Antwort: page numbering problem...
Hi wali, I creat a PDF document which have reports for different customers. One document can contain many reports. Now I want to mark the pages for reports individually. i.e. ... Every new report starts at new page. and every report can consist of different number of pages. Create a page sequence for each report. If you are creating the FO via XSLT, and if you have the reports in individual XML elements (here called report), you can use something like xsl:template match=report fo:page-sequence master-name=report initial-page-number=1 fo:static-content flow-name=xsl-region-before xsl:textReport /xsl:text xsl:value-of select=title /fo:static-content fo:static-content flow-name=xsl-region-after fo:blockfo:leader leader-pattern=rule leader-length =max//fo:block fo:block text-align=endxsl:textPage /xsl:textfo:page-number//fo:block /fo:static-content fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body xsl:apply-templates/ /fo:flow /fo:page-sequence /xsl:template Tailor this to your needs. Of course you'll have to define a page master report (you may have different page masters for the title page, the TOC, appendices etc.) HTH Joerg Pietschmann - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
AW: Embedding fop in IE..Help!!!
What you do is printing CHARACTER data!! Try this: code OutputStream os = response.getOutputStream(); os.write(binary-data/); os.close(); /code Cheers Christian -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Rajagopal.

I am able to open other Static pdfs. This is what i do, i create a bytearrayoutputstream which will hold the output of the render and then use a pageContext.getOut().print(bytearrayoutputstreamobject); and this results in printing binary content on the screen.. I assume this is bcoz IE doesnt recognize the content type and print jst prints it on the screen, whereas Netscape understands the Content Type and displays it as a PDF. I tried to create a servlet which will generate the PDF(using streams to generate the output) and it works in IE and Netscape. Now, is it not possible to render a PDF using JSP(especially on IE)?? IS there a way? Thanks Raj --- Amit [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Can you open other pdf files (via a link in a html page) in IE? Rajagopal.

It is displaying garbage on teh screen. All i get is binary characters for the PDF File. I have IE 5.5 Sp1. and i tried all the workarounds. These are the ones I tried 1) Changed the name of the file to be .pdf so that IE will look at the extension and treat it as PDF 2) Bloated the file size to be more than 8k so that there is no buffer problem with IE 3) Downloaded the Fo file generated and ran the fo command line and it generates the PDF properly(as an application). So there is nothing wrong with the FO. IS there any other way to get a PDF on IE? Im not sure why im getting binary content all over the screen? Please HElpp... TIA Raj __ Do You Yahoo!?

Antwort: XML parser question
Willie Wu wrote: Is it possible to configure FOP to use a XML parser other than Xerces? In my existing app, I'm already using Crimson, which I want to reuse for FOP. Yes, it is possible. It's a little bit arcane, though: you'll have to set the javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory service to the full classname of your parser factory implementation class. You can set the service by creating a META-INF/services directory in your classpath (may be in a jar file) and create a file with the name javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory and with the aforementioned class name as the only content. There may be other ways, ask a local guru. I'm not sure whether crimson comes already with a parser factory implementation, ask a local guru. Check your crimson distribition whether the precompiled jar already contains such a file in the META-INF/services directory, if so, you'll only need to put this jar into the classpath instead of the Xerces jar. Be sure to place it before the Xalan and the FOP jar. HTH Joerg Pietschmann - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Antwort: Calling FOP with strings rather than filenames
Hi, Bob, you can do it but FOP isn't exactly optimized for your problem. You'll have to do the following steps: 1. Create an XSL transformer factory: TransformerFactory tfactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance(); 2. Create a transformer with your XSL string source: Transformer transformer = tfactory.newTransformer( new StreamSource(new StringReader(xslString))); 3. Create a FOP driver, set any parameters you want. Driver driver=new Driver(); driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF); driver.setOutputStream(outStream); 4. Invoke the transform() method of the transformer, supplying the XML string as a source and the FOP driver as the result: transformer.transform(new StreamSource( new StringReader(xmlString)), new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler)); Look at java.xml.transform (from the Xalan or j2ee distribution) for details about creating and invoking Transformers and dealing with ErrorListener stuff. BTW you can save a great deal of memory and processor capacity if you can get your program parts to communicate via SAX events instead of strings. You'll need a FOP 0.20.2 distribution for doing the above. All untested, as i'm using something more convoluted due to FOP 0.20.1 legacy. HTH anyway.

block centering and entities
Is this a bug? Let me explain: I have a block that should be centered on the screen. Sometimes it contains the '' sign and sometimes it does not. When it does not, the block is centered correctly. When it has an '' sign, my code translates it to the entity representation 'amp;' and it is then fed into the translation. When it renders the document, the text is now off-center. It looks like it is centering on the text with the entity (i.e. Pamp;ON Value Added Services) and not the translated text(i.e. PON Value Added Services). Is this correct? Am I doing something wrong?

sending PDF directly to printer
Anyone know how to send the generated PDF directly to the printer. I'm generating a PDF and using IE. By default it invokes the PDF File Open ([FileOpenEx(%1)]), but I want to invoke the PDF Print ( [FilePrintSilentEx(%1)]). Basically, I need the doc to print without the user seeing it on the screen.

Problems with hyphenation and links
Dear FOP developers, I sent a message to this list last week describing various problems that I've encountered with FOP (look for Probs with underline, background, hyphenation, svg and more). No-one has replied :-( It would be really good to get someone's opinion, especially with these two which I don't have a work-around for: Hyphenation: Hyphenation works when there is more than one word in the block. If there is only one word in the block, it is not hyphenated. I think it should be. If I have one word in the block and the source has whitespace before and after it, I get a run-time error. Here's the example: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? fo:root xmlns:fo=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format; fo:layout-master-set fo:simple-page-master margin-right=25mm margin-left=25mm margin-bottom=20mm margin-top=15mm page-height=297mm page-width=210mm master-name=a4 fo:region-before extent=10mm/ fo:region-after extent=10mm/ fo:region-body margin-bottom=15mm margin-top=15mm/ /fo:simple-page-master /fo:layout-master-set fo:page-sequence master-name=a4 fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body fo:block language=en hyphenate=true Thisparagraphwillbehyphenated becauseithasmorethanonewordinit andthisseemstoworkok.

padding in table-row
I'm attempting to use padding-top and padding-bottom to put some space between rows of a table. These attributes don't seem to be working in table-row, but the desired result can be achieved using padding in table-cell.
