/fontsConfig.xml

and

./WEB-INF/platform/plugins/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.fonts_2.6.2.r262_v20110127/fontsConfig_linux.xml

files. I also turned on logger to "ALL" and can see from the log that the proper font directories are being read. The "arial.ttf" file also exists and can be view by gnome-font-viewer can render the font correctly and display all the font files info.

Viewer Version : 2.6.2
Engine Version: 2.6.2
JRE version: 1.6.0

Any ideas would be great.
