Question about adding fonts and custom samples for OnlyOffice ?

[nebulon]

I was not aware of that feature actually and thus the app package does not support this yet.
Since apps on Cloudron run on a read-only filesystem, we have to symlink those folders into /app/data/ somewhere, that way they are also part of the backup.

I created an issue in the app package repo at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/onlyoffice-app/issues/1 so we don't forget about it

@nebulon Stumbled across this while trying to find out how to add custom fonts. I would appreciate this option as well since standard fonts like Helvetica aren't included plus I would like to import a company-specific font that aligns with their CI

@nebulon +1 to add custom fonts in Onlyoffice. Do you think it will be possible in a next release of the pakage ?
Thanks !

[nebulon]

The latest app package now supports adding custom fonts. See https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/onlyoffice/#custom-fonts for details.

@nebulon Awesome!

@nebulon I followed these instructions but the fonts are not shown in the web-app. I'm trying to add up the iA Writer fonts (all TTF), but restarting the app and the browser doesn't show any of the new fonts in the app.

Any hint of what else should I do?

Hello, you need not only to restart your brower but before doing so, you must clear the cache of it. One way to find out is trying the app in another browser, so if it works then that means the other one cache is not fully cleared. If it does not work in both, then the issue is elsewhere.

@micmc hey thanks! Yeah, I tried in another browser and no new fonts appears

Hello @nebulon . Could you please check this feature again ? It seems adding fonts is not working anymore
I've Nextcloud and OnlyOffice apps running on the same Cloudron. I'm in need to use a few custom ttf fonts to allow users to write in their local language (ie Lao fonts like these : Saysettha).
Despite following the process mentioned custom fonts won't show up in the menu...
Thanks for your support

I can reproduce an error with fonts at least. The app does pick up the font correctly but while trying to open the font selection dropdown it crashes if a custom font was added. The browser console shows:

Uncaught RangeError: attempting to construct out-of-bounds Uint8ClampedArray on ArrayBuffer

Not yet sure what the bug is and what needs fixing.

This took a bit but the latest package version has this fixed.
