+ <p>
+ Please note that with this release, we've dropped support for Java
1.3.
+ FOP will, from now on, <strong>require at least Java 1.4</strong>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The image libraries Jimi and JAI are no longer needed (and used).
Instead we rely
+ completely on the Image I/O API that has been introduced with Java
1.4. If you still
+ need support for bitmap image formats that do not work
out-of-the-box, we recommend
+ adding <link href="http://jai-imageio.dev.java.net/";>JAI Image I/O
Tools</link>
+ (an Image I/O compatible image codec package) to the classpath.
