And my bad too: FOP-1.0 compiled from source of official release circa 2012-03-01.

You are correct in that I'm working off of FopFactory, but my debugger takes me to the same setFontBaseURL(String) you list so I'm not sure switching to FontManager would change anything. (It will take a moderate effort to switch this: the "long story" is that we still use older versions of fop (including to 0.20-5 I'm sorry to say) so that's why I'm using reflection (and classloader shenanigans to boot).

I have not looked at recent releases for any fixes in this area. I actually expected a flood of "your doing it wrong, do this instead"....

Hi Rob,

Ooohh, my bad. I must have misunderstood your concern. This is an interesting little problem, the only thing I can think if is that the FopFactory overrides the FontManager.setFontBaseURL(...) method:

         this.fontManager = new FontManager() {

             /** {@inheritDoc} */
             @Override
             public void setFontBaseURL(String fontBase) throws 
MalformedURLException {
                 
super.setFontBaseURL(getFOURIResolver().checkBaseURL(fontBase));
             }

         };
But then, you're calling the "setFontBaseURL(...)" method on FopFactory and not FontManager, so I don't know, maybe someone else may have an idea. But could you give us all the usuals, what version of FOP you're using? Have you tried seeing if trunk has the same issue etc...

    Thanks Mehdi, looking forward to the API change.

    But I'm not sending ".../acres install/...", rather (I believe)
    I'm sending ".../acres%20install/..." as the string URL.  Is that
    not the correct format?

    Hi Rob,

    Firstly, we are working to change how fop handles file access and
    I/O in general. I should note, that we're unifying all resource
    acquisition to resolving URIs, not URLs. The two concepts differ,
    and it's non-trivial.

    See http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/URIResolution and
    http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/FopFactoryConfiguration.

    Secondly, there are some misnomers in the names of these resource
    finders. The issue you're seeing is that "/d1/rework/acres
    install/ac47/eclipe/plugins" while it is a valid URL, it is not a
    valid URI. The FopFactory.setFontBaseURL(...) method delegates to
    the FOURIResolver to validate the String given and parses it as a
    URL NOT a URL. That is why you're seeing this problem.

        Seems to me FopFactory.setFontBaseURL(String s) is broken?

        Forgive the reflection calls (long story).

            File fontsdir = new File(bundlePath + fopHome + "/fonts");

            URL fontsURL = fontsdir.toURI().toURL();
            setFontBaseURLMethod.invoke(fopFactory,
        fontsURL.toExternalForm());

        works fine when the directory is, shall we say, normal, but
        if the directory has a space the method appears to eat the "%20".

        Caused by: java.net.MalformedURLException: Illegal character
        in path at index 23: file:///d1/rework/acres
        
install/ac47/eclipse/plugins/com.amirsys.console_4.6.0/fop/fop100/fop/fonts/


        bundlePath=/d1/rework/acres install/ac47/eclipe/plugins
        fopHome=com.amirsys.console_4.6.0/fop/fop100/fop

        I've written a test jig to see what File.toURI().toURL() does:

            import java.net.URL;
            import java.io.File;

            public class FileURL {

                public static void main(String[] args) {
                    try {
                        File f = new File(args[0]);
                        URL furl = f.toURI().toURL();
                        System.out.println(furl.toString());
                        System.out.println(furl.toExternalForm());
                    }
                    catch (java.net.MalformedURLException mue) {
                        mue.printStackTrace();
                    }
                }
            }

        And that reports what I expected, an encoded path:

            java -cp . FileURL /d1/rework/acres\ install/ac47
            file:/d1/rework/acres%20install/ac47/
            file:/d1/rework/acres%20install/ac47/


        I hope someone has a better plan.

        I do think that the FOP api should be changed to take a URL
        rather than a string, but that's for another day.
