Hello Sergiu,
I have downloaded and installed freefont on Snow Leopard,
Word writes greek ok in freeSerif,
however fop still puts ###### in place of teh Greek letters
when I choose FreeSerif as font family.
Any ideas how to convince fop 0.95 to write greek?
many thanks
Spyros

Hi,
As said in FAQ (see [1]), '#' means that a character is not found in the
used font.
This can have multiple causes:
- FOP is not correctly configured to use the provided font and falls
back to default;
- the provided font doesn't contain any glyph corresponding to the
character;
- the provided font exists only in the regular variation (i.e. non
italic, and you do want italic)
- the character code is not the right Unicode number (if you use
actually an ISO encoding mixed with an XML declaration that says Unicode
encoding)
- etc.

Are you sure that the font is picked up correctly? As an experiment, if
you use FreeMono instead of FreeSerif, does the rest of the text appear
in a monospaced font?
