You have several options to achieve this. Either way, set the "baseDir" configuration setting (see http://xml.apache.org/fop/configuration.html) to your base URL.
You can use "file://" URLs if your images are saved on a file system you have access to from wherever you will be running FOP. A different option (in a J2EE environment) would be to have FOP issue http or https requests to a servlet that can access Slide (e.g. by image path or passing an id), set the base URL to "http://...";. Another hint - add a trailing "/" to your "baseDir" setting, otherwise FOP doesn't append the relative path correctly. -----Original Message----- From: delbd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 April 2005 09:37 To: [email protected] Subject: How to load graphical ressources from a content management engine Hello, i plan to use fops to generate pdf documents from a xsl-fo located in a document management engine. However, looking at code, it seems relative url for graphic tag are handled as relative to current directory and not relative to the source of the xsl-fo. In our case the xsl-fo is located in a content management engine (slide) and so is the pictures used by the xsl-fo. Can someone enlight me on how am supposed to manage this?
