Hi

I'm pulling my hair out in frustration! I have been trying for so long
to get Arabic fonts to display correct when using Docbook (converting
XML to FO using Xsltproc and then to PDF using FOP).

I'm sorry, but I just don't understand the documentation for FOP. It's
not clear enough for me.

I'm running FOP 1.0 on Linux. I need to know exacty, step by step,
what I need to do to get Arabic text rendered properly. Instead # is
shown.

I have created this file foprc.xconf:

<fop>
        <renderers>
                <renderer mime="application/pdf">
                        <fonts>
                                <auto-detect/>
                        </fonts>
                </renderer>
        </renderers>
</fop>

When I run FOP I use this command:

$ fop -c foprc.xconf -fo filename.fo -pdf filename.pdf

I get this message:

What exactly do I need to do?
