Re: € Sign

In that case, you're using a font that doesn't contain the Euro
character.

Please run the file examples/fo/basic/fonts.fo from your FOP
installation through FOP. It demonstrates the use of the Euro character.
If fonts.fo works, you need to change the font in your other document.
If fonts.fo doesn't work, you have a very old PDF viewer and you need to
use a different font, too, preferably a newer TrueType font which is
sure to contain the Euro character. Please note that not all fonts
contains the Euro character.
