It's more an issue with FOP in my opinion. So let's hope for you two that someone will eventually add this missing feature. Did I say that the source code of FOP is available? :-)
So there is a feature in PDF to store the actual content as UTF-8 without the font embedded, and to tell the PDF viewer to use whatever fonts it can find to render the document? Because that's what we really need to solve the problem. Particularly in our system, we can't guarantee that the person generating the PDF has the same fonts as the person reading it. And worse, we can't even guarantee that the person generating it has ARIALUNI.TTF (as it's not freely redistributable.) So embedding fonts in any fashion doesn't solve the problem, and neither does font substitution at the time of generation. I was thinking that the lack of font substitution at the time of rendering was more of an issue with PDF, but if you say it's an issue with FOP then I'll take your word for it because I don't know PDF well at all, just its damage to society. :-) Daniel -- Daniel Noll NUIX Pty Ltd Level 8, 143 York Street, Sydney 2000 Phone: (02) 9283 9010 Fax: (02) 9283 9020 This message is intended only for the named recipient.
