David, finally I solved my problem with the location of the locationmap. I had something like this in my locationmap.xml:
<match pattern="pdf.transform.*.*"> <select> <location src="{properties:skins-dir}/myskin/xslt/fo/{1}-to-{2}.xsl"/> </select> </match> but had to remove the <select> to get it working since otherwise I get a java exception in my locationmap.log which is not very helpful to find the problem... Thank you very much since you pushed me in the right direction. Thomas David Crossley schrieb: > > EMMEL Thomas wrote: > > > > so what now ??? > > Sorry, i had to snip all of the above.
