Renown Financial Reporting lets you define the Columns, Rows, Reporting Hierachy and Fonts to be published in the SQL Reporting Services(" SSRS") report, without the need to use a report designer.
Font Maintenance lets the user create Font Codes which store Font properties that can be assigned to Report Columns and/or Rows. Column Font settings over-ride Row settings.
It is possible to define an unlimited number of Font Codes, which can be used in any Report Column/Row definition.
Each Font Code (ID) allows definition of many formatting properties.

Once Font IDs have been created, they can be assigned to specific Rows within Row Maintenance. Each Report will have a Row Format that describes the Rows that willbe printed. Each Row can have its own Font ID assigned. If the Fond IS is left blank it will print the standard formats details for the applicable line. Typically you woudl only assign Font Format properties for Header and Sub-Totalling Rows and leave regular lines with a normal / standard format.
Where desired you can assign a seperate Font ID to a specific Column. This will over-ride the Font Formats assigned to the Rows in that Column.
