Follow the steps below to create the custom theme that will support multiple Unicode character sets:

  • Stop the Live Forms server
  • Uncompress/expand the frevvo.war file. This is typically located here: <frevvo-home>/tomcat/webapps/frevvo.war 
  • Add your font file (unifont.tff file is an example) to WEB-INF/fonts directory
