http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/: Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is the world's first print formatter driven by XSL formatting objects (XSL-FO) and the world's first output independent formatter. It is a Java application that reads a formatting object (FO) tree and renders the resulting pages to a specified output. Output formats currently supported include PDF, PCL, PS, AFP, TIFF, PNG, SVG, XML (area tree representation), Print, AWT and TXT. The primary output target is PDF. (Apache Software Foundation)

I miss an exemple of how to output this dictionary.


Type3 fonts are specified on page 206 and onwards of the PDF 1.3 spec.
