Thanks for all your help. I'm not sure what the problem is either. I
followed the fop-user and fop-dev threads, and didn't notice anything
that would cause a problem. Jay suggested I try loading the font's but I
don't see that I should have to, as it is a base font mentioned on the
fonts page in the documentation.
I'm going to try the unicode example of TJ's when I get a chance (bloody
deadlines). Maybe I can get rid of those scissors as well. My source XML
uses a 'windows-1252' encoding so hopefully this doesn't affect the
unicode value (I'm really dumb when talking about encodings). This
encoding only works when I add xercesImpl.jar to the CLASSPATH. I tried
changing the encodings and removing the latest erces archive , but had
no joy.
For now I've rolled back to the first release candidate of Fop 20.3
(Fop-0.20.3rc), which works as it did in the previous releases. Is there
anything in this release that I should be aware of? I could have stayed
with the previous release of Fop 20.2, but I had to change because the
XSL spec had changed (master-name master-reference).
FWIW I tried posting this to fop-dev as well but it doesn't seem to have
made it there. Hopefully there are enough developers looking at this
list (Keiron?). I've also set up a test with other fonts and saw that
Symbol was also effected. If you want this test suite I'll happily send
it.
Cheers
Tim

Hi
I recently had problems with ZapfDingbats in fop 20.3 The solution is
to
use the Unicode for the dingbat you wish to render - I was using:
fo:inline font-family=ZapfDingbatsl/fo:inline
which produced a filled-in circle character in 20.1, but rendered a pair
of
scissors in 20.3 The solution is to use:
fo:inline font-family=ZapfDingbats#x25CF;/fo:inline
which works fine in 20.3
Hope this helps
TJ

I'm not sure what the problem is that you are having but ZapfDingbats
works fine for me both on unix and windows NT.

recognise the font.
Is anyone else experiencing the same problems? Is this a known
problem?
Am I missing something? Should I rollback to a previous version?
Any help would be appreciated.
