Hi,
Did you ever manage to do this?
I need to do something similar because my embedded FOP is running in a
Webapp and the font metric file and the TTF file are hidden inside the
WEB-INF directory and so the metric-url and embed-url in my fop-config
is no good (even if they were accessible via a URL I don't know the
hostname or context path until runtime)
What would be really nice is someway to pass the fontMetric and TTF file
to the Renderer as InputSource (or InputStream). This way I can get the
font files from the hidden WEB-INF dir using
InputStream fontmetric =
serve.servlet.getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/metric.x
ml");
InputStream embed =
serve.servlet.getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/font.TTF
");
Renderer myRenderer = new PDFRenderer();
FontInfo myFontInfo = new FontInfo();
// method needed ...(ahem)
myFontInfo.addFont("FontName", "FontStyle", "FontWeight", fontmetric,
embed);
myRenderer.setupFontInfo(myFontInfo);
userAgent.setRendererOverride(myRenderer);
Am I on the right track? Has anyone done this (or better) and mind
sharing the code?
Cheers
Karl
