var report = Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport.createNewDashboard();
var fontFileContent = Stimulsoft.System.IO.File.getFile("../dashboard/Roboto-Black.ttf", true);
var resource = new Stimulsoft.Report.Dictionary.StiResource(
"Roboto-Black", "Roboto-Black", false,
Stimulsoft.Report.Dictionary.StiResourceType.FontTtf, fontFileContent);
report.dictionary.resources.add(resource);
var textElement = new Stimulsoft.Dashboard.Components.Text.StiTextElement();
report.pages.getByIndex(0).components.add(textElement);The font is read and added as a StiResource of type FontTtf. Because it travels inside the dashboard, exports are pixel-perfect even where the font is not installed.
