Invalid property value encountered in font="Open Sans"

[Boreas]

Hello,

we successfully changed the use of the fonts in our plugin, well sort of.
The Open Sans font is generated in the PDF but we get the following error message

Invalid property value encountered in font="Open Sans"

each time the font is encountered. I did not really bother with the error message, my bad, because I though everything was under control since I was getting my PDF with Open Sans font. Well, of course error messages are issued for a reason.... So things got nasty when we generated our reference guide that has over 1000 pages(yup, 1000 pages and growing because it includes all of our settings ) We get an error log of 2.5 gig , which of course causes memory issues, and then nothing generates.

To implement the use of the Open Sans font, I used Add a Font to the Built-in FO Processor - The Simple Version procedure, provided in Oxygen's user guide . But I guess when the font is used, I am missing something, but what?

This is my font mappings file

Code: Select all

</font-mappings>

And this is an example of a font definition for one of our elements

in the commons file

Code: Select all

  <xsl:attribute-set name="heading.one">

        <xsl:attribute name="font-family">Sans</xsl:attribute>

        <xsl:attribute name="font">Open Sans</xsl:attribute>

        <xsl:attribute name="font-size">22pt</xsl:attribute>

   </xsl:attribute-set>

So, the big question, is how can I get rid of the error messages?

Hi,

I think the problem is with XSL-FO font property that you emit from your customization. The XSL-FO font property is a shorthand/composed property and it should have a form like:

Code: Select all

font - font-style, font-variant, font-weight, font-size, line-height, font-family

See also http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect3/shorthands.html.

The solution is simply remove the addition of font property because the font is already set with font-family property.
