Re: [docbook-apps] Using custom fonts
@Martin,

That doesn't work. I get an exception: No output file specified

Let's check if FOP can really see the fonts you need. Copy your

/usr/bin/fop somewhere and open it with a text editor. On Gentoo, it

looks like this:

> #!/bin/bash gjl_package=fop gjl_main="org.apache.fop.cli.Main"

> source /usr/share/java-config-2/launcher/launcher.bash

gjl_main is the name of entry point class: "org.apache.fop.cli.Main"

Whatever your script looks like, search for that string (without

quotation marks) and change it to this:

org.apache.fop.tools.fontlist.FontListMain

Now run the modified launcher script like this:

./fop -c your/config/file.xml fontlist.pdf

The output file (fontlist.pdf) will contain samples of all fonts known

to FOP, one font per page.
