I have never had a problem with losing default fonts when I add my custom
fonts in the manner described (if I am wrong I am certain I will be
corrected).
As an alternative, you can add the font to your userconfig.xml file, in the
"fonts" section:
<fonts>
<font metrics-file="fre3of9x.xml" embed-file="fre3of9x.ttf"
kerning="yes">
<font-triplet name="BarCode" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
<font-triplet name="BarCode" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
<font-triplet name="BarCode" style="italic" weight="normal"/>
<font-triplet name="BarCode" style="italic" weight="bold"/>
</font>
</fonts>

Thanks for your answer... but I have got a question:
Do I overwrite the rest of the fonts (the deafult fonts, I mean...) with
the
line "Configuration.put("fonts", allFonts);"?
Thanks again!

It looks like you have the font file ready to go. To get a barcode in the
PDF, I did the following:
1. First, here is some sample java code to configure the fonts (you would
probably want to do this dynamically (read better):
Vector allFonts = new Vector();//you may have more than one
Vector allTrips = new Vector();
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet("fre3of9x","normal","normal"));
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet("fre3of9x","bold","normal"));
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet("fre3of9x","normal","italic"));
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet("fre3of9x","bold","italic"));
FontInfo fontInfo = new FontInfo("3OF9X","/fonts/fre3of9x.xml"
,true,allTrips,"/fonts/fre3of9x.ttf");//sample font
allFonts.add(fontInfo);
Configuration.put("fonts", allFonts);
2. Next, create a text block that uses your barcode font family:
<fo:block font-size="10pt" color="black" font-family="fre3of9x">
112233
</fo:block>
This works for me.

Hi there!
I have the following method in a Servlet that helps me to output pdf files:
private ByteArrayOutputStream transform(Source xmlSrc, Source xslSrc)
throws TransformerConfigurationException, TransformerException
{
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
org.apache.fop.configuration.Configuration.put("baseDir",
BASE_DIR);
Driver driver = new Driver();
Logger logger = new Log4JLogger(log4j);
MessageHandler.setScreenLogger(logger);
driver.setLogger(logger);
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.setOutputStream(out);
TransformerFactory transformerFactory =
TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer =
transformerFactory.newTransformer(xslSrc);
Result res = new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler());
transformer.transform(xmlSrc, res);
return out;
}
The problem is that right now I need to generate some bar codes in my pdfs
and I have think to embed a ttf font in my pdfs that I can use to generate
those barcodes. I have the ttf font file and the xml font metrics file but
right now I don“t know what must I add to the code to be able to use this
font in my pdfs... can you help me?
Thanks a lot!!
