David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-1110:
---------------------------------------

One of the big design goals of OFBiz is to support larger and more varied organizations. In other words, we need ways that things can support different languages, fonts, locales, etc for the same artifacts. So, #2 would be better than #1, and as a general solution some variation of #2 might be better.

> current ofbiz(OOTB) reporting does not support multilingual users. When you use non-english locale you get '#" characters.
> additionally it is hard to track all changes in reports so here default font comes up. 
> it would be great to add fop.xcon file to trunk with UNICODE font that could print any characters in any languages.
> I've made up two another solutions 1) is a property in general.properties that store default font
> 2) to associate font-family name  with locale as property (in property file) and use this font-family to print reports in user language properly.
> with second solution users can define what fonts they have and want to use
