Font ' net/sf/jasperreports/fonts/pictonic/pictonic.ttf ...' is not available to the JVM

The full error message is:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

Obviously there might have several reasons for this error. A Google Search or stackoverflow search will bring many results.

For me, in one instance, the problem was with the jasperreports version as I had more that one jasperreports jar in my classpath.

My reports were compiled with jasperreports-5.6.0 and in my classpath jasperreports-4.1.1.jar was also included and accidentally jasperreports-4.1.1.jar was "up" in the Build class path order.

Actually, my eclipse project had jasperreports-5.6.0 as a library jar and this project had another project as "Required projects in the build path" that contained the old version of jasperreports.

I moved the jasperreports-5.6.0 to "Up in the build classpath order" than the old version, and the problem got resolved.

Again, later I removed the project dependency and got the problem resolved as well.

So check, whether you have more than one jasperreports library  anyhow; if so, remove the unnecessary duplicate jar.
