Help with importing new fonts

[Safa Hussain <sm...@ucdavis.edu>]

 Hello everyone,



I used the following step to import an OCR font



1. took an OCR ttf font that I downloaded and installed into the Windows fonts library

2. generated the font metrics file

3. described new font in userconfig.xml



When I run fop online it does not recognize the existence of the OCR font. I get the following error message. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You have to have a declaration like
      <font-triplet name="OCR" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
in the usserconfig.xml. The names are case sensitive.
