I began using iReport for creating JasperReports since version 4.5.1 and then I started using 4.6.0 and created a couple of reports with it. The problem is that whenever I open the “old reports” (generated in 4.5.1) the textfields’ fonts appear white coloured (it becomes “invisible” to me). When I double-click it, it shows the text, but it’s terrible for edition because I can’t see how the text is being displayed on the page.

It works fine with documents created by 4.6.0 and opened by 4.6.0, but not with documents created by previous versions. I guess it has to do with its xml (an attribute maybe).

Things I tried:
(1) Select another colour [green] for the font. (2) Open the .jasper compiled file and generate a new .jrxml.

Thanks in advance 😀

    Nevermind, I found out what was causing the “bug”. It happens that the first report I created in iReport 4.5.1 was saved on Windows with Arial font (which doesn’t exist in Ubuntu/Linux). So I deleted the “fontName” tags on the JRXML file.
