> [PATCH] PCL Color printing
> --------------------------

>                 Key: FOP-2309
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2309
>             Project: FOP
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: renderer/pcl, renderer/svg
>    Affects Versions: 1.1
>         Environment: I'm currently testing in windows only, but should apply 
> to all
>            Reporter: James Burton
>            Assignee: simon steiner

> This patch adds the following:
>   - Supports color printing
>   - Replaces the run-length compression routine with one that will try 
> run-length, tagged image file format, delta row and if need be unencoded, 
> which ever is smallest.
>   - Handles images set to the left of the printable area, it will clip the 
> image by not sending down those bits.
> The code currently has these issues (and would love suggestions on how to do 
> it):
>   - Need a way to specify if the printer supports color.  You will get 
> garbage if you send color commands to an old black and white printer 
> (although most newer black and white printers will emulate color with 
> greyscale).  It is currently controlled in the code with this line "final 
> boolean printerSupportsColor=true;"
>   - Color images are currently not scaled.  This is because the application 
> I'm writing only expects FOP files with SVG.  And SVG is always rendered to a 
> 300 dpi 24 bit color image before being sent to the PCL module.  This works 
> for me.
>   - Should have a attribute for setting speed vs size of PCL output.
