You are using 0.95? Have you tried the Trunk? What renderer are you using? >From my tests with a custom font in 0.95, one renderer recognized it, another needed special coding.

After I removed the metrics file, I stopped getting  related error. It might be possible that the control character got introduced while creating metrics file. I'm now able to generate the PDF file but it does not display Chinese characters. Instead, its showing sequence of # characters wherever chinese characters are expected. This seems to be occurring because PDF is not able to find the supported fonts to display these characters. In my xsl file, I have set font-family attribute to "uming" wherever I want to display chinese characters but the font is not being picked up. I have also tried to install it to my System Library (Macintosh HD -> Library -> Fonts) but all in vain. Can you please guide me the steps to display Chinese characters properly using uming.ttf file (custom font file to display Simplified Chinese Characters). Where should I place this font file or what configuration changes I should do so that font file is correctly picked up.
