RE: Compliance table is out of date - last version shown is 2.4

[Simon Steiner <si...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

 

The table should now say that 2.4 to 2.7 is the same.

 

Normally you will add a thick/light variant of a font file to the fop.xconf
if you want a different weight used.

simulate-style is just for bold weight.

 

Thanks

Hi all,

 

We're not getting numeric font-weight values to work in 2.6, so I checked
the compliance table. It only lists versions up to 2.4 and says the support
is partial. There's a TODO comment about the lighter/bolder value options,
but no mention of numeric value support 100, 200, 300, etc

 

If the font we're using doesn't have specific weights for the numeric values
and simulate-style is false in the fop.xconf, could this be in play?

 

Using 500 looks exactly like 400 and 600 looks exactly like 700.

 

Any guidance would be appreciated,
