Hello all,
I've been chasing an issue with FOP for a little while and hit a bit of
a wall.
I've added a new font to the list of fonts we can use when rendering a
PDF. However no matter what character I enter, FOP gives me an error for every
single letter. For example, with the letter E it says 'WARNING: Glyph "e"
(0x65, e) not available in font "Code128".'
There are lots of posts where people are trying to pass in non-english
language, but in this case I'm passing in standard roman letters and numbers.
Nothing fancy.
In searching this error message I've found the recommendation to add
the font to fop.xconf as described here:
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/fonts.html#truetype-collections-metrics
but I still get the error.
The font I'm trying to get working here is a bar code font I downloaded
from this site: http://www.jtbarton.com/Barcodes/Code128.aspx and I've opened
up the font with a true type editor. There's nothing unusual there. Just a
pretty standard font and looking at the character map, I can see an entry for
0x65 that matches correctly and looks just like any other font. So I'm really
at a loss. Any suggestions where to look next?
Also, just an fyi, I know there's the option to add Barcode4j as an
extension to FOP. However since I'm using a system that has FOP embedded into
it, it's impossible for us to add any extensions to FOP. I've been down that
road with the vendor and we're stuck with using a barcode font and manually
calculating the checksum.
Thank you,
