I'm trying to configure fonts for use with the FO plugin for the DITA
Open Toolkit running under OS/X.
To start, I am not a Mac expert, so it's quite possible I am missing
something obvious.
But I tried this in my xep.xml file:
<font-group xml:base="/Users/ekimber/Library/Fonts/" label="Mac
Fonts" embed="true" subset="true">
<font-family name="Century Gothic">
<font><font-data ttf="Century Gothic"/></font>
</font-family>
<font-family name="Century Schoolbook">
<font><font-data ttf="Century Schoolbook"/></font>
</font-family>
</font-group>
<font-group xml:base="/Library/Fonts/" label="Mac Fonts"
embed="true" subset="true">
<font-family name="Comic Sans MS">
<font><font-data ttf="Comic Sans MS"/></font>
</font-family>
</font-group>
I also turned off the part of the FO plug-in that post-processes the FO
to munge up the fonts. The font-family specs in my FO are, e.g.:
<fo:root font-family="Century Gothic, Sans"
When I run the Toolkit, I get this response from XEP:
[java] [error] Cannot read font metric from
file:/Users/ekimber/Library/Fonts/Century Gothic
[java] [error] java.io.EOFException
[java] Rendering failed: Could not obtain font metric for font family
'Century Gothic'
So I must be missing something about how fonts work on the Mac or else
missing some bit of user error here.
Thanks,
Eliot
