fonts not recognized

[Stephen Clarke <an...@longusername.worldonline.co.uk>]

Hi,
I just started with fop yesterday. My system doesn't seem to recognize any
fonts except serif and sans-serif. I'm on win2k. It won't even recognize
Times New Roman. Is there some trick to this, does anyone happen to know?
Thanks,
Steve

Sure. See here for an explanation: http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html

It's not so user-friendly, yet, but you get used to it. :-)

http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html will give you information as to how to
add the fonts to fop. The fact that a font is in your system doesn't mean
that it'll be supported/recognized/used by fop unless you follow the
instructions on the URL

We cannot put off living until we are ready. The most salient
characteristic of life is its  coerciveness: it is always urgent,  'here and
now' without any possible postponement. Life is  fired at us point blank.
