Hello Els,
TeX fonts tend to use their own conventions for glyph naming.
Therefore in order to make them available for XEP you need a custom
glyph list that maps glyph names to Unicode codepoints. This
feature is described in our documentation, take a look at
http://xep.xattic.com/xep/doc/userguide.html#PS_Fonts_Unicode.
XEP distribution includes a sample glyph list for OmegaSerifIPA font.
Best regards,
Alexander Peshkov mailto:peshkov@renderx.com

r> I'd like to use the (TeX) Computer Modern font within XEP so that PDF pages
r> rendered by XEP look identical to those rendered by LaTeX. I've added the
r> following to the xep\etc\fonts.xml file:
r> <font name="cmr10"
r> afm="..\afm\cm\cmr10.afm"
r> pfb="..\pfb\cm\cmr10.pfb"
r> embed="true"
r> subset="true">
r> <alias name="Computer Modern"/>
r> </font>
r> and so on, for the bold, italic and sansserif fonts.
r> To the afm directory I added the .afm and .pfb files for the CM fonts.
r> I've run some tests rendering PDF, and this works OK except for the special
r> characters such as the uacute, trademark symbol, copyrights symbol, etc. The
r> Greek characters (e.g. Greek capital letter Theta Θ) come through all
r> right.
r> How can I render the other special characters properly?
r> Who has dealt with this before and can point me into the right direction?
r> Thanks!
r> Els
