Re: How to find out why fop needs a certain font?
Hi, Yes: FOP uses BATIK to render SVG, witch uses system fonts to render SVG text. And FOP uses fop.xconf to embed fonts in PDF. So you need to declare fonts for SVG in both system and FOP config. 2012/12/21 Alexey Neyman sti...@att.net: Are you saying that the font used in SVG needs to be present both as a system font, even if it is listed in fop.conf?

Re: How to find out why fop needs a certain font?
Yes, I want to understand how FOP treats the fonts in SVG (and, if you know that, how fonts are selected in embedded MathML via JEuclid plugin - we use that, too). We've had some font discrepancies in the past depending on the fonts installed on each developer's machine (in part, because some of the authors are on Windows machines and some are on Linux - so they're likely to have different fonts). Thus, we've decided to do away with using system fonts and use only local fonts (i.e. fonts checked out from the repository along with the document sources).

The machine does not have a 'Times New Roman' system font (it's a Linux machine, it comes with a different set of system fonts by default). But why would FOP need a system font if it has the required font specified in the configuration file? Another question is, would embedding fonts in SVGs prevent FOP from using system fonts?

In the FO I am using, fo:root has a font-family specified, and that font family is described in the fop.cfg. Actually, I traced this warning down to the watermark image specified for the background. However, that SVG does not refer to 'Serif' font, either. Can somebody please explain how does FOP treat the fonts in the included SVG files? I even tried to add a substitution from font-family=Serif to font- family=Times New Roman, it did not help either. Here is the reduced FO file that exhibits the issue: [[[ ?xml version=1.0? fo:root xmlns:fo=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format; font-family=Times New Roman fo:layout-master-set fo:simple-page-master master-name=draft fo:region-body background-image=url(draft.svg)/ /fo:simple-page-master /fo:layout-master-set fo:page-sequence master-reference=draft fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body fo:block/ /fo:flow /fo:page-sequence /fo:root ]]] And here is the draft.svg: [[[ ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 standalone=no? svg xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg; viewBox=80 80 600 600 version=1.1 width=5in height=5in text font-weight=normal xml:space=preserve transform=matrix(0.70710678,-0.70710678,0.70710678,0.70710678,0,0) font-size=250px y=640 x=-315 font-family='Times New Roman' fill=#f2f2f2Draft/text /svg ]]] And fop.cfg: [[[ ?xml version=1.0? fop version=1.0 renderers renderer mime=application/pdf fonts font kerning=yes metrics-url=TimesNewRoman.metric embed- url=TimesNewRoman.ttf font-triplet name=Times New Roman weight=normal style=normal/ /font /fonts /renderer /renderers /fop ]]] Regards, Alexey.
