http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9335 fo:basic-link generates multiple linked rectangles in PDF Summary: fo:basic-link generates multiple linked rectangles in PDF Product: Fop Version: 0.20.3 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: pdf renderer AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] An <fo:basic-link> element containing multiple words when rendered to PDF will result in a 'linked rectangle' around each word in the link, rather than one rectangle for the entire link as would be expected. Each word links to the same destination, so the effect is (almost) the same, except that the rectangles do not include the whitespace between words, and the file size of PDFs with many multi-word links can be dramatically increased, to the point of visibly slowing rendering speed. For example: <fo:block>The rain <fo:basic-link external-destination="spain.pdf">in Spain</fo:basic-link> falls mainly in the plain.</fo:block> will render as: +------------------------------------------------+ | +--+ +-----+ | |The rain |in| |Spain| falls mainly in the plain.| | +--+ +-----+ | +------------------------------------------------+ rather than the expected: +----------------------------------------------+ | +--------+ | |The rain |in Spain| falls mainly in the plain.| | +--------+ | +----------------------------------------------+ NB: Arved has indicated on fop-dev that "The multiple linked areas are an ancient debugging artifact, that seems to have become the norm." --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
