It appeared evident to me (and to others, as I discovered later) that jfor and FOP are doing different things but could be an advantage for both jfor developers, jfor users, FOP users and FO visibility in general to join forces. Bertrand, here attached, is the main developer behind the project and he already agreed on donating the code to the ASF. IMO, rather than creating another project, it would be best to merge jfor code with FOP to allow yet another (and widely used) binary format to render FO in. Technical details are not that important at the moment, but Bertrand already stated his flexibility in reshaping jfor code in order to make it easier/cleaner/more-manageable the merging. This said, in order for the donation to take place, I'm officially requesting a vote from the FOP developers community. The Apache XML PMC is already informed and will accept any position taken by the community. So, here it is, please vote on the following question: would you like to accept jfor code and give Bertand Delacretaz committer status in order to perform the merging on the FOP code following the technical directions that the FOP dev community will find more appropriate? I remind that only people with committer status are entitled to place a binding vote, but I suggest everybody on this list to express their vote and, in case of negative vote, explain their reasons so that we can properly deal with them. Thanks to all. Stefano. P.S.

The workaround is to tplit the image into two images that fit in a page by manually using Gimp or Photoshop and modifying your FO accordingly.

RE: Logs, logs and more logs
Hi Christopher,
Very good points, but I think this is a discussion that needs to
happen at a higher level. FOP needs to cooperate with Cocoon, and Cocoon is
committed to Avalon. If Avalon adopted Trunk, or did something similar, it
would fix FOP and Cocoon at the same time with little effort on FOP's part.
I forwarded your message to the Avalon developer's list at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Does Trunk's licence allow Avalon devs to
mine it for ideas if they don't decide to adopt it unaltered? Moreover, are
the Trunk team okay with that? The Avalon team does a pretty good job of
giving credit, but sometimes people get upset if they don't totally adopt
their solution. You can subscribe to the Avalon list at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] if you want and I'm sure they'd like
your input, especially if you were willing to review their similar proposal.
(and I lost the link to that...) They're very willing to listen.

Subject: Logs, logs and more logs
At our company we have have found a solution to the logging dilemma and
think FOP should do the same.
At this point there seems to be several ways to log errors within a Java
application:
1. JDK 1.4's new Logging API's
2. Log4J
3. Log Kit
4. Avalon's Loggable interface
5. Some new JDK compatible API's
The worst part about this situation is that one component might use Log4J
and another part of the same application may depend on Log Kit. So now your
logs are spread all over the place within the same application.( Our
company is writing a Swing application that had this exact problem. )
The solution is:
Logging should be done in the same way JDBC is done. There should be one
set of interfaces and multiple drivers. Log Kit and Log4J considered the
equivalent of JDBC drivers such as Oracle, DB2 etc...
We put together Trunk ( http://www.openinstitute.org/trunk/ ) as a
collection of Interfaces compatible with multiple drivers.
From the Trunk Docs:
LoggingDriver.getDriver()
* liGet the value of the
ttorg.openinstitute.trunk.LoggingDriver/tt system property,
* which must be a class that implements the {@link
LoggingDriver}
interface.
Example Usage:
Logger LOGGER = LoggingDriverFactory.getDriver().getLogger(
SomeApplication.class );
LOGGER.info(Hello world!);
Now FOP can use any driver such as Log4J or Log Kit.

RE: Avalon?
FOP needs at all levels the ability to log errors and messages. System.out is fine for CLI applications, but not for most embedded applications or servers. We could have used Log4J instead, but the rest of Apache XML is using LogKit and it suited our needs. Avalon is the place where common Design Patterns are implemented as a common component repository. With the combined might of all our projects, we can have confidence that every component is the best designed and best implemented possible, where no one project would have the resources to do so. You are correct that it is theoretically possible to make FOP faster and lighter without using any extra libraries like Avalon. If we made our own custom XML parser optimized for FO, that would also be true, but we still use Xalan and Xerces. We just don't have the resources or interest in pursuing it. -Steve -Original Message- From: Christopher Burkey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2001 4:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Avalon?

RE: Getting started FOP question
When debugging, it's a good idea to run any XSL:T seperate from processing the result XSL:FO so you can figure out which part is messing up if there are problems. If you see xsl:* tags in in your FO, you've got a problem in your XSL:T. While FOP can be asked to convert XSL:T to XSL:FO and then process it, this really isn't an atomic operation.

It should build fine if you do. -Steve -Original Message- From: Sam Ruby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2001 8:56 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [GUMP] Build Failure - Fop This email is autogenerated from the output from: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/gump/2001-08-21/xml-fop.html Build results exceed maximum length.Please see URL above for details. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Calling FOP from xsql
FOP CVS requires all kinds of jars in the classpath you don't have like xalan, xerces, avalon-framework, logkit, (Are jimi, batik and the rest optional?), etc. For the rest, you may need to ask on an XSQL mailing list. If there is not a FOP serializer such as your example refers to, then you'll need to use a different class (one you may need to write). If there is one, then it is likely not updated with to the latest FOP, which again you'd need to ask someone on an XSQL list about. -Steve -Original Message- From: Raju Dave [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2001 7:40 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Calling FOP from xsql Hello, Small problem with xsql...

RE: Bookmarks
I just used the latest CVS FOP and was able to use internal and external links with no problem. The attribute changed from id to ref-id for the destination some time ago, maybe that is what you are noticing? basic-link color=blue internal-destination=whatever -Steve -Original Message- From: Chetan Vig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 20, 2001 11:13 AM To: fop Subject: Bookmarks Hi, I noticed that the PropertyMapping files have been deleted in the new Release (I have FOP 0.20.1 dated 08/20/01 03:00 am version). As a result the bookmarks feature of the PDF is missing. I would appreciate if you somebody could take a look at that.

