Arabic text being 'transformed' into something that looks Arabic but is not exactly the same as what I put in
Hi all, I recently received a ticket from an Arabic client that text being transformed using FOP was not quite the same as the input was. So I made a testproject and this is the XSL I'm putting into FOP: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?fo:root xmlns:fo=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format; fo:layout-master-set fo:simple-page-master master-name=MyPage page-height=11.693in page-width=8.268in fo:region-body margin-bottom=0.5in margin-left=0.5in margin-right=0.5in margin-top=0.5in/ fo:region-before display-align=before extent=0.5in region-name=xsl-region-before/ fo:region-after display-align=after extent=0.5in region-name=xsl-region-after/ fo:region-start extent=0.5in/ fo:region-end extent=0.5in/ /fo:simple-page-master /fo:layout-master-set fo:page-sequence master-reference=MyPage fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body fo:block color=#00 font-family=tahoma font-size=10pt font-style=normal font-weight=normal fo:block fo:table border-collapse=separate border-spacing=0pt padding=0pt table-layout=fixed text-align=left width=100% fo:table-column column-width=50%/ fo:table-column column-width=50%/ fo:table-body fo:table-row fo:table-cell display-align=before text-align=left fo:block white-space-collapse=false wrap-option=wrap fo:block linefeed-treatment=preserve white-space-collapse=false wrap-option=wrapعربي/fo:block /fo:block /fo:table-cell fo:table-cell display-align=before text-align=left fo:block white-space-collapse=false wrap-option=wrap/ /fo:table-cell /fo:table-row fo:table-row fo:table-cell display-align=before text-align=left fo:block white-space-collapse=false wrap-option=wrap fo:block linefeed-treatment=preserve white-space-collapse=false wrap-option=wrapعربي/fo:block /fo:block /fo:table-cell fo:table-cell display-align=before text-align=left fo:block white-space-collapse=false wrap-option=wrap/ /fo:table-cell /fo:table-row /fo:table-body /fo:table /fo:block fo:block id=terminator/ /fo:block /fo:flow /fo:page-sequence /fo:root (Apologies for the overly long XSL, this is being generated) Notice the Arabic text in 2 of the cells (I don't know what the word means btw) I'm using Tahoma which is capable of showing these characters, and this font has been put into the font options. font kerning=yes embed-url=tahoma.ttf font-triplet name=tahoma style=normal weight=normal/ font-triplet name=tahomaMT style=normal weight=normal/ /font I used other fonts this way and this does not seem to be the problem anyway. Also, using rl-tb instead of lr-tb does not solve the issue, it only does what you would expect, reverse the text. The result looks like this: يبرع يبرع Which certainly looks Arabic but is not quite the same as what I put in. If I use another library (XFC) to transform the XSL to Word, it does show the Arabic text correctly. Would be appreciated if anyone could help me out here.

RE: Arabic text being 'transformed' into something that looks Arabic but is not exactly the same as what I put in
Thanks, I'll look around a bit to see if I can get this to work. Will this be integrated into FOP at some point? Any timeline that you know of?

Double spaces are removed in PDF generation
Hello all, I've generated an FO file based on XHTML using AntennaHouse's XSLT. My source XHTML has a line of text with a postal code, 2 spaces and then a city name. This is a block from the generated FO file: fo:block role=html:div fo:inline role=html:span1000AA Rotterdam/fo:inline fo:block role=html:br/ /fo:block Now I use this FO file to generate a PDF file with FOP. However, in the generated PDF the 2 spaces are transformed into a single space. This is while using the latest 1.0 release of FOP. I'd like to keep the 2 spaces in the generated PDF document. Does anyone know how to solve this issue? Kind regards, Bas van den Broek - Research Development
RE: want to catch missing font warnings
Just replying to 2 people at once here since I don't want to clutter the mailing list. Sounds good, is this version scheduled for release though? Or is the trunk stable enough to use in production? -Original Message- From: Jeremias Maerki [mailto:d...@jeremias-maerki.ch] Sent: dinsdag 29 juni 2010 9:41 To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: Re: want to catch missing font warnings FOP Trunk contains an event framework that lets you do that with an event listener. Please see: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/events.html Thanks, I may do that as a temporary solution. The font is user-specified by the way, so I don't know why it would be missing, but I do want the user to know with a real exception. -Original Message- From: Eric Douglas [mailto:edoug...@blockhouse.com] Sent: maandag 28 juni 2010 20:42 To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: RE: want to catch missing font warnings It's passing out a message using org.apache.commons.logging.Log.warn(). If you can't get that method to throw out an error, you can just download the fop source, change the font method, and recompile. The message is in org.apache.fop.fonts.FontInfo.notifyFontReplacement(). Have you gotten it to find the font? Why then wouldn't the font be found? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org
want to catch missing font warnings
Hi all, I am using FOP 0.95 and my fo file contains an unknown font to the library. This is the warning I get: WARNING: Font 'fakefont,normal,400' not found. Substituting with 'any,normal,400'. I would like to be able to catch this warning 'cause in my case I don't want to continue if a font cannot be found. Is there a way to do this? I could not find this in the documentation.
