             Summary: Soft font support for TrueType fonts in PCL
                 Key: FOP-2486
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2486
             Project: FOP
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: renderer/pcl
    Affects Versions: trunk
            Reporter: Robert Meyer
             Fix For: trunk


Currently all fonts (except a limited set of native fonts) are rastered for PCL 
output. This has the problem of the documents being large in size and should 
FOP be used in the cloud, rendering to PCL would not be possible as it's using 
AWT.

This patch in part resolves this problem by converting TrueType fonts to PCL 
soft fonts. This allows the size to be much smaller and has been a standard 
feature since PCL 5.
