issues with TTFReader

Rate this Message:
Hi,
I need to deliver PDF for all European languages using FOP (preferably) I am testing on a windows machine, the eventual operation will be on a Sun Solaris 10 machine. And I have a bunch of questions 1. Does anyone have a good recommendation for a font that covers all the characters I will need. Currently I think that Arial Unicode MS would suite best I appreciate suggestions for alternatives 2. I am trying to use TTFReader to generate the XML font metrics. That doesn't seem to work This is my command-line java -cp D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\build\fop.jar;D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\lib\avalon-framework-4.2.0.jar;D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\lib\commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\lib\commons-io-1.3.1.jar org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader C:\Windows\Fonts\ARIALUNI.TTF arialuni.xml This is the error message I get Parsing font... Reading C:\Windows\Fonts\ARIALUNI.TTF... Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xmlgraphics/fonts/Glyphs at org.apache.fop.fonts.truetype.TTFFile.initAnsiWidths(TTFFile.java:444 ) at org.apache.fop.fonts.truetype.TTFFile.readFont(TTFFile.java:493) at org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader.loadTTF(TTFReader.java:209) at org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader.main(TTFReader.java:164) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.xmlgraphics.fonts.Glyphs at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(Unknown Source) ... 4 more Someone out there who can interprete this and give me advice on what is wrong? 3. Can I then use the .ttf and the font metrics on the solaris machine, or do I need to find an alternative font an do some similar actions again? Are font metric files interchangeable? If someone generated the metrics file for me, could I just reuse it... If yes, is there somewhere a library of metrics files then?

I can't immediately think of any alternatives. You may find you are breaching the license of that font if you are planning on using it on a Solaris system however, as I believe it is included with MS Office. So technically you would need a license for MS Office for your Solaris environment in order to be able to use the font there. > > 2. I am trying to use TTFReader to generate the XML font metrics.

In fact it is recommended that you don't generate the metrics as FOP is far more intelligent about how it reads the Font when not using metrics in the latest versions. > > This is my command-line > java -cp > D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\build\fop.jar;D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\lib\avalon-framework-4.2.0.jar;D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\lib\commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;D:\XML\XSLFO\FOP\fop-0.95\lib\commons-io-1.3.1.jar > org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader C:\Windows\Fonts\ARIALUNI.TTF > arialuni.xml > > This is the error message I get The error is a classpath error.

As already mentioned you don't need the metrics file at all. Copying the TTF to the Solaris machine will work but I believe you may be breaching the terms of the MS Office license, although IANAL. > > Are font metric files interchangeable?

Yes you could but as I already explained they are no longer necessary. So no, there is no library of metrics available.

> >How about STIX or Gentium? Both are serif fonts though. Thanks Justus, I went for DejaVu Serif, but I am not so fond (font?) of it, since that is a pretty wide font. I have a three column layout with sometimes long words and the page view is not that nice with DejaVu. As long as I did not find a better alternative, it suits my requirements In my search of alternatives, I looked after your suggestions, and I have some comments on that STIX is still in Beta, so I can't sell it to my customer as a production font Gentium does support some Greek and Cyrillic, but too little Cyrillic for my purposes (and the Cyrillic also is documented as 'in beta') I also did not find "bold" and "bold italic" fonts in the package So, my hunt for better is still open cheers Geert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscribe@...

hi Geert,
I read through your mail chain and was able to find the mistake i was making. It was in the triplet naming. I corrected it and was able to embed the font correctly. One query, if once my pdf is generated with the embeded fonts, then if it is viewed in any system it would be shown correctly?? I mean no need to have the fonts installed in the client machines.I tried to verify it myself by checking the pdf in different machinw where the ArialUni.ttf font(Which i have used for embedding to support chinese ) and i was able to view the pdf correctly. Also in the pdf properties i can see the font been shown as embedded. Please correct me if m wrong. Thanks Greet for replying. Best Regards Sumit

Unless you explicitely state differently,

bug in marker processing?
by Geert Bormans

Rate this Message:
Dear all,
I have hit something that seems to me a bug in FOP. Is this a known bug? And if yes, is there a known workaround? I am listing columns with dictionary terms. Terms can have long descriptions. If a term continues to the next page, I need to add an arrow in the footer This is my region after <fo:static-content flow-name="mt-region-after"> <fo:block font-size="8pt" text-align-last="justify"> <fo:leader leader-pattern="space"/> <fo:page-number/> <fo:leader leader-pattern="space"/> <fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="right-arrow" retrieve-position="last-starting-within-page"/> </fo:block> </fo:static-content> This is an excerpt of a term <fo:block padding-bottom="2mm"> <fo:block> <fo:inline font-size="8pt" font-weight="bold">my little term</fo:inline> </fo:block> <fo:block keep-with-previous="always"> <fo:marker marker-class-name="this-term">my little term</fo:marker> <fo:marker marker-class-name="right-arrow">?</fo:marker> </fo:block> <fo:list-block margin-left="3mm" space-before="0pt" space-after="0pt"> <fo:list-item> <fo:list-item-label> <fo:block line-height="1.0"> <fo:inline font-size="8pt">AA</fo:inline> </fo:block> </fo:list-item-label> <fo:list-item-body start-indent="10mm"> <fo:block line-height="1.0"> <fo:inline font-size="8pt" font-style="italic">aaaaa</fo:inline> </fo:block> </fo:list-item-body> </fo:list-item> </fo:list-block> <fo:list-block margin-left="3mm" space-before="0pt" space-after="0pt"> <fo:list-item> <fo:list-item-label> <fo:block line-height="1.0"> <fo:inline font-size="8pt">BB</fo:inline> </fo:block> </fo:list-item-label> <fo:list-item-body start-indent="10mm"> <fo:block line-height="1.0"> <fo:inline font-size="8pt">bbbbbbbbb</fo:inline> </fo:block> </fo:list-item-body> </fo:list-item> </fo:list-block> <fo:block keep-with-previous="always"> <fo:marker marker-class-name="right-arrow"/> </fo:block> </fo:block> In my opinion, I make the marker empty when a term ends on a page (see the keep-with-previous) In Antenna House, this works. In FOP, I get the arrows, always, which seems wrong to me. any suggestions?

Is indeed a bug in 0.95 or earlier. Try FOP Trunk if you can. There was an issue with empty markers, but that has been fixed in the meantime. Also, making the marker contain an invisible character (ZWSP) should be enough to sidestep the issue. HTH!

Hi Andreas,
Thanks for your answer. I am happy this is a recognised bug, so I don't need to look further. I can't use trunk, since I need to install this with a customer, and "trunk" is not considered "stabile" I will try your suggestion of making the marker not empty but invisible. Thank you very much for that suggestion cheers Geert At 16:35 8/08/2009, you wrote: >On 08 Aug 2009, at 13:33, Geert Bormans wrote: > >Hi Geert > >>I have hit something that seems to me a bug in FOP. >> >>Is this a known bug? >>And if yes, is there a known workaround? >> >>I am listing columns with dictionary terms. >>Terms can have long descriptions. >>If a term continues to the next page, I need to add an arrow in the >>footer >> >><snip /> >>In my opinion, I make the marker empty when a term ends on a page >>(see the keep-with-previous) >> >>In Antenna House, this works. >>In FOP, I get the arrows, always, which seems wrong to me. >>any suggestions? > >Is indeed a bug in 0.95 or earlier. >Try FOP Trunk if you can.