Cocoon 2 FOP: Sharing SAX events
Whups. John's recent Cocoon 2 patch did not update to FOP 0.20 API, but was just adding PCL and PS as valid outputs and refactoring for the old FOP API. Peter West is doing some good work on serializing the parse events, and generally opening up FOP to be less like a black box. His code is still experimental, and not part of CVS yet however. I'm not sure what Cocoon's release schedule is, but FOP 0.20 has a number of major improvements that we'd like to get into Cocoon 2.0 final (like less than infinte memory required for large documents). BTW, John (as a Cocooner) is not subscribed to fop-dev, so please Cc him if there's anything you want him to know. -Steve -Original Message- From: John Morrison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 20, 2001 4:48 PM To: COFFMAN Steven Subject: RE: cocoon 2 Hi Steven, Sorry, I don't believe that my patch fixes it, all it really does (and dims did most of the refactoring) is add pcl and postscript to the available serializers. What we would like to do however is hook our SAX events straight into FOPs. How easy do you think it would be? J.

Does your patch work with the new version of FOP (which breaks the old API)? If so, cool, otherwise we'll try to get a patch out quick. -Steve - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: FOP does not rendering PDF in IE5.5 SP1
Hey Alex, (a bit off-topic to the list...) I use often the url like ./Myservlet?extension=.pdf in HTTP POST targets just like GET ones. Works fine. The wierd behavior with IE is often caused by repeated upgrades that have managed to miss a component or two. Although you can't really uninstall IE, you can download the full 30 meg binary and install custom and check everything (even making the grayed-out checks black ones). It usually solves the weird problems. These two things cause all my FOP servlets and servlets that return tab-dilineated text files to work fine, even with IE. -Steve -Original Message- From: Alex McLintock [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 17, 2001 4:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: FOP does not rendering PDF in IE5.5 SP1 --- COFFMAN Steven [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If you're servlet URL is http://www.myweb.com/servlet/Myservlet http://www.myweb.com/servlet/Myservlet then use http://www.myweb.com/servlet/Myservlet?extension=.pdf http://www.myweb.com/servlet/Myservlet?extension=.pdf so you know if IE's ignoring the Mimetype. If that's not it, then it's probably because you're using an older version of FOP. I believe (someone correct me) that IE should be ok with the latest release. -Steve There are a variety of problems with Microsoft's IE. This solution cures the problem for many people but I've also found situations where this extension isn't enough. (In particular you may be posting to the servlet in which case adding ?something=.pdf is innappropriate. In such circumstances you might need to 1) Name your servlet pdf so that the URL looks like http://www.myweb.com/servlet/MyservletPackage.pdf 2) Get your servlet to generate the pdf, save it to disk, send the browser a frameset which gets the browser to load the previously created PDF in one of the frames. PS make sure you have at least two frames else you'll confuse netscape :-) Hope this helps - I've been banging my head against this one for most of last week because *all* the machines I had access to worked fine, and almost all the machines used by my American users didn't work. We eventually tracked it down to a particular build of IE 5.5 sp1, and even getting the build number didn't guarantee which version was installed :-( Alex (Remember Folks, Any additions to the FAQ - post them here with a big sign saying ANSWER SHOULD GO IN THE FAQ) = Alex McLintock[EMAIL PROTECTED]Open Source Consultancy in London OpenWeb Analysts Ltd, http://www.OWAL.co.uk/ SF and Computing Book News and Reviews: http://news.diversebooks.com/ Get Your XML T-Shirt t-shirt/ at http://www.inversity.co.uk/ Do You Yahoo!?

RE: unicode-bidi in FOP 2.0?
Seeing as how FOP 1.0 isn't expected before decemeber, FOP 2.0 is too far off to make any plans. Core committers are more focussed on tables and such right now, but some of the past patch contributors were interested in seeing it happen, so I can't say. -Steve -Original Message- From: Tony Graham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 13, 2001 5:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: unicode-bidi in FOP 2.0? In the fop-dev archive at marc.theaimsgroup.com, the references that I can find to unicode-bidi amount to little more than an acknowledgement of its inclusion in the XSL spec.

RE: FOP failure
Hi Dane, The XSL-FO specification has changed a great deal, as has FOP in the interim between FOP 0.12 and FOP 0.19. You will need to either extensively update your FO document to conform to the specification, or downgrade to the old version of FOP. The latest spec (Candidate Recommendation) is here: http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/ -Steve -Original Message- From: Dane Foster [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2001 12:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: FOP failure Hello. I have an .fo file that fop 0.19 refuses to work with. The file was originally created against the 0.12 version of FOP. The document that the .fo file represents has been changed so I figured I should update FOP since I'm updating the .fo document. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mark's patch and code formatting
Ok, I hate to do more than two things in a commit, so I just applied Mark's original patch to CVS. If it breaks anything, it will be easier to track down the cause than if I did anything else at the same time. I missed Tore's codeformatting patch, and didn't codeformat it myself. I'm going to use astyle -a -s4 javafile and commit in a sec. If astyle breaks something, I want it to be a seperate issue than from my interpretation of Mark's patch. Marker support is broken until the areaTree methods (getPreviousPage and getNextPage) are reimplemented in StreamRenderer. It shouldn't be too difficult, but I again like to make my commits atomic. -Steve - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(Thanks to Darren Munt for giving me some examples of the problem here).This leaves only the force-page-count as a "known issue" (ie something I haven't looked at yet) I have also added code to deal with root extensions but I don't have any examples to test with; if someone could tell me what I should use, that would help (because root extensions are *completely* untested).Feedback/bug reports welcome!CheersMark
