Jacopo Cappellato commented on OFBIZ-1110:
------------------------------------------

Oleg,

I don't think that your plan (configuring fop out-of-the-box to use/embed an 
open source font able to render a wide range of character sets) is incompatible 
with mine (adding the ability to pass to the fo.ftl template variable to render 
non default font families, page geometries etc...).
The two features can be used both:
1) out of the box the default OFBiz reports should be able to work with as many 
character sets as possible
2) now it's already possible to global change the default properties of all the 
reports in the fop.xconf file
3) adding variable to the screen template action and fo.ftl template will allow 
to configure particular report in a non default way (for example based on 
user's settings/locale etc...); if the variables are not set in the screen (the 
default) then the standard properties from fop.xconf will be applied

> current ofbiz(OOTB) reporting does not support multilingual users. When you 
> use non-english locale you get '#" characters.
> additionally it is hard to track all changes in reports so here default font 
> comes up. 
> it would be great to add fop.xcon file to trunk with UNICODE font that could 
> print any characters in any languages.
> I've made up two another solutions 1) is a property in general.properties 
> that store default font
> 2) to associate font-family name  with locale as property (in property file) 
> and use this font-family to print reports in user language properly.
> with second solution users can define what fonts they have and want to use
