XSL-FO to PDF fails due to font error

[llpick]

Hello there,

I get a systematic error during PDF transformation after installing missing font combinations for Roboto.
(DITA MAP PDF based on XSL-FO)

Code: Select all

ID Système: C:\test\temp\pdf\topic.fo
Scénario: DITA Map PDF - test 2020-01-21
fichier Input: C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Editor 21\samples\dita\flowers\flowers.ditamap
Nom du moteur: FOP
Gravité: error
Description: Anttask - Error rendering fo file: C:\test\temp\pdf\topic.fo <org.apache.fop.apps.FOPException: Failed to read font file file:/C:/Windows/FONTS/Roboto-Light_0.ttf

I haven't changed anything about my DITA plugin. I've checked my C:\Windows\Fonts\ folder using the command line and the Roboto-Light_0.ttf file is there.
I'm having a tough time understanding what's happening or how to investigate further. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi,

After the transformation fails there is a DITA OT console view at the bottom of Oxygen, you can try to look inside it to see if there are more details about the failure. The problem is not necessarily generated by the fact that the Apache FOP processor bundled with Oxygen cannot locate the file, but somehow it might not be able to interpret the information inside the font because of some limitation.

Regards,
Radu

Hi Radu, here is what the oXygen console view tells me about the issue :

Hi,

Looks like this bug:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2704

There is a fop.xconf file in:

OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR/frameworks/dita/DITA-OT3.x/plugins/org.dita.pdf2.fop/cfg/fop.xconf

Maybe you can try the advice on the issue above and add to it an element to disable complex scripts:

Code: Select all

<complex-scripts disabled="true" />

but as it's specified on the thread, this might not work for fonts which are automatically gathered.
The issue was added by my colleague Dan but even if we patch things on our side to make this work, we'll probably focus on fixing things in the CSS-based PDF processor and not in the Apache FOP used for the XSL-FO based publishing.

Regards,
Radu

The PDF now generates properly. Thank you so much Radu for saving the day
