Unkown font error driving me crazy
Hi Everyone, I have searched in vain, but found the search difficult. I have a third party appplication that I'm using that calls this batch file, @ECHO OFF rem %~dp0 is the expanded pathname of the current script under NTset LOCAL_FOP_HOME=if "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" set LOCAL_FOP_HOME=%~dp0 set LIBDIR=%LOCAL_FOP_HOME%libset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCAL_FOP_HOME%build\fop.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\xml-apis.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\xercesImpl-2.2.1.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\xalan-2.4.1.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\batik.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\avalon-framework-cvs-20020806.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\jimi-1.0.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\jai_core.jarset LOCALCLASSPATH=%LOCALCLASSPATH%;%LIBDIR%\jai_codec.jarjava -cp "%LOCALCLASSPATH%" org.apache.fop.apps.Fop %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 I have added several new fonts to my system and I'm attempting to use the userconfig.xml file as shown below:font> font> font> fonts> configuration> but everytime i run the xsl:fo I get an error that the font is unkown, so it appears that this userconfig file is not being called and I don't understand what I need to do to call it.

One of these situations, my lack of practice with the english language shows up. I *absolutely need* it to be repeated.

Imagine having to deal with a situation like this and having to base your calculations on the metrics of the particular font being used.

> -Original Message- > From: Roland Neilands [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Roland, > > Use nested tables: That is what i tried yesterday, too. Thanks anyway. It's a solution to get the image in the first header of the table. But i still end up with the problem having it repeated after a page break. The text header will be repeated as there is data in its table-body being continued after the page break. But there is no data in the table-body that belongs to the image header so there is no reason for FOP to repeat the header (the image) on the next page. And with this problem in mind i come to the idea of Andreas. > - Original Message - > From: "Andreas L.

There occur line breaks in the rows (mostly generated within FOP caused by hyphenation), that i cannot calculate that easy.

I agree. I think i will try to get some other things working first and come back to this one next week.
