I managed to generate the PDF finally (without embedding the font). The font
we referred to is OCR-B-1. But Acrobat Reader displays illegible characters.
The font type listed under the "Fonts" information shows it as True Type
(CID). I reckon CID fonts are not supported by FOP at this point of time (as
stated by Satoshi Ishigami in a separate post).
I managed to get the Font embedding to work in Cocoon after adding a line in
org/apache/fop/configuration/ConfigurationParser (endElement method). Not
sure whether this is a bug or not. But after adding this line, font
embedding works in Cocoon.
Maybe I'll post this in Cocoon list too.
Thanks
Satish

Subject: Re: Embedding fonts - works from command line FOP
but not in Coco on 2
This looks good. I wonder where the string "- error" comes from.
You've
probably double-checked that the userconfig.xml can be loaded from
where
you're running Cocoon. I don't have any more ideas other than to
debug
it. Sorry. Does anybody else have an idea?
