Import Kurinto Fonts into ION

In ION Desk you can create PDF reports with the history of user actions for tasks and alerts. A prerequisite for this feature is to upload the Arial Unicode MS font to the ION Server. This font is licensed.

You can also use the open source “Kurinto” fonts. The fonts are available for free and licensed under the SIL Open Font License Version 1.1. Kurinto fonts can be used, studied, copied, merged, modified and redistributed.

To use Kurinto fonts for ION Desk reports:

  1. Download the latest version of fonts at: https://www.kurinto.com/download.htm.
    Download the Kurinto Full Release Package.
  2. After the fonts are downloaded, create a fonts folder.
  3. Go to the folder where you downloaded the Kurinto fonts archive.
    Copy these files to the fonts folder:
    • License.txt
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansCJK-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansHK-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansJP-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansKM-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansKR-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts/KurintoSans-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansSC-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansTB-Rg.ttf
    • Fonts_Lang/KurintoSansTC-Rg.ttf
  4. Create a file with the name README.txt in the fonts folder.
    This is an example of the file content:
    The ION reports font extension zip-file contains, next to this README.txt and the fonts.xml metadata file, these font files from https://www.kurinto.com, from release https://www.kurinto.com/zip/Kurinto_v2.196_Full.zip (SHA256 C6FB2E82DD619CC3D3FF44745D3A8C6446777A0A0B929185DAA73615F9E1D99B):

  5. Create a fonts.xml file in the fonts folder.
    Add this content, do not change the content and structure of the file:
