Re: fop 0.20.5 and chinese pdf
Actually, there is a FOP Serializer in Cocoon that is compatible with FOP 0.93 but I think there's no Cocoon release that incorporates it, yet.

Re: fop 0.20.5 and chinese pdf
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I also configured FOP to embed MS Arial Unicode font. But I use Fop 0.93. The structure of the userconfig file changed between FOP 0.20.5 and FOP 0.93.

thank you for your reply, i used this font but i unfortunately get my pdf with # caracters...and my pdf weight was something like 20Mo!

Re: fop 0.20.5 and chinese pdf
Hi, it is definitely possible with FOP 0.20.5 - at least I succeeded in publishing Chinese documents (running FOP from the command line). Besides Arial Unicode MS, SIMHEI and SIMSUN should work. You will have to use the usual FOP tools to convert the TTF files into XML metric files required by FOP. I cannot tell you whether it still works inside cocoon (I never tried to do that), but neither do I know any reason why it should fail.

Re: fop 0.20.5 and chinese pdf
I guess you still have the problem that your fonts are not correctly embedded. For convenience, you can throw the TTFs and XML font files in the same folder where you have your userconfig.xml file. Also, make sure that the paths to all the font files in your userconfig file are correct! Did you try to run FOP from the command line? Maybe that helps you to figure out what the problem actually is. Well, 23 MB sound a bit much, on the other hand, version 0.20.5 and its predecessors are not famous for effective PDF compression. Since you want to publish your documents using Cocoon, I suppose you want them on-the-fly, with no postprocessing. Saving the PDF file with Adobe Acrobat will definitely let off air, but maybe this is not an option.

Re: fop 0.20.5 and chinese pdf
Yes, embedding is really the only way to go, and yes, the file will be PDF smaller because only the glyphs that are used are embedded, not all glyphs in the font. Jeff - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
