The problem is that the Designers specify it must be HEAVY not BOLD and they have no understanding of the numeric weights.
The designers use light, normal, bold, heavy and black The current FOP only supports normal and bold. I guess I will need to make sure that the fop I use is modded to support the black and heavy as well as light.

If you select the wrong value for the fonts you have loaded it should log a warning for font replacement. Keywords translate to specific numbers. You would want to use the numbers instead of the words to be sure it's always correct. They might think light is 200 but your light font has a weight of 100, or normal 300 / 400 etc. http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/fonts.html#font-boldness Standard keywords are normal (400) and bold (700), and lighter / bolder (relative to parent). _____ From: Theresa Jayne Forster [mailto:ther...@inbrand.co.uk] Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2011 10:46 AM To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: Problems since upgrading, Since upgrading the fop I use from 0.23 to 1.0 I am now getting problems One of which is that the font designations I used to use are now no longer possible, and was wondering why this has seemingly changed, and is there plans to support the method I am used to using? Before <fo:block font-family="Frutiger" font-style="normal" font-weight="heavy"/> Now apparently I need to do weight as a number 700=bold etc Kindest regards Theresa Forster Senior Software Developer _____ No virus found in this message.
