+ <question>The following message appears after recently upgrading FOP:
+ "I/O exception while reading font cache (org.apache.fop.fonts.EmbedFontInfo;
+ local class incompatible: stream classdesc serialVersionUID =
+ -9075848379822693399, local class serialVersionUID = 8755432068669997367).
+ Discarding font cache file."</question>
+ <answer>
+ <p>
+ This message is a warning that FOP failed to read from the Font cache.
+ Which means any Font auto detection or Font directories will be re-scanned.
+ So this failure doesn't break anything.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ To avoid the warning you can simply delete the
+ old Font Cache file, which according to [1] lives in ${base}\conf\font.cache.
+ Or you can disable Font Caching altogether using the option "use-cache"
