font problem in fop generated pcl file
Hi guys. I have an interesting problem that I hope you can help with. I am trying to get the font Garamond printed on my pcl output. When I use pdf as the output the font is on the pdf document. But when I use -pcl as the output, there is no Garamond font there. The following are excerps from the userconfig file, the command line argument I use to generate the pcl, and output printlines from fop. !-- userconfig -- fonts font metrics-file=file://c:/java/investec/conf/gara.xml kerning=yes embed-file=file:///c:/windows/fonts/GARA.TTF font-triplet name=Garamond style=normal weight=normal/ /font font metrics-file=file://c:/java/investec/conf/garab.xml kerning=yes embed-file=file:///c:/windows/fonts/GARABD.TTF font-triplet name=Garamond style=normal weight=bold/ /font /fonts !-- command line arguments -- fop -c c:\java\investec\conf\userconfig.xml -xml c:\1.xml -xsl c:\1.xsl -pcl c:\1.pcl !-- fop output -- C:\fop\fop-0.20.4java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\batik.jar;lib\xalan-2.3.1.jar;lib\xercesImpl-2.0.1.jar;lib \xml-apis.jar;lib \avalon-framework-cvs-20020315.jar;lib\logkit-1.0.jar;lib\jimi-1.0.jar org.apache.fop.apps.Fop -c c:\java\investec\conf\ userconfig.xml -xml c:\1.xml -xsl c:\1.xsl -pcl c:\1.pcl [INFO] FOP @version@ [INFO] building formatting object tree [INFO] rendering areas to PCL [INFO] [1] [INFO] [2] [INFO] [3] [INFO] [4] [INFO] Parsing of document complete, stopping renderer [INFO] writing out PCL When I output to -pdf, The fop printlines are exactly the same.

The following are excerps from the userconfig file, the command line argument I use to generate the pcl, and output printlines from fop. This is a question for fop-user, but: you embed a TrueType font into you PDF file. The PCL (and PostScript as well) output of FOP do not implement font embedding, TrueType format or not. So, for this to work, you'd have to download the Garamond font to your PCL printer prior to printing the PCL file produced by FOP. How you do this and in which format (I don't really know PCL 6, but in old PCL, you cannot use TrueType fonts) is up to you (and your actual printer), unfortunately. You don't get a different log output, because FOP cannot look into your printer and therefore cannot see whether the Garamond font is there. So it assumes everything is ok and doesn't log an error.

Help! About font problem.
In order to resolve the display ... problem, I embed a truetype font by setting up userconfig.xml and call new Option in program. So, the PDF file created by FOP can show the foreign words correctly. But at this time, there are some unbreak text block displaying out of the body region. Somebody help me please. Regards Jesse. _ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.

Without seeing an example I understand nothing from your explanation. Provide a small fo snippet, which illustrates your problem.

The problem was due to the fonts being added to the reasources after each page. It is now added at the end, in stopRenderer. This also caused the npe that you were experiencing (I'm not sure how, something to do with setting characters as used) I'm not sure about the problem letters, I couldn't get the font file. Maybe someone else can check if this is still a problem. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Font problem
Hello, I noticed that the character quote ' is not changed in Times Roman and in Courrier font in the PDF of FOP whereas this character is different in WORD when you change the font.
