Hello David,

Yes, there is a bug indeed. Thanks for your report. This bug affects
non-embedded Japanese TrueType fonts only. It will be fixed in the
next maintenance release - I suppose it will be available in a week or
so.

Best regards,

DCTP> This same problem occurs when I process the jaxml.xml file from the renderx website <http://www.renderx.com/xmlspec.html> Here's what I get from xep 3.7.1:
DCTP> http://thingbag.net/docbook/jaxml.pdf. I notice that the japanese pdf at the renderx site was created by xep 2.7. Can someone confirm that this should work with xep 3.7.1?

DCTP> Thanks,
DCTP> David

>> "Attempt to release an unlocked object" and I can't select text.

>> I'd be happy to provide the fo source and the resulting pdf off-list.
>> 
>> Using XEP 2.8 to render the same document, the pdf opens fine 
>> and can be searched, but as far as I can tell I can't do 
>> <fo:inline font-family="Courier,HeiseiKakuGo">English and 
>> Japanese here...</fo:inline> and even have trouble with 
>> <fo:inline font-weight="italic">English and Japanese 
>> here...</fo:inline>.
