[oXygen-user] Embedding fonts in Oxygen for FOP

[Mark Wilson]

Sometime ago, you supplied me this information to embed a font for FOP. I 
have now moved my implementation to a new machine and FOP complained that it 
could not find a font. I found the below email and to refresh my memory, 
tried to go to
http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/articles/AddFontToFOP/addFontToFOP.pdf
which no longer exists. So, I do not know where or why to run this script or 
how to set things up on my new machine. Everything except FOP works. I 
access FOP from a bat file, not from a scenario.

Any hints would be appreciated,
Mark
