Chinese chars in fop-pdf?
Hi,
if I look for <i18n:date-time/> in html with zh_CN locale then I see
chinese letters. But if I transform to pdf and view with acroread or print it out,
these chars are missing, they are replaced with hash marks "#" (netscape from Linux
and MSIE 6.0 from Windows).
Does anybody know if this is a problem of
- sitemap configuration,
- FOPSerializer,
- fop itself or
- acroread?
I exclude missing font problems because of the same result in Linux and Windows.
Any idea?
Michael

Hi,
I already created patch for this problem.
But, now I notice that I posted unrelated patch to bugzilla!
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6533
Please apply this patch and see cocoon.xconf.

This means the selected font does not have a glyph
for the character. You have to prepare a font containing
chinese glyphs for FOP, install it, and, depending on
the availablility of the font on the reading platform,
embed it into the PDF.
How to prepare the metrics file and what to put into the
FOP configuration cen be glanced from the documentation

Try generating the PDF from a command line prompt and FOP. If you
can't do it, ask on the FOP list (they will have more idea than
most people here).
Sorry I can't help more.
