To document something like that to every possible detail is a lot of work and is like to get out of sync with the code very quickly. Provided this is possible at all since there are so many sub-formats and variants in the image world. Of course, users can always help us gather information by adding such information on the Wiki or sending patches for our website sources. > 2.

I've never been able to produce such a JPEG file and thus was never able to test with it. It looks like the loading stage is not fine enough to handle a JPEG that does not use baseline format. It has to be refined so more exotic JPEGs like yours get decoded by a JPEG codec. Right now, the code tries to embed the JPEG in the PDF without decoding it (to improve speed and lower memory consumption), but PDF doesn't support extended sequential DCT. Would you please add a Bugzilla entry (for product: Apache XML Graphics Commons) and attach your JPEG file to the issue? Thanks. > 3. does anyone know, if this format is determinable, when/if it will be > supported, or who I can resolve this issue. "When" is a question that you'll rarely get an answer for in a volunteer-driven project. Some changes are necessary in the image loading framework in Apache XML Graphics Commons so the code falls back to loading/decoding the image using a codec. The work-around is to convert the image to a different format (or even JPEG again if you manage to avoid extended sequential DCT format). > Thanks > > Ashley > -- > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/JPEG-problem---FOP-0.95-tp19203276p19203276.html > Sent from the FOP - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > Jeremias Maerki --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
