Hi, I switched fop back to fontbox 1.8, so its only the pdfplugin that uses 2.0 and the user would delete 1.8 jar if copying pdfplugin to fop.

And since you’re mentioning it, maybe it’s time to think about making a new release of FOP. Although now that the font merging code has been merged to trunk, and introduces a dependency on FontBox 2.0.0, we would have to wait that FontBox 2.0.0 is released first. Or adapt the code to keep the former 1.8.5 dependency (or the newer 1.8.6 released version). In the meantime, can anybody think of features that should definitely be implemented before the release, or bugs fixed? Remember that due to API changes, that release will have to be called 2.0. Thanks, Vincent
