Thanks Andreas,
I got a brief and vague response on the users group that left me
wanting more information. Whether or not I could contribute to a
potential solution, and that is a possibility, would depend on
whether the work involved would be major or minor. So I am trying to
get some sense.
I would imagine that support for additional fonts beyond the Base14
would be pretty fundamental to PDF formatting and therefore if it
isn't fully implemented there must be a pretty good reason. But if
there is not much that needs to be done and it's just waiting for
someone with some motivation to do it, that would be interesting to
know.
Thanks,
Loran Kary

Hi
Perhaps I am posting this question on the wrong list or perhaps my
question has been asked and answered before.
The latter, in a way...
You asked the same question on fop-users a couple of days ago,
where the response was that FOP currently does not yet support this
feature.
On the other hand, if you re-posted on fop-dev because you are
interested in contributing to a potential solution, then you are in
the right place.
Personally, I have not enough insight in the related parts of the
FOP-code and the PDF-spec to help you with that, but I'm definitely
hoping someone could chime in soon to offer a few ideas on how this
can be solved. Just don't forget that it's holiday season in the
northern hemisphere. It may take a few days for the right person to
pick up...
Cheers
Andreas
