Because it's generated during the build process. Check build/src.

Looks like someone didn't follow the code conventions. I don't think
there's any special reason for that. Thanks for pointing it out.

RE: Black images

2002-07-30 Thread Darrel Riekhof

FYI, the temporary fix was to replace org.apache.fop.image.JpegImage in fop-0.20.3 and 
fop-0.20.4 with the version of this class in fop-0.20.2.  Now JPEGs with ICC profiles 
come in as before.

Code questions:

1)  Why isn't the org.apache.fop.fo.properties package included in the source?

2)  Why do the Fop developers capitalize some method names?  For example:

  public static FopImage Make(String href)


Thanks again Jeremias, you were a huge help for us.

Thanks Jeremias,

I will check bugzilla.  Thanks a bunch for the code hints, we will try that.

Probably. Support was added for JPEG images to be embedded directly into
PDF. Until then JPEGS were read into memory by Jimi and written to the
PDF as a normal bitmap equal to the way GIFs and PNGs are written (using
non-lossy ZLib compression). So probably, Jimi was able to open those
JPEG images but something goes wrong today with the JPEGs that are
directly embedded in a PDF.

As the whole image support stuff is rather hardcoded at the moment, you
might want to try to modify org.apache.fop.images.FopImageFactory and
org.apache.fop.images.analyser.ImageReaderFactory to comment out JPEG
support. That will restore the way JPEG images were handled back in
0.20.2. But you will get bigger PDFs.

This is of course a short-term work-around. We still need to find out
the real problem. Would you mind checking BugZilla, if there's already
an entry for this problem? If not, please open a new bug report and add
one or two of your problem-JPEGs as an attachment. This way we can fix
it eventually. No idea if I get to have a look at it, because I wanted
to work mostly on the redesign during the next few weeks. So takers are
welcome.

I hope this clears it up a bit.

RE: Black images

2002-07-26 Thread Darrel Riekhof

We found the same thing.  We also found that images with ICC Profiles display 
correctly in FOP 0.20.2, but appear as black boxes in FOP 0.20.3 and 0.20.4.

Anyone know what happened between .2 and .3 that would break this?

Is there a way to strip out the ICC Profile of an image at runtime?  Our users are not 
terribly technical, asking them to not upload images with ICC Profiles may be a little 
too much for them.

I've experienced similar problems. I've found if you remove the option for
"ICC Profile:" in the "Save As" dialog the image will render properly in the
PDF. I assume this option adds some data to the jpg resulting in the display
problem not only with FOP and PDFs but I've had problems in the past with
other applications as well.

This problem occurs when i save the jpg image in Photoshop (i use version
5.0). When i convert it with ACDSee (for example), the problem is resolved.

But I don't know, where's the problem in FOP+Photoshop JPGs.

Some images, when FOP embeds them in the PDF, show up as all black
rectangles.  The size of the image is correct.  However, this only occurs if
you are using 16 bit color or higher.  If you lower the color res down to
256 colors, then images always show up in the pdf in acrobat reader.  Client
is Win2000, Acrobat Reader 5, Fop server process is running on red hat linux
7.2 server, fop 2.0.3.

I think this behavior only started happening in FOP 2.0.3, but I'm not
totally sure about this.  I can't figure out if it is an acrobat or fop
thing.  Is this a known issue with FOP?  Anyone found a work-around for
this?

black images

2002-02-18 Thread fred redf

Hi all,
I don't know if it is a bug, so i don't want to
overload bugzilla for the moment. My prob is : I'm
inserting jpg images in my pdf content, and sometimes,
the picture is replaced by a black box whose
dimensions are the dimensions of my image. Obviously,
those images are ok in my html browser...
Any clue?
Thanks in advance,
Fred.
