TTF Font Support with Fop-0.18.1
Hello,
after reading the instructions on the web site, I tried to include a ttf
font (arial). I modified userconfig.xml:
<font
metrics-file="file:///E:/Temp/Fop-0.18.1-
DEV/Fonts/arial.xml" kerning="yes"
embed-file="E:\Temp\Fop-0.18.1-
DEV\Fonts\arial.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Arial"
style="normal"
weight="normal"/>
</font>
and I've used the font.fo example with
<fo:block space-after.optimum="10pt"
font-family="Arial">
Ok !
</fo:block>
With fop.bat there where no error messages:
>fop -c conf\userconfig.xml docs\examples\fo\fonts.fo

What have I missed ?

Posted by Jason <dr...@nc.rr.com>.
this also persists with the TTF version of MICR font.
the characters render, but they are nothing like the
actual font character itself. is there something in
common with these types of fonts which prevents them
from rendering properly?

Yes, bug 1105 is still there. I don't think it related to specific fonts.
I.e. I have a document with the Palatino font where it rendered some
places but not found other places. I'm working on it and hope to have a
fix during easter.

I recently verified, that TTF font embedding bug 1105 is still present
in 0.18.1. However my Arial is working, Times and Courier are also fine.
Problems are with Verdana, Georgia, Arial Narrow and Trebuchet MS.

P.S. All these are microsoft's web core fonts downloadable from

Hello,
I update acrobat reader to 4.05, for Arial I see now two "o",
another font (more older from Corel WP, 1996) gives again nothing.
I used arial.ttf (19.11.1999 on WinNT 4, size: 151 232),
maybe it's the bug 1105 ?!
Ok, I will wait for some news in the discussion.
Thanks for the answers, Carsten

As I can see you have made no mistake. This behavior is described in bug
1105. But latest Arial from microsoft worked ok for me, I had these
problems with other fonts.
