Re: Code submission: TrueType font support Build with Xalan2?

[Jeroen de Zwart <fa...@dds.nl>]

I'm very excited about this font submission but i can't build fop with it
because
the class org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTInputSource is not in xalan2.
anybody who knows how to build it with xalan2?

messages from ant:
