missing-font

Specifies whether to warn when a font is not found from the specified font family. The following either can be specified.

0.	No error message will be reported.
1.	The level 1 error message will be reported.
2.	The level 2 error message will be reported.

0.	No error message will be reported.
1.	The level 1 error message will be reported.
2.	The level 2 error message will be reported.

missing-glyph-all

false

Usually the report on missing-glyph is given only once to the same character. However, by specifying missing-glyph-all="true", the report can be given to all. Please note that careless specification could cause huge amount of error.

use-windows-api

false

Specifies whether to use the original API without using Windows API for the acquisition of font information, such as font width on Windows version with the values of true or false. When false is specified, the original API is used. In the Windows version, usually a font is processed by Windows API and with the non-Windows version, it's processed by the original API. Since both doesn't match completely, some differences may cause in the character position in the formatting result between the Windows version and the non-Windows version. This setting prevents the difference of the delicate character position between Windows version and non-Windows version. Effective only with the Windows version. If false is specified, the setting of <formatter-settings WindowsFontAPI> is invalid.

<script-font>

child of <font-settings>

script

Specifies the script codes for multilingual setting. The available scripts conform to ISO 15924. However, the Office Server Document Converter V7.1 does not support all scripts. The following scripts can be specified here.

<font-alias src="A" dst="B">
<font-alias src="B" dst="C">

“A” would never be replaced with “C”. Moreover, the setting for <font-alias> doesn't affect the font name in the Option file.

INX Output Settings

These settings are used for INX Output.

Element	Location	Attribute	Default	Description
<inx-settings>	child of <formatter-config>	output-mode	text	Specify how to generate the text frame of InDesign^® from text. text Text frame is generated from each text area. This mode can convert most closely to the formatting result. It is sometimes difficult to edit the result using InDesign^®. line Text frame is generated from each line area. block Text frame is generated from each block area. It is easy to edit the result using InDesign^®. Instead the conversion precision is lost at expense.
