I have an issue with Cyrillic font in Apache FOP 1.1 on CentOS: ######## is shown instead of symbols.

This is fragment from fop.xconf: 

<fonts>              
    <font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="bold"/>       
    <auto-detect/>
 </fonts>

On Windows 10 it works fine, on CentOS it produces ######. Can anybody help me?

  • Related, though not exactly the same siituation, as you are already configuring the fonts: http://stackoverflow.com/q/25895984/4453460 – lfurini Apr 07 '17 at 20:27

The font-triplet element should be inside a font element pointing to the font file, for example: 

<font kerning="yes" embed-url="/usr/share/fonts/Arial.ttf" embedding-mode="subset">
    <font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
</font>

Moreover, it seems like FOP cannot find a font folder in the "usual" positions; you can try explicitly adding a font folder

<directory>/usr/share/fonts/</directory>

The specific error message(s) you get could help pinpointing the specific problem.
