Fonts Metric File - Overriding Name

[Paul Moloney <pa...@hotmail.com>]

I'm trying to generate a font metrics files for a Type 1 font, Letter 
Gothic, and
I'm not getting the expected result.

When I generate font metrics file, using the following command:

java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\avalon-framework-c
vs-20020806.jar;lib\xml-apis.jar;lib\xercesImpl-2.2.1.jar;lib\xalan-2.4.1.jar 
or
g.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader -f "LetterGothic" lettergothic.pfm 
lettergothic.xml

I would expect the resulting XML file to have the line:

<font-metrics type="TYPE1"><font-name>LetterGothic</font-name>

However, the font-name is different. Am I using the -fn switch 
incorrectly?

Thanks,

P.

Paul,

what exactly is the problem? Are you just trying to control the font
name you can using inside XSL-FO? If yes, you can ignore what font name
is written into the font metrics. Only the font name you specify in the
font configuration (userconfig.xml) is relevant.

Hi,

Before looking any further, I'd like to make sure that this...
