This is a general question. If I want to use non-ESRI symbology as part of a public facing web service, where should the associated fonts/ESRI Style Files be placed so that they can be read and displayed properly as part of the web service? Should they be installed onto the same server that has ArcGIS Server installed?

Thanks-

Steve

Hi Steve,

Items must be installed on the machine ArcGIS Server is installed on... Think of ArcGIS Server as a User, it Opens ArcMap... to see all custom Fonts.. that machine must also have the same info as do you when you open ArcMap.
