Hi Thomas,
I put some kyrillic letters in a document and in the resulting PDF-
file they were replaced with #-signs.
Is this just a problem of the used font? FOP supports unicode, am I
right?
FOP indeed supports Unicode --as is required of every XML-
application--, but the standard fonts (Base14) do not have glyphs for
every single character.
The solution is to use a custom font that does contain glyphs for the
characters you use (e.g. 'Arial Unicode' or 'Lucida Sans Unicode'...)
For more info concerning font-embedding and configuration, see:
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.93/configuration.html
or
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.93/fonts.html
P.S.:
My little project with FOP is going on well, I hope to show you
something the next days :-)
Cool! Only thing to keep in mind if you publish it, are font-
licensing issues. To avoid possible problems, it's advisable to look
for a free font, so this issue is sidestepped.
Cheers,
Andreas
