Croatian characters in fop created pdf
Hi
I have created I java class that takes xml file and xsl file and creates
pdf.
Now my xml has croatian character and those are showen as #.
I read documentation and it says that fonts must be avaliable on the
platform.
Now I don't understand this since I have croatina locale set and I can view
pdf files that have
croatian characters.
I have tried to use different font familises for fo:block tag. (Arial,
Symbol etc ...)
What should I do to make it work. If you can explain it to me step by step I
would be very thankful.
My method is
public void createPdf(String xml, String xslPath, String outputPdfPath)
throws TransformerConfigurationException, TransformerException,
FileNotFoundException, FOPException, IOException
{
Logger log = new ConsoleLogger(ConsoleLogger.LEVEL_WARN);
MessageHandler.setScreenLogger(log);
FileOutputStream fos=new FileOutputStream(outputPdfPath);
//Options options = new Options(new
File("c:\\Adis\\MedicSoft\\MedicsoftClient\\GUI\\config\\print\\userconfig.xml"));
Driver driver=new Driver();
driver.setLogger(log);
driver.setOutputStream(fos);
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
StreamSource xmlStreamSource=new StreamSource(new StringReader(xml));
Transformer
transformer=TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer(new
StreamSource(xslPath));
transformer.transform(xmlStreamSource, new
SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler()));
fos.close();
}
and xsl that is used for fop is very easy

I just found on this page:
http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/technotes/fonts.html
the CMAPS of the core fonts (down the bottom).
Does anyone know if they correspond (with data) to our xml font files.
Also is there anywhere that shows a list of the glyphs
for these fonts, preferably with a picture. So that it
is easier to find if a font has the characters needed.

Hi,
I'll try to clarify the FAQ entry.
The short answer is that you need to configure it to embed the required
font and/or use the correct encoding for the characters in the XML.
The default pdf fonts only have a certain set of characters.
I don't know anything about croatian characters so I might need some
more help from you.
btw this is more of a user question.
Keiron.
