I am trying to add a "Page X of Y" footer to the bottom of a text
document. I got everything working *EXCEPT* the font size.
I wrote this code:
// Adds Page X of Y to the footer
Font fontsmaller = new Font("Arial",
StyleTypeDefinitions.FontStyle.REGULAR, 8);
Footer footer = doc.getFooter();
Section footersection = footer.appendSection("Page Numbers");
Paragraph footerparagraph =
footersection.addParagraph("Page\u00A0");
footerparagraph.setFont(fontsmaller); // Doesn't work here either
Fields.createCurrentPageNumberField(footerparagraph.getOdfElement());
footerparagraph.appendTextContent("\u00A0of\u00A0");
Fields.createPageCountField(footerparagraph.getOdfElement());
footerparagraph.setFont(fontsmaller); // Doesn't work here either
It seems to work EXCEPT the part of changing the font size. In Word,
the font ends up being the default size of 12. (Works as expected in
LibreOffice.)
Interesting, counterexample. It works when I set the font larger, like
16, but it doesn't work when I set the font smaller, like 10 or 8.
I performed a diff comparison on the output form odftoolkit(-) and the
output from Word(+). It seems the key difference is lines like these in
styles.xml:
- <style:style style:family="paragraph" style:name="a2b0e5e">
- <style:paragraph-properties fo:text-align="center"
style:line-break="strict" style:punctuation-wrap="hanging"

+ <text:span text:style-name="T6">

+ </text:span>

+ </style:footer>
Unfortunately, I don't know what code I should write to force odftoolkit
to generate appropriate styles and text properties fields.
Could someone please help me figure this one out?
Thanks.
