Have you tried installing the required font in the system? Please try installing it properly and make sure that its present in the default Fonts folder. Let us know in case issue still persists.

i have limited access to the server. is it possible to load the font file instead of installing the font?

You can use FontRepository.OpenFont() method in order to load font from file.
