This not my FO document, but is a *standard one* in the examples folder
provided with the fop distribution. I tried removing the enclosing
<fo:wrapper> from the example fo document and it generated a pdf without
problems.
The following patch file seems to fix the ClassCastException and
a pdf rendition of examples/fo/advanced/cid-fonts.fo is seemingly
generated correctly. I ran all the junit-layout tests and they all passed.

Please try it out (with and without the patch).
But this doesn't fix the SERERE error messages ... I am still learning
FO and don't understand all the layout stuff yet so I'm a little
hesitant to go in and try and fix this myself. The error output "FOText
w/o Block ancestor" resides in this method in org.apache.fop.fo.FObjMixed.

I think there might be some confusion caused by the fo:wrapper though.
If the enclosing <fo:wrapper> is removed or itself enclosed by a <block>
then the renderer generates the pdf.
Wrapper is a neutral object container and should be allowed where
#PCDATA, %block;, or %inline are (see http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/#d0e6532).

Hi,
Please check thoroughly if you have stray FOText in your document, for
example text as direct child of the flow...
Your assumption is almost correct, although it doesn't necessarily mean
'text without block parent', but more general:
If no fo:block is found on the ancestor:: axis, then this message appears.
Cheers,
Andreas
Just tried rendering a pdf using examples/fo/advanced/cid-fonts.fo
on the fop latest trunk (0.93) and got the following exception/errors :-

I have had a look at cid-fonts.fo and couldn't see anything wrong with
the fo (was looking for the SEVERE error which I interpret as a text
child node without a block parent node).
