font configuration
Hi, I'm trying to make an existing stylesheet to work with my xml file. But it has lines like this:
<fo:block font="bold 8pt arial"> and <fo:table-cell border-bottom=".6pt solid black">, etc.
When I compile, the engine complains:
SEVERE: Ignoring property: font="bold 16pt arial" (No conversion defined bold; property:'font')
Because neither font nor border-bottom is a valid attribute, I have to define them somewhere. Is it in the font configuration file? I used this to set my font configuration file location in java:
fopFactory.setFontBaseURL("file:///C:/xslfoFont/fo.xconf");
But I don't know how to define the font="bold 8pt arial" or border-bottom=".6pt solid black" in the file.
Can someone help me on this?
Thanks a lot!
Ming

Hi, Andreas,
Thanks a lot for the reply. I did try this: font="bold 16pt 'Arial'" and the build passed. Thanks for the help and submitting the bug.

In the meantime, I have checked closer, and this is indeed a bug, still present in FOP Trunk. As soon as you put single quotes around the font-family name, it works as expected. This very simple case, I apparently never included in the corresponding testcase, as it only checks for lists of font-families or quoted names with spaces... If I amend the testcase, the build fails. I have logged Bugzilla 47709 for follow-up[*].
Seems that at the time, I was too focused on making font-family lists work correctly, and forgot to check the most simple cases. :-/

I did try this. But I'm not sure how to use it in the font= representation. This is what I have in my fop.xconf file:
<font kerning="yes" embed-url="file:///C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/arial.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
<font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</font>
<font kerning="yes" embed-url="file:///C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/arialbd.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
<font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="normal" weight="bold"/>

Arial and Arial Bold are separate Fonts. This isn't clear to Font newbies because of MS Word's ability to mimic Bold and Italic Font variants from the regular Font. So if you need Bold and Italic variants of Arial you must register them separately within fop.xconf, e.g.
<font kerning="yes"

<font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="bold"/>

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I just configured my fop.xconf file by removing the metrics-url attribute and the Arial font works.
But I still cannot make the "bold" work. Whenever I put bold into the font=, either warning or SEVERE message will appear.
Do you have any idea how I can configure to make the bold (or the font-weight) work in the shorthand representation?
Thanks a lot!

At least with this warning FOP is looking for the Font you have
requested. With previous warnings FOP is not parsing the shorthand
property correctly.

Re: font configuration
Posted by Ming Yu <my...@yahoo.com>.
Thanks for the reply. Here is the strange thing.
When I put the order as font="16pt bold arial", the FO engine gives this warning:
WARNING: Font 'bold arial,normal,400' not found. Substituting with 'any,normal,400'.
When I put the order as font="bold 16pt arial" , the FO engine gives the SEVERE error:
SEVERE: Ignoring property: font="bold 16pt arial" (No conversion defined bold; property:'font')
Even when I use individual tag as font-size="16pt" font-weight="bold" font-family="Arial", FO engine also gives this warning:
WARNING: Font 'Arial,normal,700' not found. Substituting with 'any,normal,700'.
According to Apache's documentation, I need to generate the arial.xml file myself like this:
java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\avalon-framework.jar;lib\commons-logging.jar;lib\commons-io.jar
org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader [options]
C:\myfonts\cmr10.ttf ttfcm.xml
I tried to run it but I got errors.
Do you know how I can get the arial.xml file?
Thanks a lot!

Strange... seems like the font-family is parsed as 'bold Arial'. This may need to be looked into closer. Are you sure this is nowhere specified as such in the FO?
A value like 'font="16pt bold Arial"' could lead to the above result.
The right order is style/weight/variant, then size, then font-family, and font-family names with spaces are supported, so formally there is nothing wrong with that value for the shorthand, even though the order is mixed up.

You can turn off strict validation(*), but that is not recommended, since it will skip a lot of other validation rules as well, which could lead to unpredictable results and makes your FO less portable to other implementations.
Better would be to make sure that each cell always contains an empty fo:block.

Strange... seems like the font-family is parsed as 'bold Arial'. This
may need to be looked into closer. Are you sure this is nowhere
specified as such in the FO?
A value like 'font="16pt bold Arial"' could lead to the above result.
The right order is style/weight/variant, then size, then font-family,
and font-family names with spaces are supported, so formally there is
nothing wrong with that value for the shorthand, even though the order
is mixed up.

You can turn off strict validation(*), but that is not recommended,
since it will skip a lot of other validation rules as well, which
could lead to unpredictable results and makes your FO less portable to
other implementations.
Better would be to make sure that each cell always contains an empty
fo:block.

Re: font configuration
Posted by Ming Yu <my...@yahoo.com>.
Thanks a lot for the reply. I checked my version and found out that it's 0.94. So, I upgraded to 0.95. Now the SEVERE error changes to a warning:
WARNING: Font 'bold Arial,normal,400' not found. Substituting with 'any,normal,400'.
Should I install the font myself somewhere? I'm using Eclipse as my IDE.
I also have another question regarding empty table-cell. The following lines:
<fo:table-cell></fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell border-right=".6pt solid black"></fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell border-right=".6pt solid black" border-bottom=".6pt solid black"/>
will produce the following error:
fo:table-cell is missing child elements.
Required Content Model: marker* (%block;)+
How can I allow empty cells?
Thanks a lot!
Ming

Which version are you using exactly. The 'font' shorthand was implemented rather late (as of 0.94, IIC).
It should definitely work correctly with 0.95.

> Because neither font nor border-bottom is a valid attribute, I have to define them somewhere. Is it in the font configuration file? I used this to set my font configuration file location in java:
font and border-bottom are shorthand properties. To use them you must
specify the values list in the correct order. Looking at the spec the
order seems correct. I suggest you try specifying the properties
individually instead, e.g. font-weight="bold" font-size="16pt"
font-family="arial"

Try using the individual properties instead of the shorthands.
