+      <title>Base-14 Fonts</title>
+      <p>The Adobe PDF Specification specifies a set of 14 fonts that must be available to every PDF reader: Helvetica (normal, bold, italic, bold italic), Times (normal, bold, italic, bold italic), Courier (normal, bold, italic, bold italic), Symbol and ZapfDingbats.</p>
+    </section>
+    <section id="awt">
+      <title>AWT/Operating System Fonts</title>
+      <p>The AWT family of renderers (AWT, Print, SVG), use the Java AWT libraries for font metric information. Through operating system registration, the AWT libraries know what fonts are available on the system, and the font metrics for each one.</p>
+    </section>
+    <section id="custom">
+      <title>Custom Fonts</title>
+      <p>Support for custom fonts is added by creating font metric files (written in XML) from the actual font files, and registering them with FOP. Currently only Type 1 and TrueType fonts can be added.
+More information about fonts can be found at:</p>
+      <ul>
+        <li><a href="http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/type/ftypes.html">Adobe font types</a></li>

+      <section id="type1-metrics">
+        <title>Type 1 Font Metrics</title>
+        <p>FOP includes PFMReader, which reads the PFM file that normally comes with a Type 1 font, and generates an appropriate font metrics file for it.
+To use it, run the class org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader:</p>
+        <p>Windows (on JDK 1.4 and later):</p>
+        <source>java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\avalon-framework.jar;lib\commons-logging.jar;lib\commons-io.jar
+           org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader [options] pfm-file xml-file</source>
+        <p>Windows (on JDK 1.3.x):</p>
+        <source>java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\avalon-framework.jar;lib\commons-logging.jar;lib\commons-io.jar;lib\xml-apis.jar;
+         lib\xercesImpl.jar;lib\xalan.jar;lib\serializer.jar
+           org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader [options] pfm-file xml-file</source>
+        <p>Unix (on JDK 1.4 and later):</p>
+        <source>java -cp build/fop.jar:lib/avalon-framework.jar:lib/commons-logging.jar:lib/commons-io.jar
+           org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader [options] pfm-file xml-file</source>
+        <p>Unix (on JDK 1.3.1):</p>
+        <source>java -cp build/fop.jar:lib/avalon-framework.jar:lib/commons-logging.jar:lib/commons-io.jar:lib/xml-apis.jar:
+         lib/xercesImpl.jar:lib/xalan.jar:lib/serializer.jar
+           org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader [options] pfm-file xml-file</source>
+        <p>PFMReader [options]:</p>
+        <ul>
+          <li><strong>-fn &lt;fontname&gt;</strong> By default, FOP uses the fontname from the
+.pfm file when embedding the font. Use the "-fn" option to override this name with one you have
+chosen. This may be useful in some cases to ensure that applications using the output document
+(Acrobat Reader for example) use the embedded font instead of a local font with the same
+name.</li>
+        </ul>
+        <note>The classpath in the above example has been simplified for readability.
+You will have to adjust the classpath to the names of the actual JAR files in the lib directory.
+xml-apis.jar, xercesImpl.jar, xalan.jar and serializer.jar are not necessary for JDK version 1.4 or later.</note>
+        <note>The tool will construct some values (FontBBox, StemV and ItalicAngle) based on assumptions and calculations which are only an approximation to the real values.
+FontBBox and Italic Angle can be found in the human-readable part of the PFB file or in the AFM file.
+The PFMReader tool does not yet interpret PFB or AFM files, so if you want to be correct, you may have to adjust the values in the XML file manually.
+The constructed values however appear to have no visible influence.</note>
+      </section>
+      <section id="truetype-metrics">
+        <title>TrueType Font Metrics</title>
+        <p>FOP includes TTFReader, which reads the TTF file and generates an appropriate font metrics file for it.
+Use it in a similar manner to PFMReader.
+For example, to create such a metrics file in Windows from the TrueType font at c:\myfonts\cmr10.ttf:</p>
+        <source>java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\avalon-framework.jar;lib\commons-logging.jar;lib\commons-io.jar
+           org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader [options]
+             C:\myfonts\cmr10.ttf ttfcm.xml</source>
+        <p>TTFReader [options]:</p>
+        <ul>
+          <li><strong>-d &lt;DEBUG | INFO &gt;</strong> Sets the debug level (default is
+INFO).</li>
+          <li><strong>-fn &lt;fontname&gt;</strong> Same as for PFMReader.</li>
+          <li><strong>-ttcname &lt;fontname&gt;</strong> If you're reading data from a
+TrueType Collection (.ttc file) you must specify which font from the collection you will read
+metrics from.
+If you read from a .ttc file without this option, the fontnames will be listed for you.</li>
+          <li><strong>-enc ansi</strong> Creates a WinAnsi-encoded font metrics file.
+Without this option, a CID-keyed font metrics file is created.
+The table below summarizes the differences between these two encoding options as currently
+used within FOP.
+Please note that this information only applies to TrueType fonts and TrueType collections:</li>
+        </ul>
+        <table id="ttf-encoding">
+          <tr>

