Had to scratch a little itch. :-) I hope nobody minds that. Two
advantages:
- we now only have one place (build.xml) where we set the version.
- we hopefully get better feedback what version people are using when
they report a problem.

Same here. If it was the intention of the editors to delete them,  
then it makes no sense at all to add them to the property definitions  
(like I myself suggested, IIRC).


Cheers,

Problem with Eastern european characters

2005-10-21 Thread JAPISoft

Hello,

I'm using FOP and I have the following problem :

I transform a .FO to a PDF but this .FO contains Eastern european 
characters (ISO-8859-2/UTF-8 compatible), when looking at the resulting 
PDF I have
a '#' for each eastern character. If I try another output different of 
PDF, the resulting document is correct.


For remark : The PDF is correct if I use western european characters 
(like ISO-8859-1).


This is as if the PDF font was ignoring my eastern characters. But I 
feel the problem is in the output way, because eastern european 
characters may require two encoding bytes.


When using the (org.apache.fop.apps) Driver class, I have noticed that 
the output must be an OutputStream, so this is not character compatible 
but byte only compatible, it seems unicode cannot be processed correctly ?


How an I process such characters ?

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

A.Brillant

Your feeling isn't quite correct. Check the FAQ:
 http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/faq.html#pdf-characters

the output must be an OutputStream, so this is not character compatible

PDF isn't text, it is a binary format. For details, check the PDF spec.
