Hi Glenn,

Sorry for me taking ages to reply.

It would not be a function of FOP, but of the XSLT stylesheet you are
using. If you use FOP to transform the XML/XSLT input into an XSL-FO
file, then you can view that file to find the references to the missing
images.

Thanks for the pointer! Here's a snippet from the FO I created:

<fo:block><fo:external-graphic width="auto" height="auto" content-width="36pt" src="url(../common/images/note.svg)"/></fo:block></fo:list-item-label><fo:list-item-body start-indent="body-start()"><fo:block space-before.minimum="0em" space-before.optimum="0em" space-before.maximum="0em" font-family="Helvetica,Verdana,Arial,Sans Serif" font-size="10pt" font-weight="bold" margin-left="0.25in" margin-right="0.25in" border-left="5pt solid black" padding-left="0.1in" hyphenate="false" keep-with-next.within-column="always">Note</fo:block><fo:block space-before.minimum="0em" space-before.optimum="0em" space-before.maximum="0em" margin-left="0.25in" margin-right="0.25in" border-left="5px solid black" padding-left="0.1in"><fo:block space-before.optimum="1em" space-before.minimum="0.8em" space-before.maximum="1.2em">
                  The logic of the previous example also applies for a
                  relation such as this one:

In DocBook, this would be:

              <note>
                <para>
                  The logic of the previous example also applies for a
                  relation such as this one:

So, quite apparently, note.svg is inserted for a DocBook <note>. (I've confirmed for other instances of note.svg in the FO file.)

But when searching the DocBook XSL style sheets (local copy) for note.svg, all I get is this:

2005-01-05  Jirka Kosek <ko...@users.sourceforge.net>

        * caution.svg, important.svg, note.svg, tip.svg, warning.svg:
        New file.

No clue as to how the file gets inserted into the FO. :-(

Searching e.g. the 1.77.1 DocBook XSL style sheets for note.svg gives me this:

docbook-xsl-1.77.1/images/colorsvg/note.svg
docbook-xsl-1.77.1/images/note.svg

Still no clue why (and how) note.svg is referenced in the FO, but at least it's an existing file, although FOP seems to expect it in a different location (../common/images), thus the error.

What do you think? Is this a DocBook XSL bug (in which case I'll bring it up on the DocBook mailing list), or could FOP be doing something wrong?

Cheers,

Stefan

For example, use

fop -xml test.xml -xsl test.xsl -foout test.fo.xml

    I've googled for the annoying messages FOP 1.0 spits out, and found
    quite a few complaints, but no resolution. So here are my questions
    to you:

    When converting DocBook XML to PDF, using xsltproc and the DocBook
    XSL style sheets version 1.77.1 (it's not specific to that version,
    just saying), I get a gazillion warnings like this:

    SEVERE: Image not found. URI: ../common/images/note.svg. ...

    They're just warnings, but they clutter up the output so that it's
    hard to spot real problems such as overflow issues.

    (1) Any idea what causes those warnings? We're not using SVG images
    at all, just PNG files. Particularly, we're not using files in
    ../common/images (there's no such directory for any of our books).

    (2) Assuming it's some FOP-internal thing (a bug?) that cannot be
    fixed on our end, is there a workaround to stop FOP from issuing
    those warnings?

    (3) How would I find out the exact FOP version I'm using? (I'm
    thinking maybe it's a bug that would be fixed by upgrading to a
    newer version.) When running "fop --version" it just reports "1.0".

    Thanks much for any pointers!
