Cognos Report Migration from 1.1 to 8.4.1 and default font change

[Rama_pal]

All,

Recently my client has migrated their cognos reports for Report net 1.1 to 8.4.1.

It has been observed default layout (Look and feel) ,default font and font sizes of the upgraded reports (8.4.1) were different from the original version (Report net 1.1).

Is there a way where we can retain the default font and other stuff of 1.1 .My client is insisting to retain layout and font things.

Can we achieve the old stuff by replacing or modifying any of the below files under Cognos 8.4.1 installed folder / report styles (sub folder) with that of Cognos 1.1. If so what files needs to be replaced and path of those files in 1.1 installed folder.

1) default_layout.css
2)GlobalReportStyles.css
3)GlobalReportStyles_1.css
4)GlobalReportStyles_none.css

Waiting for reply with anticipation.

Thanks

I think one of the themes shipped with Cognos 8 emulates the old ReportNet look and feel. If you go to My Preferences and choose each style in turn, you should see the one I mean (I think it might be Classic, but I could be wrong).

Cheers!
