Hi Jay,
See above: If you're not overriding the default resolution,
this is caused by the fact that 528px is 7.33in in the
default resolution.
I don't think that's the issue. The algorithm in that template is
"if the
image is more than 396 pixels wide, scale the image". It doesn't
try to
scale the image to 396 pixels. So, the line in the FO file is
What I meant was that you would only scale images that are larger
than the assumed 5.5in, which is actually 7.33in in default
resolution. So, the images between 5.5in and 7.33in won't be scaled
down, but they won't fit either...
<fo:external-graphic src="someimage.gif" content-width="scale-to-
fit"/>
This is tricky. See the remark about auto-width in my previous mail.
How is the formatter supposed to determine the width here if the
content-size isn't a fixed value? I suppose it then takes the
intrinsic image-height as a basis, so again, the image may end up too
large to fit in the area...

It's my understanding that content-width="scale-to-fit" should
shrink larger images and expand smaller images to fill the width of
the
content area.
The content-area is that of the external-graphic itself, so...
Yes, but only if the width specified on the external-graphic is fixed/
absolute or a percentage of the width of the containing block. If the
width is 'auto', the formatter must use the content-size...
At this point, I suspect that content-width="scale-to-fit" is not
working
correctly.
On the contrary, it is working almost perfectly, apart from the minor
bugger I mentioned in the previous mail... and now that I come to
think of it, even that could turn out to not be erroneous.
Think of it this way:
<fo:external-graphic src="image.gif" content-width="scale-to-fit" />
is the same as
<fo:external-graphic src="image.gif" width="auto" content-
width="scale-to-fit"
height="auto" content-height="auto" />
which would mean... Right!
Cheers,
Andreas
