Can you provide a short FO document that demonstrates your problem? I cannot reproduce it with Apache FOP 0.94 based on your description. <snip/> > - To get basic-link with internal-destination attribute to point to the > exact reference element page position instead of the top of page, I > suppose that requires FO 1.1, may be FOP 0.94, is it right? FO 1.1 is not necessary.

Please see: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/faq.html#pdf-characters Basically, you just need a font that has the characters you want to display. Obviously, your font lacks some of these characters. > Many thanks for any answers or suggestions to try. > > Regards > Khaled > Jeremias Maerki
