Hi, i'm using docbook to write a paper (book) and i want to transform it to pdf using xsltproc -> fo -> fop -> pdf. The problem is that i'm using diacritics like ă, î, ş, ţ (romanian language lang="ro" utf-8), but they are not displayed correctly in the pdf version (html and txt are ok). The following problems occur: - Î is displayed in the pdf but not in the text version - ă, ş, ţ are replaced by one # sign.
I think the problem lies with the fonts (none embedded in the pdf) not being able to display Unicode characters (sans family is used from what i saw, and supports only ascii). Can anyone tell me how can i embed (and use) proper fonts? I wold like to use DejaVu or any other font family that supports these letters correctly (using utf-8 character encoding). I'm using Debian GNU/Linux testing (etch) fop 0.25-? (but downloaded 0.93). I can provide the sources if needed (i can't right now, not at home). I'm just starting out so if you can directly me to some nice tutorials on using xml + xsl-fo + how to get romanian language supported in pdf output :) it would be super. p.s. I'm a newbie so please be gentle.
