Help required
Hi there, Can anyone guide me how to add hyphenation for Japanese language? I have got .tex file for SJIS i.e. SJIS.tex, but according to FOP's documentation, I need to convert it in .xml file. I don't know how to convert it. So, please guide for the same. regards, Sanket.
Re: Help required
Best to use the FOP-USER list for these questions, the same people are on both list, but actually more can help you on FOP-USER. Also, please make your subject line meaningful to help for later archive retrieval.

FOP hangs.. Need help
Version: 0.20.5 Issue: To convert a XSL-FO to PDF format, I am using the code taken from ExampleFO2PDF.java available on http://xml.apache.org/fop/embedding.html#ExampleFO2PDF. While running this code, it hangs. Can someone help what could be the issue. Note: The size of XSL-FO file is around 225MB. Thanks JP
[Proposal] I volunteer to help with 0.20.6
Hi, gang! I'm Anton Tagunov, a committer with Avalon and Excalibur apache projects. I'm afraid I have not been much active withing these projects lately, but I've still got the commit priviliges and an active apache account. I have a full understanding of current situation @fop: 0_20_2 branch has been frozen and all efforts have been directed at reacheing 1.0 release. On the other hand there has not been a release for quite a while. The only thing available to users is 0.20.5. And I do know that a massive refactoring has happened on the path to 1.0. And I do know that 0.20.5 code is a bit messy which in the beginning caused the refactoring. However, being practicle we (I work for Deutsche Bank now) definetely need fop NOW. We do use 0.20.5. And we do have local patches for it. I feel these patches may be of a certain value to others too. Also I would also like to leverage public review available with open source. Besides we do have at least several patches against 0.20.5 flying around cvs. To make a long story short this is what I propose: * I go over bugzilla and collect reasonable patches * I collect my own patches * as I don't have carma for xml-fop I create one cummulative patch available as www.apache.org/~atagunov/fop/patch.diff * I create a 0.20.6-RC1 and make available at www.apache.org/~atagunov * this release candidate is accompanied with one question: please make sure that there has been no degradation against 0.20.5 * announcement(s) are made via regular apache news channels - [EMAIL PROTECTED], they go to planetapache, etc. * after one or more release candidates some of the peoples with appropriate carma commits changes to cvs (yes, I know there may be issues with re-adding the files back around xml-fop/src/org but that should be solvable one general concensus is reached) and 0.20.6 is released The mantra of 0.20.6 would be: no new features, not much labor, go for low-hanging fruit and fix what is easy to fix and for what patches are already available. That should be relatively easy. Piece of cake. On the upside FOP project which has not had releases for quite a while while gains some more visibility and showes it is alive. 0.20.6 announcements will be accompanied with a big fat comment that it is just a bug-fix and the real paradize is expected with 1.0. I do understand the nature of software development. I do understnad you're at 1.0-dev. I honestly hope some day I will find enought time and enery to dig into that. But being practical this is what I can offer fop community right now: assistance in 0.20.6 release. Low-hanging fruit. Light bug fixing. Perhaps Victor and/or some other patch authors would assist.

[Proposal] I volunteer to help with 0.20.6, part II
amendment: It really is not such a nonsense as it may seem, Tomcat 3.x.y piecfully co-exist with 4 and 4 coexists with 5. To reduce mess in the cvs if this proposal is wellcomed we could create a svn subdir, something like fop-0-20-2-maintain. Let me repeat again: I will ask PMC not to vote for the release if I get bogged down into anything but most simplisting bug fixing. Just go through Bugzilla and apply most evident and simple patches. And then ask people: has anthing become worse since 0.20.5. (What really killed me in 0.20.5 were troubles with table rendering when cells do have a background. And awt renderer produced pour-quality images cause it used int-based Graphics interface not a double-based one. And I have patch for that too. But some other patches as simple is that are floating around, some hyphenation patch.) cheers, Anton - http://mobile.ngs.ru/games - Java- ... http://love.ngs.ru -

Refactoring was started because it is too difficult to implement keep-* properties into the maintenance code because of it architecture.

