Subject: Re: [VOTE] Merge Temp_FontMerging to trunk


  
    
  
  
    

      

      I tested the code with some examples from a weekly newsletter that
      I receive -- this is a good example because the newsletter is
      always created using the same template and the same set of fonts
      (with a few exceptions).

      

      The code worked mostly well but the output was not perfect with
      some of the fonts, where some glyphs were missing of misplaced
      (causing overlap). So there is still work to be done.
      Nevertheless, and since the feature is disabled by default, I
      think there is value in merging this to trunk because it does work
      in many situations. Besides I don't know if the problem is due to
      this patch or to PDFBox. Hence +1.

      

      Note: I will send the examples directly to Simon.

        Hi,
         
        I have been working on merging fonts inside
          pdf external graphic using the pdf-plugin. The feature is
          disabled by default and can be enabled using fop.xconf:
        <fop version="1.0">
          <renderers>
            <renderer mime="application/pdf">
             
          <merge-fonts>true</merge-fonts>
            </renderer>
          </renderers>
        </fop>
         
        It is using pdfbox 2.0 snapshot which
          requires Java 6 or later so you vote needs to agree to end
          support for Java 5 on trunk.
         
        It is supporting fonts of type CFF,
          Truetype, CID and Type1.
         
        The vote will last 5 working days, ending
          next Friday.
