RE: [VOTE] Merge Temp_FontMerging to trunk
+1 Thanks, Robert Meyer Date: Fri, 27 Jun 2014 00:12:30 +0100 From: lmpmberna...@gmail.com To: fop-dev@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: Re: [VOTE] Merge Temp_FontMerging to trunk I tested the code with some examples from a weekly newsletter that I receive -- this is a good example because the newsletter is always created using the same template and the same set of fonts (with a few exceptions). The code worked mostly well but the output was not perfect with some of the fonts, where some glyphs were missing of misplaced (causing overlap). So there is still work to be done. Nevertheless, and since the feature is disabled by default, I think there is value in merging this to trunk because it does work in many situations. Besides I don't know if the problem is due to this patch or to PDFBox. Hence +1. Note: I will send the examples directly to Simon.

Re: [VOTE] Merge Temp_FontMerging to trunk
Hi Simon, This branch represents many months of hard work. Merging fonts within separate PDFs is far from a trivial task, and has been requested by almost everyone who uses the PDF Plug-in. Thanks you and well done on bringing the implementation to this point. I downloaded the branch and ran a couple of basic tests, seems ok from a high level. Therefore I am +1 to merge this branch into trunk Thanks, Chris On 20/06/2014 12:23, Simon Steiner wrote: Hi, I have been working on merging fonts inside pdf external graphic using the pdf-plugin.

Re: [VOTE] Merge Temp_FontMerging to trunk
Will there be 'one last release using Java 5’ enabling the most widespread use of the latest FOP development or does this mean that the last version of Java 5 support will be FOP 1.1? Either way, I think this is a great improvement! Great work, Simon! +1 from me.
