Hi,

we have the problem that this single FO:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>

  <fo:layout-master-set>
    <fo:simple-page-master page-height="279.4mm" page-width="210mm" master-
name="cover" margin-left="0mm" margin-right="0mm">
      <fo:region-body margin-top="0mm" margin-bottom="0mm">
      </fo:region-body>
    </fo:simple-page-master>
  </fo:layout-master-set>

  <fo:page-sequence master-reference="cover">
    <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body" font-family="Arial Unicode MS">
      <fo:table width="100%" space-before="11mm" table-layout="fixed">
        <fo:table-column column-width="51mm" column-number="1" />
        <fo:table-body text-align="start">
          <fo:table-row>
            <fo:table-cell padding-before="12mm" padding-start="8mm">
              <fo:external-graphic src="url(TestZ.svg)" />
            </fo:table-cell>
          </fo:table-row>
        </fo:table-body>
      </fo:table>
    </fo:flow>
  </fo:page-sequence>

</fo:root>

with this SVG (content):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 20000303 
Stylable//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/03/WD-SVG-20000303/DTD/svg-20000303-
stylable.dtd">
<!-- Generator: IsoDraw 5.1 -->
<svg width="48pt" height="412.146pt" viewBox="0 0 48 412.146" 
xml:space="preserve">
<g id="Standardebene" style="fill-rule:evenodd;clip-
rule:evenodd;stroke:#000000;stroke-miterlimit:4;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-
linejoin:miter;fill:none;">
<text transform="matrix(0 -1 1 0 37 412.146)" 
style="stroke:none;fill:#000000;font-family:'Arial';font-size:47.25;font-
weight:bold;"
>Benutzeranleitung</text>
</g>
</svg>

it is generated in 2 different ways on 2 similar PCs (i.e. computers).
The 1st PC generates an SVG picture with the bold word "Benutzeranleitung"
which perfectly fits in the viewport of the SVG.
On the other PC the word "Benutzeranleitung" is a little bigger and does 
not fit in the same viewport and the last letter 'g' is cut off in the middle.
Evidently there is a different font beeing used for the text rendering.

The 2 PCs have both MS W2k OS, Office 2000 and are pretty the same.
We use the same FOP 0.20.5 instalation (I copyied it on both PCs). I tried
to use same font matrics on both PCs and also locally generated font
matrics (I have successful experiences until now with fonts and metrics
on different PCs in FOP <fo:block>-s)
We also tried to replace all Arial fonts of the 2nd PC with fonts from the 
1st PC and vice versa, but it brought no difference.

Can anybody please help us in this case to get the same results independent
of a computer beeing used for generating PDF using FOP ?

thanx
