Wonderful ! :o) 1- You're right i miss-read the previous post of Andreas and so my previous answer was wrong. Sorry. 2- I was testing this when I receive your post : Sigma = "<fo:block font-family=\"Symbol\">S</fo:block>"; // Print '#'
3- Your script is the good one !! : Sigma = "<fo:inline font-family=\"Symbol\">Σ</fo:inline>"; Thanks a lot Brice Vandeputte -----Message d'origine----- De : William Gilbert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : mardi 29 novembre 2005 18:59 À : [email protected] Objet : Re: RE : [fop-users] [sigma] print greek sigma character on fop 0.20.5 >> I would like to print a sigma character on my generated PDF >> >> I use FOP version 0.20.5 and I can't change this version. > > The Numeric Character References should work, provided the font > you're using has a glyph for the desired character...

A glyph is the way a character is drawn on the screen or on paper. <fo:inline font-family="Symbol">Σ</fo:inline> Now, encoding these in your incoming XML is another trick entirely!! One which I have not entirely mastered but have been successful with. --will gilbert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
