BIRT 3.7. Configuring PDF fonts and jdbc drivers no longer possible?

Question

I am trying to update BIRT to the latest version 3.7. It seems that it is not possible to customize PDF fonts! In previous versions, this was done in files org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.fonts*/fontsConfig*.xml.

In files 3.7, they are fontsConfig*.xmlembedded in the jar file of the BIRT file (in my case, this org.eclipse.birt.runtime_3.7.1.v20110913-1734.jar). The jar file is signed, consider it necessary for OSGI. Therefore, if you change anything in the bank, the JRE throws a checksum when downloading the file. If you delete the signature information, OSGI will not download it (NPE).

Any ideas how I can customize my pdf fonts without restoring the BIRT runtime?

By the way, I suspect that the same problem occurs for jdbc drivers. The above jar file contains a folder drivers. We suspect that this is a stub for jdbc drivers from the plugin org.eclipse.birt.report.data.oda.jdbc*.

A few years ago, I asked about adding PDF fonts from the BIRT runtime. It still doesn't respond BIRT: pdf emitter, loads / uses fonts from relative path or from jar files

UPDATE:

• regarding pdf fonts, an open error was found that was not resolved in 3.7.1 - https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=347431
• According to http://wiki.eclipse.org/Birt_3.7_Migration_Guide#JDBC_Drivers , jdbc drivres should be in the classpath
