[David Gagnon]

Hi all,     I was looking for a good example as well those pdf are impressive.  I was wondering if the .fo and .xml regarding those examples have been posted somewhere?  I looked into the bug database and haven`t found them are they available?   Thanks for your help!! /David       -----Message d'origine----- De : Dennis Myrén [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : February 9, 2005 03:48 À : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Objet : RE: Contributing to FOP (Re: representative example needed)   >Unfortunately, I get an error when I try to view those links: >HTTP Error 403.6 - Forbidden: IP address of the client has been rejected. >Internet Information Services (IIS)   That was really awkward, and not what I intended.

I have been programming PDF components for a long time and know the PDF file format, as well as XSL-FO. Therefore, i think i might be able to help out. However, we havent really taken the time for that.
