Some FOP font warnings...
I am getting this when using a Dingbats font and rendering to PDF:
WARNING: Substituted specified hyphenation character (0x2d) with 0x20 because
the font doesn't have the specifiedhyphenation character: Dingbats,normal,400
Kind of weird, since the line is very short and hyphenation seems neither
necessary, nor is it configured. What does this warning mean? The generated
PDF looks fine, though.
If I render the same FO to PS, then I do not get this warning, but instead
two others:
WARNING: Font 'NimbusSansCondensed,normal,400' not found. Substituting with
'any,normal,400'.
WARNING: Font 'Dingbats,normal,400' not found. Substituting with
'any,normal,400'.
The dingbats character (0x274F - a checkbox icon) is actually missing in the
PS and the Nimbus Sans Condensed font is replaced by Times.
If anyone wants to look, I can send a Zip, which contains the FO file, my
fop.xconf and the fonts used (they're from the Ghostscript distribution, so I
think it's ok to send them around).

Well, it actually might. This all comes from the layout engine. The
plain text renderer just interprets the area tree that the layout engine
produces. The layout engine still needs a set of fonts to work off and
doesn't do anything different when the plain text renderer is active.

Ok thanks, will try to contribute, once I get my head around this stuff :)

Oops, right... thanks! What about the plain text renderer? I guess it
shouldn't complain about missing fonts...

The TextLayoutManager currently always retrieves the width of the hyphen
(and space) glyph instead of doing lazy initialization. Patches to
improve things like that are welcome.

Looks like those two fonts were not registered for the PostScript
renderer. Note that font configuration is still separate per renderer.

Not necessary. It's obvious what's going on.
