To use the PCLRenderer you just need to tell the Driver to use the
PCLRenderer either by passing the symbolic constant for this or by passing
an instance of the PCLRenderer class. For example:

        fopDriver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PCL);
or
        fopDriver.setRenderer(new PCLRenderer());

If you are invoking FOP from the command line then you can use the -pcl
switch to invoke the PCL Renderer. 

I am not sure what was in the various ZIP files. I would have thought that
everything should be in there.

Subject: Re: Printing PDF using FOP...


I downloaded the 0.18 version of FOP (Fop-0.18.1-DEV-src.zip).
In it I did find the PCLRenderer class but found no example explaining how
to
use it.
Also the code I found in the src directory do not contain the
org.apache.fop.render.pcl package and all the new packages of 0.18 although
the
javadocs has them. Did I downloaded the wrong zip file.?
Can somebody provide me with a code snippet as to how to use PCLRenderer.
Hitesh..
