I'll ask again, what renderer are you using?
Problems can't be solved when the one having the problem fails to
provide requested information.
Hi, sorry, being a newbie I didn't understand your question very well.
I'm just using the combination of JAXP and FOP APIs to generate PDF
files for my application.
I will however try using setFontBaseURL method as suggested by you and
revert back if issue persists.

I actually did create an xml metrics file..
When I added my custom font to the PDFRenderer, I used the setFontList
method using the TTFFontLoader class, which required the EmbedFontInfo
class which requires a metrics file. It didn't seem to recognize the
font from the path.
When I added my custom font to the AWTRenderer, I just added the
path to
the file in the setFontBaseURL method.
I don't remember which method if any works for the direct
PrintRenderer,
since I haven't solved the issue of telling it which network printer
to
send to. Until I figure that out, the direct print option is creating
and opening a PDF for the user to print manually.
I haven't tested the Trunk version yet to see if there are solutions
for
the issues I've had.

Yes, I'm using FOP 0.95.
Can you please let me know the special encoding required and also
how we
can make xslt pick the font file without using metrics file.

From my tests with a custom font in 0.95, one renderer recognized it,
another needed special coding.

This () is not a Chinese character, it's a control character
(see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_Out ). It's either a wrong input
file, which means that the file should be checked so that no control
characters are present, or the file is read using the wrong
encoding.
With FOP 0.95 you don't need to generate metrics files anymore, just
use the font file directly.
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.
Thanks & Regards,
