Re: PDF generation

[Darren Petrie]

Make sure you use a Unicode font for the XSL-FO processing if you don't 
want to be surprised by missing characters.  The default FOP fonts gave 
me problems.  You probably want to create a font metric file and 
register it with FOP.  I settled on Verdana TTF for my use and it has 
worked well.

Check out http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html for more info on 
registering fonts.

I have problems with generating pdf documents with national 
characters. I'm using XSL-FO transformer to turn xml data into 
document. Input xml is correctly written in UTF-8, but output pdf 
contains #'s instead some of national characters.

PDF documents references fonts in Ansi encoding, so I suspect I have 
to force XSL-FO to use Unicode encoding. Can anyone point me how to do 
it?

I'm not sure whether this problem is related to XSF-FO or Cocoon pdf 
transformer/serializer.
