Hello Patrick, We are using a patched FOP (0.20.2) for a credit system in a bank. The speed is fine since we have a server where speed does not matter (Solaris 8 with SUN Jdk). we are printing about 1000 documents per day. Most of them have 1-2 pages. Some up to 20. Currently we are developing a report generator with FOP. The Reports will have up to 1000 pages.
Input format: .fo with special tags for pre processing and data insertion Output format : PDF Clients for printing (Acrobat Reader): WinNT, Win2000, Win95, OS/2; AR: 3.0 (OS/2), 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 in almost any combination. Our Customers are satisfied with our printing solution because the old one we have replaced was using ms word with embedded macros... (OK - it's not realy a printing 'solution'..., but it had done its job exept with OS/2 (Word Pro) or Word 2000) Some comments to FOP: 1. Fop does sometimes hang in an endless loop with entities like & < and > (these are the only entities we are using; Lang: de, encoding ansi) if the first word of the line is too long for the whole line in a small table cell. - thats why we have patched FOP - but it's more a workaround than a patch and does not resolve the problem. If someone want to get the patch I will send it. 2. Fop sometimes switches the lines up and down with entities or inline sequences. Regards, Enrico Schnepel Am Sonntag, 13.
