Title: RE: Symbol font and postscript files





Claes:


There is a couple of things you can do:


1)The font has to be installed on the printer. The PS renderer in FOP does not embedd the the font in the same maner that the PDF renderer does. The ps renderer will infact make a "reference", for lack of a better term, to the font in the PS file . If the font is installed on the printer when the file is printed the font will be used in printing.

2) you can use ghost script to convert you pdf to ps after you have rendered the pdf document.

Subject: Symbol font and postscript files



Hi! Sorry for cross posting this subject to XSL-FO
Mailing List at YahooGroups. 


Here is my question again: 
We are having trouble getting a complete postscript
file out of FOP. 
The text renders correctly but the symbol font used
for bullet-lists is not shown.
We are using hexcode "•" to get the bullet and everything seems fine when we transform the file directly to pdf from FOP. Although when transforming to postscript and then using Acrobat Distiller to get a pdf from the postscript file the bullet disappears.

Unfortunately the print-shop requires a postscript to
rip the file for printing so we are stuck getting the postscript file correct. Is this a known a problem?? Would be grateful for any help or tips regarding this matter.

Snippet from the fo-file:
  
18-1168-99 *
font-family="Times">  p 



We are using fop 0.20.5rc3a and include type 1 fonts
via userconfig.xml


Best regards,
Claes

We're going the opposite route.  We generate a PDF from FO, then convert it
to postscript.  We're using Neevia to automate the process.
