Although the necessary AFM files are created and transferred into the AFM directory on the server, and also the PPD file is being populated with the names of the AFM files properly, these AFM files are not in use and still getting the following error while running reports :

REP-1352 "the fonts specified for this report cannot be found for the character set specified by NLS_LANG."
