Description

The attached patch adds support for *.ttc to the auto-detection mechanism. This is my original work, and I'm submitting it for inclusion in FOP under ALv2.0.

Demand for this capability may increase as usage of Microsoft's
proprietary ClearType Collection fonts increases, since Cambria is the
default font for Word 2007 headings, and its delivered in a .ttc

The attachment is an update of the patch I posted to fop-dev on 21 March.

This updated patch compiles on Java 1.4, and no longer includes the FOray Panose stuff.

I'm using the fonts package by itself - principally for its
autodetection capabilities. So I don't use PrintRendererConfigurator

• that will need to be altered further to properly use the patch.