+          <tr>
+            <td>Usable Character Set</td>
+            <td>Limited to WinAnsi character set, which is roughly equivalent to iso-8889-1.</td>
+            <td>Limited only by the characters in the font itself.</td>
+          </tr>
+          <tr>
+            <td>Character Encoding in the Output Document.</td>
+            <td>Correct.</td>
+            <td>Never correct. Search, index, and cut-and-paste operations in the output document
+will produce incorrect results.</td>
+          </tr>
+          <tr>
+            <td>Character Display</td>
+            <td>Correct.</td>
+            <td>Correct, but copy/paste won't work in Acrobat Reader. (FOP currently doesn't emit the /ToUnicode table which is necessary for copy/paste to work.)</td>
+          </tr>
+          <tr>
+            <td>Embedding the Font</td>
+            <td>Optional.</td>
+            <td>Mandatory. Not embedding the font produces invalid PDF documents.</td>
+          </tr>
+        </table>
+        <warning>
+          You may experience failures with certain TrueType fonts, especially if they don't contain 
+          the so-called "cmap" table. TTFReader can currently not deal with font like this.
+        </warning>
+      </section>
+      <section id="truetype-collections-metrics">
+        <title>TrueType Collections Font Metrics</title>
+        <p>TrueType collections (.ttc files) contain more than one font.
+To create metrics files for these fonts, you must specify which font in the collection should be generated, by using the "-ttcname" option with the TTFReader.</p>
+        <p>To get a list of the fonts in a collection, just start the TTFReader as if it were a normal TrueType file (without the -ttcname option).
+It will display all of the font names and exit with an Exception.</p>
+        <p>Here is an example of generating a metrics file for a .ttc file:</p>
+        <source>java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\avalon-framework.jar;lib\commons-logging.jar;lib\commons-io.jar
+           org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader -ttcname "MS Mincho"

+        <title>Register Fonts with FOP - Auto-Detect Fonts</title>
+        <p>You must tell FOP how to find and use the font metrics files by registering them in the <a href="configuration.html">FOP Configuration</a>. Add entries for your custom fonts, regardless of font type, to the configuration file in a manner similar to the following:</p>
+        <source><![CDATA[

+        <note>
+          Review the documentation for <a href="configuration.html">FOP Configuration</a> for
+          instructions on making the FOP configuration available to FOP when it runs. Otherwise,
+          FOP has no way of finding your custom font information.
+        </note>
+        The Unix autodetect feature looks in the following locations for fonts it can use:
+        <ul>
+          <li><code>java user.home + "/.fonts"</code></li>
+          <li><code>"/usr/local/fonts"</code></li>

+          <li><code>"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts"</code></li>
+        </ul>
+        <ul>
+          <li>
+            URLs are used to access the font metric and font files.

+          <li>The fonts "directory" tag can be used to register fonts contained within a single or list of directory paths.  The "recursive" attribute can be specified to recursively add fonts from all sub directories.</li>
+          <li>The fonts "auto-detect" tag can be used to automatically register fonts that are found to be installed on the native operating system.</li>
+          <li>Fonts registered with "font" tag configurations override fonts found by means of "directory" tag definitions.</li>
+          <li>Fonts found as a result of a "directory" tag configuration override fonts found as a result of the "auto-detect" tag being specified.</li>

+            If relative URLs are specified, they are evaluated relative to the value of the

+            relative to the base directory.

+        <note>The PostScript renderer does not yet support TrueType fonts, but can embed Type 1 fonts.</note>
+        <note>The font is simply embedded into the PDF file, it is not converted.</note>
+        <p>Font embedding is enabled in the userconfig.xml file and controlled by the embed-url attribute.
+If you don't specify the embed-url attribute the font will not be embedded, but will only be referenced.</p>
+        <warning>
+          Omitting the embed-url attribute for CID-encoded TrueType fonts will currently produce invalid 
+          PDF files! If you create the XML font metric file using the "-enc ansi" option, you can omit 
+          the embed-url attribute for TrueType fonts but you're restricted to the WinAnsi character set.
+        </warning>
+        <p>When FOP embeds a font, it adds a prefix to the fontname to ensure that the name will not match the fontname of an installed font.
+This is helpful with older versions of Acrobat Reader that preferred installed fonts over embedded fonts.</p>
+        <p>When embedding PostScript fonts, the entire font is always embedded.</p>
+        <p>When embedding TrueType fonts (ttf) or TrueType Collections (ttc), a subset of the
+          original font, containing only the glyphs used, is embedded in the output document.</p>

+        <title>Explicitly embedding the base 14 fonts</title>
+        <p>
+          There are cases where you might want to force the embedding of one or more of the base 14 fonts that
+          can normally be considered available on the target platform (viewer, printer). One of these cases is
+          PDF/A which mandates the embedding of even the base 14 fonts. Embedding a font such as Helvetica or
+          Courier is straight-forward. The "Symbol" and "ZapfDingbats" fonts, however, currently present a 
+          problem because FOP cannot correctly determine the encoding of these two single-byte fonts through
+          the PFM file. FOP now correctly interprets the "encoding" value in the XML font metrics file, but the
+          PFMReader application writes "UnknownEncoding" to the generated XML file. In order to embed "Symbol"
+          and "ZapfDingbats" you have to manually change the XML font metrics file and specify "SymbolEncoding"
+          or "ZapfdingbatsEncoding" encoding respectively as the value for the "encoding" element.
