Moritz Flöter updated FOP-3246:
-------------------------------
Description:
[PATCH] At my job, we cently migrated some functionality from hand written
positioning of PDF elements to Apache FOP.
When running tests, we compare the resulting PDFs (after filtering out things
like date, ID etc.).
However, we realized that our development systems (Windows based) produced
different output than our Linux based test systems. We found out that this is
due to line endings in the XMP metadata.
It would be nice to have similar behaviour accross all operating systems given
that there is no functional difference between both PDF files (albeit LF line
endings make the file a tiny bit smaller).
Therefore I implemented a change that replaces CRLF line endings with LF line
endings in the XMP metadata.
