Polish fonts in Postscript
Hi !
Well I have a problem with forcing FOP (trunk) to print to postscript and
properly display polish fonts using Arial (ttf2pt1). The problem occurs in
two ways. First - when I don`t generate any font metrics I receive PS with
random chars like %,$,#,! in the places when even normal (not ś, ą, ć etc.)
letters should appear. Second - when I have font metrics, PS looks all right
but instead of polish characters, I get #.
What`s strange, everything works fine when I`m printing to PDF.
Can anybody help me or point in right direction ??

The problem maybe because you use a font metrics file. That step was
deprecated a while ago. If the metrics were generated with the -enc ansi
option then glyphs outside the ANSI range such as Polish glyphs can't be
referenced. My advice is to remove the reference to the metrics file
from your fop.xconf file and try to generate the PS again.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi, I assume it's a problem in the font, then. You mentioned that it's a
converted font. Maybe that conversion didn't work out well. Difficult to
tell without access to the font.

Thanks for advice, though as I`ve written before the problem occurs even when
I`m not using metrics.
Btw. part of my config looks like:
<renderers>
<renderer mime="application/postscript">
<auto-rotate-landscape>true</auto-rotate-landscape>
<optimize-resources>true</optimize-resources>
<fonts>
<directory>c:/fop</directory>
<font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
<font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</fonts>
</renderer>
</renderers>
