Yes, those are TTF fonts.

Next you would edit the xep.xml file and add them.

There are sample Windows-based TTF fonts in the xep.xml, you can follow
those examples.

If you have trouble, ring our office tomorrow and we can assist you.

I'm not very familiar with dealing with different languages and fonts.  I
just now went to this website http://www.paratype.com/public/
<http://www.paratype.com/public/>  and installed the PTSans fonts from
there.

 

I found my XEP.xml file.  I don't have time tonight, but tomorrow I will
work on adding the fonts to that file.

 

Is this the correct course of action I should take?

You need three things:

 

1)      Text that contains the characters, you have this

2)      Specify a font for that text that contains the characters

3)      Make sure that font is available to XEP through the xep.xml
configuration file

 

You have not done (2) and or (3) and hence you get no output for the
specified characters.

 

What font are you using?

Is that font specified in XEP.xml and available on the system?

Hello,
I hope somebody can help me with this.  I'm using XEP Assistant to render a
.fo document to pdf.  The source .fo file contains both Russian and English
words, but the resulting pdf document only has the English words.
 
I've tried setting the encoding to encoding="UTF-8",
encoding="windows-1251", encoding="ISO-8859-5", with the same results. 
 
Can anyone tell me how to fix this? 
 
Thanks for your help.
 
Regards,
Evelyn
