To export a Confluence page written in a language other than English, you need to install the necessary font for that language. This means that you need to upload the font file to Confluence, as described below.
Uploading a Font File to Confluence
- Find the appropriate font file:
- Windows users: All font files in Windows are stored in a directory called:
C:\WINDOWS\Fonts
- Unix users: All font files in Unix are stored in:
/usr/share/fonts
- Microsoft True Type core fonts such as Verdana can be downloaded from this page: http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/
- Windows users: All font files in Windows are stored in a directory called:
- Copy the font file into a temporary folder, for example a folder on your desktop.
- Go to the 'PDF Language Support' screen in the Confluence Administration Console and upload the file you copied in step 2.
- Click 'Install'.
Notes
- The only font files supported are true type fonts and true type collections. The accepted file extensions are *.ttf and *.ttc.
- We recommend that you use Unicode font Verdana for correct character encoding and exporting to PDF.
