Yes a lot easier than I thought! But with this I encountered another
problem!
my XML looks like this: <para>☐ Test text</para>
if I apply the font-family="ZapfDingbats" then all the para text is
displayed in this font-family. It it possible to set up an optional
font-display it the character isn't available in the primary
font-family?
Now you're back on the track I was on a few months ago, wishing that FOP
could automatically substitute fonts when a character isn't found in the
specified font (Java's font substitution already works in Java2D when
you draw strings, if only it could be used directly for this. ;-))
We got around our issue by using Arial Unicode MS, but I can't guarantee
if that particular font also has the symbols in it (we used it in order
to support CJK and Latin text in the same document without getting
bad-looking Latin text.)
The irritating thing about Arial Unicode MS though, is that it's hard to
find (MS took it down from their font download pages, so it only
officially comes with some versions of Office now) and it's not freely
redistributable.
