embedding fonts using xml-font-files and userconf.xml
hi!
i've got problems embedding fonts.
as described in http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html and other resources i
generated the xml font-file with:
java -cp fop.jar org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader zurchn.ttf zurich.xml
i placed resulting zurich.xml along with the original *.ttf-file in the
fop-directory and in the conf-directory as well
Then i renamed the font-name in the <font-name>-tag to "Zurich" in the
zurich.xml
i configured the userconfig in the conf-directory in the following way:
<fonts>
<font metrics-file="zurich.xml" kerning="yes" embed-file="zurich.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Zurich" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
</font>
</fonts>
then i tried to use it as font-family="Zurich" in a <fo:block>-tag in my fo
file.
but when i invoked that file with:
java -cp fop.jar org.apache.fop.apps.Fop -c userconfig.xml -fo
schulung.fo -pdf output.pdf
and
fop -c userconfig.xml -fo schulung.fo -pdf output.pdf
among others
the result always was:
WARNING: unknown font Zurich,normal,normal so defaulted font to any
any ideas what went wrong?
regards matze

Hehe, it would've been to easy if it was only a typo :)
It really don't have any other suggestions except using absolute
urls/paths in userconfig.xml, like:
<font metrics-file="file:///C:/fop/zurich.xml"
kerning="yes"
embed-file="C:\WINNT\Fonts\zurich.ttf"
<font-triplet name="Zurich" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</font>

i tried differend styles and weights, also i tried "normal", "normal", again
after your mail.
unfortunately it was not the solution.
the weight="bold" was one of my last try outs, therefore it's written in the
mail.
any over ideas?

Yes, you only added Zurich bold to userconfig.xml. If you want to use the
normal weight, you have to add that one too (weight="normal").
