RE: font question
What is involved in creating a metrics file for "bold" if the font itself does not contain bold glyphs. Are there any tools that I could use? What I'm trying to accomplish is to display Japanese and Chinese text in bold and italic using licensing-free fonts. I've tried "Arial Unicode", "MSMincho" and "SimSun", but they all seem to only contain regular style glyphs.

What am I missing? Your assumption is incorrect. Microsoft fonts generally do not have bold glyphs in them because their software (inc Word and IE) compute the bold glyphs on the fly. FOP does not attempt to do this. In order to get bold fonts working in FOP you will need to generate two sets of metrics for the same Font, and add two entries in your userconfig.xml.

Re: url port 8080
Now I understand your question! The answer: No, you have to specify the port number. If you look at the http spec[1], and search on "80", you'll see a few places where it specifies that if you do *not* specify the port number, it defaults/must be taken as 80 for http.

font question
I would like to use the "Arial Unicode MS Font" as an embedded font using FOP, but I found that the generated PDF file does not display text that is bolded, despite the fact that the font-weight is set to bold in the FO file. Since the same font displays bolded text correctly in a web browser, I'm assuming that it does contains bold glyphs. What am I missing?

I suspect that the best course of action is to follow the instructions on the FOP Hyphenation page[1] to convert TeX hyphenation patterns. The FOP developers sincerely regret that the hyphenation patterns had to be removed. If you have problems with the conversion, please don't hesitate to ask for help on this list. http://xml.apache.org/fop/hyphenation.html Good luck!
