Can't create 3of9Barcode font metric file
Hello,
I want use a Barcode font to create barcodes in my documents, I've
started with
the example examples/fo/advanced/barcode.fo .
So I've got the 3of9barcode font file from:
http://www.geocities.com/keith_dimmock/
And I tried to create the font metric with following command:
java -cp
/opt/fop/build/fop.jar:/opt/fop/lib/avalon-framework-4.2.0.jar:/opt/fop/lib/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar:/opt/fop/lib/commons-io-1.1.jar
org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader -d k3.ttf k3.xml
TTF Reader for Apache FOP 0.93
Parsing font...
Reading k3.ttf...
Reading 10 dir tables
dir tables: [cmap, hhea, OS/2, maxp, head, glyf, hmtx, name, loca, post]
unit per em: 2048
Number of glyphs in font: 48
hhea.Ascender: 800 390
hhea.Descender: 0 0
Number of horizontal metrics: 2
Error while building XML font metrics file.

at org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader.main(TTFReader.java:161)
If I try to use the metric file that's within the folder
examples/fo/advanced
I've got the following error:
Failed to read font metrics file /opt/fop/fonts/k3.xml
org.xml.sax.SAXException: Missing metrics-version attribute - please
regenerate the font metrics file with a more recent version of FOP
I'm using FOP Version 0.93
Can anyone help me?

Well, its not surprising that FOP takes longer to render a single
document when the Font metrics are no available, it has to go and
generate them. But for subsequent documents I would expect the time to
be back to 0.5 second.

Uh Oh... sounds like a bug!

Even if it had worked I would recommend against it personally as it
dramatically increases processing times... I turned the option on here
for ARIALUNI.TTF and it took 2.5 seconds to create a PDF file compared
to 0.5 seconds. You may as well have the XML file there since you have
to go and manually add entries for the TTF files anyway. If FOP one day
starts picking up the TTF files which are installed on the computer
without having to be told, the situation may change.
As an added bonus, the resulting PDF wouldn't open in Adobe Reader
anymore either, but that's probably one of these "may not yet work as
expected" things. :-)

Not your mistake, Joerg. It was a bug. I've fixed it shortly after you
raised it here: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&rev=496860
I wonder why we haven't seen this bug earlier since we actually have
K3.ttf in our distribution under the examples.
If you can use FOP Trunk (from SVN), you can get the K3.ttf font to work.
The alternative with FOP 0.93 is to use Barcode4J for Code39 barcodes.

I don't know. I was just repeating what Jeremias told you. Since
Jeremias was the one who implemented the feature of not specifying the
Font metrics, lets wait and see what he says on the matter.

Hi Chris,
I've changed my FOP configuration file
<font kerning="no" embed-url="/opt/fop/examples/fo/advanced/K3.TTF">
<font-triplet name="Barcode" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</font>
then I started fop and got following error:
Jan 30, 2007 4:59:51 PM org.apache.fop.fonts.truetype.TTFFile readFont
INFO: Number of glyphs in font: 48
Jan 30, 2007 4:59:52 PM org.apache.fop.fonts.LazyFont load
SEVERE: Failed to read font metrics file null
java.io.EOFException: Reached EOF, file size=5104 offset=5104
Where's my mistake?

Well Jeremias asked you not to run TTFReader but instead just specify
embed-url="k3.ttf" in the font element of the FOP configuration file.
Then try to generate a PDF from the XSL-FO file.

Re: Can't create 3of9Barcode font metric file
Posted by Jeremias Maerki <de...@jeremias-maerki.ch>.
With FOP 0.93 you can skip the step with the TTFReader and remove
"metrics-url" in your configuration file. I've just tested it with the
K3.ttf font and it works if you don't use a metrics file. Note: This is
a new feature in 0.93 and may not yet work as expected. Feedback on this
is welcome (positive and negative).
I'll check why the TTFReader stumbles over this file.

Re: Can't create 3of9Barcode font metric file
Posted by Adrian Cumiskey <ad...@gmail.com>.
Hi Joerg,
I have just ran the same test and looked at the code and I believe that
it might be a problem with your ttf file.
It looks like the ttf file could be clipped - the last instruction in
the ttf reader skips 4 * 4 bytes memory usage values which takes this
ttf file to the end of the file so I believe the exception thrown to be
correct behaviour. Have you tried converting a different ttf font file?
Cheers,
