Andrew Overholt updated DOXIA-53:
---------------------------------
Attachment: itext-xmloutput2.patch
maven-doxia-itext2.patch
Hi,
I am attempting to update the package of Doxia in Fedora. We have iText 2.1.7
and no earlier versions. Due to licensing concerns with previous versions [1],
I decided it may be easier to forward-port the old XML interfaces for use by
Doxia. I have attached 2 files, one of which is my forward-port patch of the
XML bits from iText 1.4.4 to 2.1.7 and the other is a patch to Doxia to use
iText 2.1.7 with this patch.
Everything builds successfully but I end up with test failures in
ITextSinkTestCase. Bruno, if you're listening, could you give a hint?
Thanks,
Andrew

> Pdf and Rtf support with the iText framework
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DOXIA-53
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-53
> Project: Maven Doxia
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Vincent Siveton
> Assignee: Vincent Siveton
> Fix For: 1.0-alpha-9
>
> Attachments: doxia_itext.zip, generated-doc.zip,
> itext-xmloutput2.patch, itext_plugin.zip, maven-doxia-itext2.patch
>
>
> Propose a Pdf/Rtf support with the iText framework for Doxia.
> Here is the architecture:
> - added an itext module in doxia-modules
> - created a doxia-doc-renderer (similar to doxia-site-renderer)
> - created an iText plugin for maven
> The iText module generates iText XML files. So, documents should be generated
> in Pdf or Rtf format (supported by iText).
> You could see the howto in the plugin for more information or try the project
> tests.
> According MPIR-17, we could be more generic by defining a new generated XML
> Doxia (I mean another DoxiaSink) and apply XSLT to generate other formats
> (like javahelp)
> Known limitations:
> - known limitations from the iText framework like roman list
> - i18n for the "table of contents" title
> - reports are not supported
> - Renderer for Fml and Xdoc format should be improved. Parsers suppose that
> the renderer is HTML.
> Attachments are:
> - doxia zip with diff (containing doxia-doc-renderer and doxia-module-itext)
> and resources
> - itext plugin zip with diff and resources
> - a zip containing generated documents for the site project (real examples)
