Hi Andreas,
Thanks for your patience! :-)
Taking into account what you said, I did the following test:
1) In my customization area, I added:
<xsl:param name="symbol.font.family">ZapfDingbats</xsl:param>
2) Installed ZapfDingbats font on my system and registered it in fop conf:
<font-triplet name="ZapfDingbats" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
<font-triplet name="ZapfDingbats" style="italic" weight="normal"/>
<font-triplet name="ZapfDingbats" style="italic" weight="bold"/>
3) Compiled the PDF (XML file with
<listitem>
<ZapfDingbats symbol code> <space> <phone number>
</listitem>
...
And nothing happened - I still get #. I am close to tears ;-(.
Best regards,
Nancy
