This is just a guess, but is kerning turned on in Word? I suspect it isn't.
Eric Amick Legislative Computer Systems Office of the Clerk -----Original Message----- From: Rakesh Kumar S [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2008 6:40 To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: Character spacing problems I'm using Arial font in FOP and when I render it to PDF with a specific font type and size (bold, size 12 pt) and I do the same with Microsoft word and print both. It is exact same line and same font etc. The Microsoft version of it is longer (when I overlay and compare) than the FOP version even though both are using the same fonts? Somehow the spacing of the characters/words seems to be different in FOP than with word. Is this a known issue? Can this be corrected? This is causing some inconsistency between 2 formats namely word and PDF. Please help. -- I found this post earlier, i am also facing the same problem. What is the solution to this problem???? **************** CAUTION - Disclaimer ***************** This e-mail contains PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
