Hi,

I am using FOP Trunk to generate PDF:s and AFP:s. The idea is to generate the
FO-file from an XSL stylesheet and an XML and then generate the PDF. After the
PDF is generated, custom afp-extension tags will be added to the FO-file and an
AFP-file will be generated from the modified FO-file. The XSL-stylesheet
contains conditional texts and dynamic data. This means that a lot of different
<fo:inline> tags are created. This is not an issue with the PDF-output format,
however when I render an AFP, it is. When generating AFP-files the last few
characters of the previous inline-text are overwritten. This doesn't happen
every time, but always for dynamic data and conditional texts.

I have created my own raster fonts for the AFP file generation. I recall an old
(about a year old) mail-thread involving Jeremias discussing using fonts not
included in the base-14 set included in FOP. Therefore, I have tried to generate
the file below using standard base-14 config and my custom config. The result is
the same.

In the above example the last inline-tag (with text starting with S) produces
the error when generating AFP. PDF is fine.

<fo:block text-align="center"> fixes the issue for this specific file. However,
i need left aligned texts

To omit the font-size or using a table to set the font-size also seems to fix
the trouble. This is however hard to do, since we are using a stylesheet tool
and not programming the XSL:s directly.

Questions:
1. Is this a known issue with the AFP-renderer?
2. Could it be a bug with the font-loaders? I haven't had time to check the
code, but I will do. Since the issue seems to be less recurring when setting a
"global" font name and size, could it have to do with this?
3. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there any nice workaround?
