[GNC] Currency symbol (INR) not showing on Tax Invoice report

[Deva -]

Thank you for your response, Frank.

When I look at the “Default” stylesheet, Arial is the default font. When I look at the Character Viewer on my Mac, I can see that the INR (rupee) symbol is available, though I couldn’t figure out what font that is.

This was not a problem until 3.3, so I am not sure how to fix this in 3.4.

I tried changing the default stylesheet’s font to Helvetica/MS Sans Serif, but it still doesn’t show the report with proper symbol for INR.

Following your other wiki instructions, I then looked at Tools->Security Editor to check if the currency symbol is there and everything looks ok on that screen (see attached screenshot). I can see the currency editor shows the proper symbol for INR (rupee).

Also note that this is only a problem in reports. The currency symbol is showing fine on the main account tree page.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can try.

Cheers.

Hello,

I am on GnuCash 3.4, Mac OS 10.13.6 (High Sierra).

Please see attached for a sample invoice I generate out of GnuCash based on the Tax Invoice report (sensitive data has been masked). Today was the first time I tried to run this report from GnuCash 3.4 and I noticed that the INR currency symbol is showing up as a missing symbol icon.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

You need (to install and) use a font, wich contains the symbol. See
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_get_I_rid_of_strange_unreadable_characters_or_adjust_the_font_size

I tried turning off the display of currency symbol in the report via Edit->Report Options, but didn’t see anything to that effect.

At least you should be able to use something else, see
