Hi,
Just noticed that FOP detects what font is needed based on the first letter of
the word. For example if the sequence of letters was used "N⇒Y" then FOP would
by default use the Helvetica font resulting in "N#Y". If I wanted it to display
correctly I would need to place an inline element round the ⇒ symbol specifying
the Symbol font family.
The only problem is that I can’t easily place an inline element round
characters since XALAN only supports XSLT 1.0 and character maps are only
available in version 2.0.
Unless if anyone has any better ideas for how I could place inline elements
round particular characters I was wondering if any one knows how much of a
performance hit FOP would take if a character by character analysis for font
detection was used. Also if it was something easy I might try patching it
myself.
Thanks,
Graeme
