I'm writing a windows application that allows the user to convert windows
fonts for fop use using TTFReader.

Some fonts like BinnerD have no bold, italic or bolditalic font files,
others have one or more of these combinations.

Where there are specific bold, italic and bold italic files does FOP need to
have access to these or is it enough to convert the normal file and specify
different font-triplets for the same xml file eg

  <font metrics-file="Century Gothic.xml" embed-file="GOTHIC.TTF"
kerning="yes">
  <font-triplet name="Century Gothic" style="normal" weight="normal" />
  <font-triplet name="Century Gothic" style="normal" weight="bold" />
  <font-triplet name="Century Gothic" style="italic" weight="normal" />
  <font-triplet name="Century Gothic" style="italic" weight="bold" />
  </font>

I use this example because Century Gothic has a normal ttf file and also a
bolditalic ttf (but no bold or italic files).

Hope I've explained this clearly enough.

TIA

Mark Williams
