Hi;

Can you point me to an example of "rendering to Java2D"? The single AWT example 
coming with FOP is one that outputs to screen and it seems that it does that 
behind the sceene when receiving SAX endDocument I guess.

Alternatively whould I use AWT preview mime type, to an output stream and pipe 
that to ImageIO? How can I do that? Should I use such techniques as those 
presented at: http://ostermiller.org/convert_java_outputstream_inputstream.html 
or is it a more direct and natural way to it without inverting control?

Thank you,
Nicu

ImageIO is used automatically (if available), but this applies more to images 
inserted into the FO, not to the output targets.

GIF output is, strictly speaking, not supported. As image formats, FOP only 
offers TIFF or PNG out-of-the-box. (see: 
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/output.html)

That said, I guess one possibility would be to render the result to Java2D, and 
then take care of the conversion to GIF yourself, using ImageIO or whatever 
library you want.
