Justin, Have you tried enclosing the name in single quotes? ~Dee<font-family name=" ' OCR-B (CBA) ' ">

Subject: [xep-support] Font names with parentheses in them
Of late our good friends at Microsoft have taken to putting parentheses in font names - "Arial (W1)" is an example that keeps coming up.
Unfortunately these seems to break XEP 4.9
Here's the font definition fragment from my xep.xml
<font-group xml:base="file:/tmp/" label="Windows TrueType" embed="true" subset="true"><font-family name="OCR-B (CBA)"><font><font-data ttf="TT0646Z_.ttf"/></font></font-family></font-group>
My relevant xsl:fo fragment looks like this:
<fo:block id="Paragraph_2" background-color="transparent" space-before="0pt" space-after="1.0E-4pt" line-height="120%" color="black" margin-right="0pt" margin-left="0pt" font-size="12pt" font-family="OCR-B (CBA), Symbol, serif" font-weight="normal" text-align="left" text-indent="0pt" white-space-collapse="false"> BTW OCR-B (CBA) rocks </fo:block>
XEP Warnings are:
XEP Warning: Unexpected token in font-family: FUNCTORXEP Warning: Unexpected token in font-family: RIGHT PARENTHESIS
and I get no PDF output.
I've also tried escaping the parentheses:
<fo:block id="Paragraph_2" background-color="transparent" space-before="0pt" space-after="1.0E-4pt" line-height="120%" color="black" margin-right="0pt" margin-left="0pt" font-size="12pt" font-family="OCR-B \(CBA\), Symbol, serif" font-weight="normal" text-align="left" text-indent="0pt" white-space-collapse="false">BTW OCR-B (CBA) rocks </fo:block>
to no avail.
Renaming the font to remove the parentheses resolves the issue.
Is this a bug? - Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Justin.
