Hi,
This is not really what I am trying to achieve. I know that I can handle special characters using the ZapfDingbats font. However what I don't know to do is parse a text content to encapsulate <fo:inline> element each time such a special character is found.
So tranforming:
"Some text â More text"
To:
<fo:inline font-family="Helvetica"> Some text <fo:inline font-family="ZapfDingbats">â</fo:inline> More text </fo:inline>

I need to display in a pdf file some text that contains different type of characters: some are ascii type but other are special ones like the 'star' or 'square' characters. I understand from what I have read that those special characters are not available in the default Helvetica or Courier base font and that I need to use the ZapfDingbats font.
So what I need to achieve is transform the following XML content:
"Some text âË More text"
Into:
<fo:inline font-family="Helvetica"> Some text <fo:inline font-family="ZapfDingbats">âË</fo:inline> More text </fo:inline>
How can this be done using XSL to create the proper FO document knowing
that I don't know in advance what the text to translate looks like and
how many 'special' characters it contains (ex 'asdfâËasâÂdfâËasâÂdâËâÆfasdâË')
Thanks for any tips!
