Hi Abdullah,
you can still use mentioned MAS UI customization using CSS, by embedding your font using Base64 directly in the CSS.
I would try something like this:
@font-face {
font-family: 'MyCustomFont';
src: url('data:font/woff2;base64,d09GMgABAAAAA...') format('woff2');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
...and then, after locating correct root-element:
[my-root-element-selector] {
font-family: 'MyCustomFont', sans-serif;
}
You need to be aware though of important consequences of this approach:
- Bigger CSS file → Base64 increases size by ~30%
- No caching separately → browser can't cache the font independently of CSS, but it's still capable of caching the whole CSS.
- Harder to maintain → editing/replacing fonts becomes messy
- Slower initial load if CSS gets large

But I want to locate the font locally because the environment is an air-gapped environment.

Hi Abdullah,
then you don't need to install anything on the server side.
You need to make sure that your font is globally referenced in the CSS (ref. Updating the user interface) and available on all end client work stations.

Hi Abdullah,
could you please share some more context?
Are you going to use it with BIRT or in some other way?
If you're after barcodes then you might find this MORE Maximo community thread useful.
