Oxygen XML Forum

I'm trying to follow the instructions here:

http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/ ... n-FOP.html

to add fonts to the built-in FOP, on Linux, but the suggested script fails.
line 3: export: `-cp': not a valid identifier
line 3: export: `lib/fop.jar:lib/avalon-framework-4.2.0.jar:lib/xercesImpl.jar': not a valid identifier
line 4: export: `org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader': not a valid identifier
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/gentium-plus/GentiumPlus-R/ttf

The jar files are all where they're supposed to be. I must be missing something obvious. Can anyone see what it is?

All help appreciated,
Martin

I was able to get a little further by adding two more libraries to the classpath, and running a complete literal command instead of using the exports:

java -cp lib/fop.jar:lib/avalon--framework-4.2.0.jar:lib/xercesImpl.jar:lib/commons-logging-1.1.1.jar:lib/commons-io-1.3.1.jar:lib/xmlgraphics-commons-1.5.jar:lib/xml-apis.jar org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader /usr/share/fonts/truetype/gentium-plus/GentiumPlus-R.ttf GentiumPlus-R.xml

Two additional libraries are suggested by the documentation here:

http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/1.1/fonts.html

and the last two I figured out based on errors.

Hope this helps someone else.

Cheers,
Martin

Hello,

Thank you for reporting the error. We updated the FOP library in the lib directory but not the classpath in the script for generating the font metrics file. I corrected the script in the User Manual, the next Oxygen User Manual version will include the corrected script.


Thank you,
