The following page has been changed by JeremiasMaerki: http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/AreaTreeIntermediateXml/NewDesign The comment on the change is: Fixed a typo and updated design graphic to reflect text ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ == IFPainter design == - IFPainter (working title, better suggestions welcome!) is a central interface, like Renderer. There's one implementation for each output format that is useful in the context of the intermediate format (probably includes all current renderers except text. most important are: PostScript, AFP and PCL). Ideally, the IFPainter interface is a direct equivalent to the possible SAX stream for the new IF format, i.e. it is possible to convert between IFPainter and the IF-NG SAX stream with no losses. The IFContentHandler in the graphic above would convert the SAX stream to IPPainter calls and a special IFPainter implementation used by IFRenderer could convert the calls to the SAX stream. That way, the IFRenderer could actually render to an IFPainter without the detour over XML. + IFPainter (working title, better suggestions welcome!) is a central interface, like Renderer.

The IFPainter interface is not fully designed, yet, so the following is just to give an idea what it could look like (all methods will probably throw SAXException): --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
