Re: Trouble with ZapfDingbats

[TJ Smith]

Hi
I recently had problems with ZapfDingbats in fop 20.3  The solution is to
use the Unicode for the dingbat you wish to render - I was using:

 <fo:inline font-family="ZapfDingbats">l</fo:inline>
which produced a filled-in circle character in 20.1, but rendered a pair of
scissors in 20.3  The solution is to use:
 <fo:inline font-family="ZapfDingbats">&#x25CF;</fo:inline>
which works fine in 20.3

Hope this helps

TJ
