Subject: Re: [xsl] using apache fop, displaying delta char (Unicode #2206) in pdf From: "J.Pietschmann" <j3322ptm@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2002 23:50:15 +0200 |
I am using Apache FOP in XSL to display an XML file in pdf format.
The following xsl code displays the letter D in the pdf file when I am expecting the delta (or increment) symbol 'Ä' <xsl:text>∆</xsl:text>
Thiss is the "forward difference" character, which does not seem to have a glyph in the standard fonts. It is surprising though that you get a 'D', rather than a '#', which FOP version are you using?
But the following xsl code displays the 'ÿ' character in the pdf file which is correct. <xsl:text>ÿ</xsl:text>
There is nothing surprising about this, as &#FF; is the "lower latin letter y with diaresis", resulting in the glyph you expected.
In order to get a "forward difference" character, get a font which has a glyph for it, follow the instructions to tell FOP about it, and select the font in the context where you want to display this character. Alternatively, if you don't care too much about possible fine differences, you can try an upper greek letter delta, Δ
