Tres Finocchiaro updated PDFBOX-5715:
-------------------------------------
Description:
When printing the
[border.fo|https://github.com/apache/xmlgraphics-fop/blob/main/fop/examples/fo/basic/border.fo]
example (converted to PDF from Apache FOP) to a 4x6 printer on a Mac, some of
the lines vanish.
* The behavior does not occur on a A4 or US Letter document.
* The behavior varies slightly depending on rendering hints.
* The behavior is not reproducible on Linux
* This problem has been discussed – in part – on the mailing list here:
[https://lists.apache.org/thread/nb9vsfx2gd8j37mrnlbbj0vqy6wrwt88]
Attached is a sample project which reproduces this problem:
[^fop.zip]
To run the example:
# Install a PDF printer on the Mac
# Extract fop.zip and run it using maven:
{code:java}
mvn compile && mvn exec:java
{code}
Expected:
!image-2023-11-11-18-57-39-403.png!
Actual:
!image-2023-11-11-18-56-24-363.png!
In the field, this issue may be common in scenarios where labels are obtained
from shipping companies that use Apache FOP for creating the PDFs and are then
printed using PDFBOX (e.g. PitneyShip). At time of writing this, the issue
seems to be specific to MacOS.
