Hi Jacopo,

I was a bit curious so I took a look, the problem was that the $ sign was being encoded twice, both by easpi and by freemarker so when fop came to decode it, it was going from &#36: to $

This is caused by the encoder used for special characters not working properly with our FOP framework. We can fix this by commenting out the following line in widget.properties:

screenfop.encoder=xml

but I am worried because we will then have issues with some special characters breaking the XML syntax of FO.

The encoder that we are using for FOP (with screenfop.encoder=xml ) is (see StringUtil class):

   public static class XmlEncoder implements SimpleEncoder {
       public String encode(String original) {
           return StringUtil.defaultWebEncoder.encodeForXML(original);
       }
   }

where defaultWebEncoder is an object with org.owasp.esapi.Encoder class

Should we use a different approach? Ideas?
