Font in generated PDF differs from Paragraph rule defined font

SA-97857

Summary



A Paragraph rule is referenced in a Correspondence rule. The Paragraph rule contains multiple paragraphs that are styled in Arial 12pt font. On generating a PDF, one of the paragraph's style displays in a different font. However, most of the paragraphs' style displays correctly.

Content of the Paragraph:

<pega:when name="--------">
<div><span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:arial;"> Example Text <pega:reference name=".--------(1).--------(1).--------"></pega:reference> on (<pega:reference name=".--------(1).--------(1).--------"></pega:reference> &ndash; <pega:reference name=".--------(1).--------(1).--------"></pega:reference>) Example Text <pega:reference name=".--------(1).--------(1).--------"></pega:reference>Example Text</span></span></div> </pega:when>
