To redevelop something that worked before to look exactly the same because HP dropped their own format? No, no budget yet no sense of futility either. :) I've set this to do the font bitmapping, not sure that it's working as the font sizes aren't right, but they don't overlap so much:

I suggest PCL6 support. A late response I know, but this just came up recently I can't work around it. PCL 5 support is being dropped from some new printers it seems: http://h2.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00878487/c00878487.pdf This has happened a couple of times recently,

The default locations look good. But I know there are some differences between Windows TrueType fonts and Macintosh TrueType fonts. They use different tables for certain things. I would be nice if FOP could be made to work with Macintosh TrueType fonts. -- Loran Kary On Jul 19, 2007,

In FOP 0.93, page references are kept in ways that preserve the whole original pages objects. No problem with that except that this process is TOO memory intensive and exausts the heap memory if you have too many pages, segments and references. What i would like to see in a future FOP release
