Hello.

I have a FO document that contains some symbols like ∀.  Nothing that's
not covered by a font in the Base-14 (like Symbol).

When I send this document through FOP to generate PDF output I get the
'#' characters showing up, accompanied by the following output:

30-Aug-2008 6:45:31 AM org.apache.fop.fonts.FontInfo
notifyFontReplacement
WARNING: Font 'Symbol,normal,700' not found. Substituting with
'Symbol,normal,400'.
30-Aug-2008 6:45:31 AM org.apache.fop.fonts.FontInfo
notifyFontReplacement
WARNING: Font 'ZapfDingbats,normal,700' not found. Substituting with
'ZapfDingbats,normal,400'.
30-Aug-2008 6:45:31 AM org.apache.fop.hyphenation.Hyphenator
getHyphenationTree
SEVERE: Couldn't find hyphenation pattern en


The expected behaviour is that the symbols (like ∀) would be put in the
PDF and marked as coming from 'Symbol'.

I'm on Ubuntu and I don't have fonts called "Symbol" or "ZapfDingbats"
installed.

I've searched for information about this problem and I've found a page
about FOP fonts and some mailing list archives.  The two things that
I've discovered are:

 - You need font metrics so FOP knows how to space stuff out[1].

 - For the Base-14 you shouldn't need font metrics because they're 
   already built-in[2].

This isn't consistent with the results that I'm encountering...

Can anyone explain to me what's going on here?

Cheers
