fop 0.93 and use of OTF
Hi,
I've read in the release notes that FOP 0.93 supports the use of otf, but it
doesn't explain how, or at least I didn't find that explanation. With ttf, I
obtain the xml with a certain instruction. Which one is the instruction to
obtain the xml file from an .otf? And should I modify the fop.xconf in the
same way I did it for the .ttf?
Thanks in advance

Maybe. FOP is open source. Anything's possible if someone invests the
necessary resources.

It may already work for PCL since PCL can use Java2D for painting text.
But for PDF a little additional work will be necessary.

I'd guess in 2008. http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/faq.html#when

Hi,
Unfortunatelly, my font contains CFF glyphs. Is version 1.0 going to support
this kind of fonts? This support will be for pdf and pcl? only for pdf? Do
you have an approximate date of release for version 1.0?
Thanks in advance

Yes, just substitute ".tff" with ".otf" but please note that OTF fonts
with CFF glyphs are still not supported. So there's no guarantee that
all OTF fonts will work. You will have to try it out.
