Again with thanks to Jeremias, I'm successfully sizing the region-before
for dynamically generated tables. I'm doing this via and xslt extension
function (Xalan style).
The xslt extension calls my sizing function which employs fop-1.0 to
generate an IF from the given dom.Node. I notice that during the
function's invocation of fop-1.0 that the named fonts are not found and
are substituted with "any" in the resultant intermediate format output,
with font-size=1000 (!!!!), with log messages like 'Font
"Optima-Oblique,normal,700" not found. Substituting with
"any,normal,700'. I'm doubly confused because the fo is ultimately
processed to pdf by the same fop-1.0.
I have to confess that I'm invoking fop reflectively since we have many
versions in play and I need each to have their own classpath. That said
the same invocation happens for both the extension and the final
processing. Here's part of the where the font path is set:
final Method setFontBaseURLMethod =
fopFactoryClass.getMethod("setFontBaseURL", new Class[]{String.class});
String fontsURL = "file://" + bundlePath + fopHome + "/fonts";
setFontBaseURLMethod.invoke(fopFactory, new
Object[]{fontsURL});
I suspect there is some subtle distinction between generating IF and PDF
output?
I get good results with this if the caller of my function is processed
with fop-1.0. If the caller is processed by fop-0.95 the estimated size
is much too large and I mis-size the region. In both cases the IF has
'font-name="any"' so I'm a little surprised it work at all?!
Any pointers on where I've messed up would be greatly appreciated.