Besides we do have at least several patches against 0.20.5 flying around cvs. What a small world. My company is working with Deutsche bank (London) on a project involving FOP. At the moment they are our only customer who still work with FOP. Most of our customers must have XEP to get keep-* properties. This is the one area that FOP really falls down on. If FOP had keep-* properties it would be used much more. That is why we must focus our energies on the redesign. snip/ The mantra of 0.20.6 would be: no new features, not much labor, go for low-hanging fruit and fix what is easy to fix and for what patches are already available.

In a way I agree with you, and it looks like you will be taking on most of the work for yourself, and thus minimising the distraction from HEAD development. But I would much rather you concentrated on HEAD. Doing more development of a frozen architecture is only going to encourage more users for a dead code base.

But being practical this is what I can offer fop community right now: assistance in 0.20.6 release. Low-hanging fruit. Light bug fixing. I have to say I think I'm against doing a 0.20.6. I dont like being negative toward someone who wants to improve the code, but I think its for the best if 1.0 stands a chance. And I know whats it like not having much time, most of the other committers are in the same boat. Yet we have all made at least some contributions towards the 1.0 effort. I would like to see you doing the same. snip/ Chris

The dev list is really for discussing internal work on FOP. I believe your goal should be to create a servlet that serves Tiff images up. You can reference the Tiff images from an XSL-FO document using a HTTP URL, via the fo:external-graphic tag. FOP can then be called on the XSL-FO document to generate a PDF, and you can do this within another servlet if you need to. May I also suggest that you get yourself a good book on XSL-FO and learn the basics before attempting to implement a solution based on XSL-FO. snip/ Chris __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

the problem is. I was stuch by this. Please help me.
Here is the peice of codes. Would you please take a

BTW, the binary data format from database which will

the web in pdf format, it is not necessary to convert
it into pdf first.
thanks,

It is not clear from your example whether your data is usable by
FOP.
FOP is designed to process XML files, specifically XSL-FO or
Formatting objects.
You state on your message and in comments that the binary data is
in a TIFF format. You move this data around, eventualy passing it
to the FOP Driver object. I don't think this is at all reasonable
as a TIFF object is definitely not going to be accepted by the SAX
parser used in FOP.
You need to read the FOP examples again.

Re: AW: help with upload the ssh key
Glen Mazza wrote: Thanks, Peter, that helped a lot--I downloaded puttygen and am working with it now. Three more questions if anyone can help: 1) I guess we're to use SSH2 and not SSH1, but does it matter whether we use DSA or RSA? Is one much slower than the other? I'll use DSA--it apparently works for you and Joerg. I don't know whether DSA or RSA is preferable, but SSH2 is definitely preferable to SSH1. 2) Also, you placed your public key in authorized_keys, not authorized_keys2 like Joerg has. (Both of you are using DSA apparently.) Also, PuttyGen seems to indicate that authorized_keys is only for SSH1/RSA and authorized_keys2 is for SSH2 (RSA or DSA version). Does this matter--shouldn't you have yours in authorized_keys2? When I set mine up (at the same time as Joerg) I recall having to use authorized_keys2 (and biting off chunks of my keyboard discovering that.) Since then, I think the situation has changed and the use of authorized_keys2 is deprecated (or so I was told recently on a RH9 list.) 3) To use Putty on my work computer (besides my one at home--where I've just created the key), should I create another private/public key pair, and append the public key to my authorized_keys/keys2 file, or just transfer my private key to the second computer (via floppy disk, etc.)--what is the more usual/accepted practice? When I was working with Putty to a Linux server, I found that it was easiest to generate the keys on the linux machine, move the private key to Windows, and use the import facility in Putty. Work environments tend to be a bit insecure, especially it you are using pageant (or ssh-agent on linux) to save having to key in the passphrase. If you are accessing the repository from both your work and home machines though, it doesn't seem to make much sense to have different keys. I used the key i have already used for accessing jfor's cvs repository at sourceforge. I created the key about 6 month ago with puttygen. I ran it on my local computer (win2000 prof.). But you cannot use the files which puttygen creates when you click on one of the save buttons. Instead i copy-and-pasted the content of the Public key for pasting into OpenSSH authorized_keys2 file-textbox. Peter -- Peter B. West http://www.powerup.com.au/~pbwest/resume.html
help with upload the ssh key
Hi, now that i got an cvs.apache.org account i'd need some help with uploading the ssh key. I'd like to use putty for ssh access. So i logged in on cvs.apache.org, copied my public key file (generated by puttygen) into my home directory and tried to add it with gpg. But all i get is the error this is not a pgp file. I also tried to convert my public key file into OpenSSH format, or create a new public/private key pair using ssh-keygen but nothing works. I also tried to generate a new public/private key pair with gpg. That works but there is no private key file generated, which i have to pass to putty/plink. Do i even have to use gpg? Or do i just have to copy the public key file into a directory? Hope i did not blame myself with such a newbie question :-) Any help appreciated. Peter Herweg

