Got it!!
It was not the embed-file attribute, but the metrics-file attribute itself.
Although I'm quite sure to have tried all numbers of slashes and
backslashes, it is finally ok with:
<font
metrics-file="file:///D:/Programme/Tomcat-5.5/webapps/pdfnewsletter/WEB-INF/
fonts/font1.xml" kerning="yes"
embed-file="E:/sonja/projekte/mainovaJ5/etc/fonts/Ss______.ttf">
<font-triplet name="customFont" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</font>
Perhaps something was overwritten, as the attribute values are inserted via
ant location properties ....
Sorry for all the mailing and happy fopping !
