Hi Manoj,
Thanks for your help.
I really need to re-build "fop.jar", because my web application uses it
standalone and I don't have code access.
I think I really should configure something in the "build.xml" of FOP.
Something like:
<property name="ttfcomic.xml" value="${build.codegen}/ttfcomic.xml"/>I need to know, what and how do I need to configure?

These are the points I have learned in process. 1) Open the ttfcomic.xml and see whats the name given in the <font-name> tag? This name should match the "ComicSansMS" as you have given in font-triplet tag in the userconfig.xml 2) I would advice for time being to hardcode the complete path to ttfcomic.xml as <font metrics-file="c:\dir\ttfcomic.xml" just like you did for the embed-file 3) No need to change build.xml 4) No need to recompile fop.jar 5) You need to load the fonts by invoking the configuration before your parse XML --> PDF. How are you doing the xml to pdf ? I am using the XSLTInputHandler(xml,xsl) in a servlet or are u running it from command prompt ? 6) I came to know today that I need to manually change the XSL file ( which i had created using XMLSPY) to refer to the font explicitly using the font-family tag. (courtsey of Lou ) <fo:block font-family="ComicSansMS" font-weight="bold" padding-bottom="1mm"> 经营单位 </fo:block> Let me know Manoj <[EMAIL PROTECTED] wareag.com> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: 2005/02/04 08:32 Subject: Fonts in FOP Please respond to fop-user Hello, I need to include a new font in FOP. I already generate a new xml file of the font "comic.ttf" (ttfcomic.xml), and in the "userconfig.xml" added the new font. <font metrics-file="ttfcomic.xml" kerning="yes" embed-file="c:\windows\fonts\comic.ttf"> <font-triplet name="ComicSansMS" style="normal" weight="normal"/> </font> To recompile the "fop.jar", what is necessary to configure? Is it necessary anything else in the "build.xml" of FOP? And where should I put the new "ttfcomic.xml" file for the new font? Is it in "/src/codegen"? Next in the XSL-FO, how can I refer the new font? The font name should be "ComicSansMS" like refer above or the name of the font file? font-style="ComicSansMS" Thanks in advance. Best regards.
