Hi (2) Alternative source problem: The native charsets are limited to some characters. For example, in the symbol font, normal letters (A to z) are not implemented. If you need to use greek characters, you must use appropriate charcodes (i.e. Α as Alpha to ϖ as omega). I send you attached pdf file that shows the 14 default charsets (helvetica, courrier and times fonts needs 4 charsets each). By Tcho

These 2 special fonts are only available in a normal format (neither bold nor italic). You should check if inherited properties affect thes 2 traits. If this is the source problem, just add appropriate text-decoration="none" and font-weight="normal".

Is it possible you don't have Symbol on *your* system? (Do you get errors when running FOP? Try running FOP with the '-d' debug flag...). Try loading it on another computer. BTW, the definitive source for information is the FOP Fonts page[1]. Web Maestro Clay p.s. It's also possible you 'typed' 'Symbol' incorrectly. I notice that you've misspelled 'Helvetica' and 'Courier'. As for others, there are 14 'base fonts', but they are normal, bold, italic, bold italic variants of Helvetica, Times & Courier, plus Symbol & ZapfDingbats.
