Determine font names to use
I am slowly getting through this minefield,
For the AutoReg fonts, how do we determine the names to use in the XML
I have been trying the following and am getting annoying and conflicting
results.
The text in the xsl is
<fo:block font-family="FrutigerNormal" font-weight="normal"
font-style="normal" font-size="15pt" text-align="left">
This is supposed to be in Frutiger Normal to test the auto-detect fonts
</fo:block>
Error is
2011-05-11 09:01:21,837 [main] WARN org.apache.fop.apps.FOUserAgent - Font
"FrutigerNormal,normal,400" not found. Substituting with "any,normal,400".
Next change.
Text in the xsl is changed to
<fo:block font-family="Frutiger" font-weight="normal" font-style="normal"
font-size="15pt" text-align="left">
This is supposed to be in Frutiger Normal to test the auto-detect
fonts</fo:block>
FOP works fine,
Adobe responds however with a large bullet on the page and the popup "Cannot
find or create the font 'FrutigerLight'. Some Characters may not display or
print correctly.
FOP log shows
2011-05-11 09:04:11,918 [main] WARN org.apache.fop.apps.FOUserAgent - Font
"Frutiger,normal,400" not found. Substituting with Frutiger,normal,200".
Ok lets try it one more time.
<fo:block font-family="Frutiger" font-weight="light" font-style="normal"
font-size="15pt" text-align="left">
This is supposed to be in Frutiger Normal to test the auto-detect fonts
</fo:block>
Popup the same,
Log the same
2011-05-11 09:07:31,919 [main] WARN org.apache.fop.apps.FOUserAgent - Font
"Frutiger,normal,400" not found. Substituting with "Frutiger,normal,200".
Ok that's strange its not accepting the font-weight param anymore (the old
version of Fop worked fine.)
Change the XSL to font-weight="200" and there is no error in the FOP logs
but still the same error on the PDF.
So, how do we use these fonts and how do you find the names needed to use
them properly ?
The fopconfig.xml is as follows.
<renderer mime="application/pdf">
<fonts>
<directory
recursive="true">C:/Runtime/Fonts</directory>
<auto-detect/>
</fonts>
</renderer>

Thanks for the information but I am using FOP as an api within a tomcat app so while it may help as a standalone thing, I was hoping to be able to get the actual names programmatically so that I could generate a list in the app of installed fonts on the JS editor.
