FOP 0.20.0 Release now available
What it says. :-) I will be announcing it in various spots over the next day
or two.
I'd be particularly gratified if Windows people would put the thing through
its paces, and let me know if there are any problems. Thanks.
Regards,
Arved Sandstrom

OK, great. I will create another distro, retire 0.20.0, and put up 0.20.1,
this evening.
(build.xml will also reflect Chetan Vig's proposed changes).

Okay, this should be fixed now.
The problem was due to the fonts being added to the reasources after each
page. It is now added at the end, in stopRenderer.
This also caused the npe that you were experiencing (I'm not sure how,
something to do with setting characters as used)
I'm not sure about the problem letters, I couldn't get the font file. Maybe
someone else can check if this is still a problem.

Confirmed, on all counts:
1) NPE running your 'dsrb2' example, something to do with the lazy font code
it looks like;
2) 500 K file for 17 pages with your 'emp' example. I'm not familiar with
fonts, so someone else is going to want to examine this;
3) problems with some letters in 'emp'.
We advertise font support prominently on the website; I'm not going to
announce FOP-0.20.0 until we have some resolution on this.

I have to say I tried yesterday current CVS version an I ran into
serious problems. With one file renedering failed with exception, from
class names it seemed that it happen somewhere in font stuff. With
other file it seemed that fonts are embedded for each page again and
again resulting in very large file. When displaying some letters were
crippled. I am attaching files that caused these problems. To render
them you need Microsoft's TTFs "Times New Roman" and "Arial Narrow" set
up in userconfig.xml. I uploaded these fonts to:
