Thanks for the links. I have read them. I will just have to transform my XML into FO catching every character not in the base font set. I will then put the character in <fo:inline> and indicate the font family found in my userconfig.xml file. The bottom line is that the characters not in the base font set are a wash. At least I can display them correctly even if they cannot be searched. I can only hope that the future will make it possible to go forward rather than attempting at this point to "translate" my unicode back into an ASCII equivalent. Until then, this is the best possible transformation. Mike F. --- "J.Pietschmann" <j3322ptm@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > Mike Ferrando wrote: > > Ok, great.