No. GPG/PGP is for encrypting/signing files and mails. There are currently three widely used public key schemes: GPG/PGP/OpenPGP, X.509 (certificates) and SSH, each using its own format for storing keys and associated information. Confused? Or do i just have to copy the public key file into a directory? Yes. It depends on whether you generated a DSA or a RSA key. I got a DSA key and uploaded it into the _file_ ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 (the name is important and different from the filename used by ssh-keygen, on purpose, you can use multiple public keys by concatenating them into this file) The .ssh directory and the file should be world readable. Do a web search on ssh keygen, there are a few tutorials. I got mine working this way, after nearly biting bits off my keyboard. J.Pietschmann

Re: AW: help with upload the ssh key
Thanks, Peter, that helped a lot--I downloaded puttygen and am working with it now. Three more questions if anyone can help: 1) I guess we're to use SSH2 and not SSH1, but does it matter whether we use DSA or RSA? Is one much slower than the other? I'll use DSA--it apparently works for you and Joerg. 2) Also, you placed your public key in authorized_keys, not authorized_keys2 like Joerg has. (Both of you are using DSA apparently.) Also, PuttyGen seems to indicate that authorized_keys is only for SSH1/RSA and authorized_keys2 is for SSH2 (RSA or DSA version). Does this matter--shouldn't you have yours in authorized_keys2? 3) To use Putty on my work computer (besides my one at home--where I've just created the key), should I create another private/public key pair, and append the public key to my authorized_keys/keys2 file, or just transfer my private key to the second computer (via floppy disk, etc.)--what is the more usual/accepted practice?

Take a look at the source of Configuration.java for yourself. Not 100% certain that configuration is the problem, but earlier versions of FOP were renowned for multi-threading problems.

Re: Build problems... please help/advise...
Hi, I'm new to FOP, just joined the mailing list and I'm not sure what exactly is going on so I'd *really* appreciate it if someone could explain how to build FOP from the latest src (if it is even possible). I've been unable to build FOP from the src archive as of 3/11. A couple of the error messages I get are: I just did a build and it seems fine. The problem appears to be the version of batik that you have in the classpath. The batik javadocs you are refering to below are from june and are probably outdated. Make sure you are using the version of batik from cvs and there is no other batik in the classpath.

It does not define java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D getBounds(org.apache.batik.gvt.TextNode) from interface org.apache.batik.gvt.TextPainter. and so on until the build fails... The first error can be corrected by calling createDocument instead of createSVGDocument. createSVGDocument is an undefined API on SAXSVGDocumentFactory so I'm not sure how anyone has been able to compile this (ref: http://xml.apache.org/batik/javadoc/org/apache/batik/dom/svg/ SAXSVGDocumentFactory.html ). The second error is due to the fact that PSTextPainter claims to implement TextPainter (ref: http://xml.apache.org/batik/javadoc/org/apache/batik/gvt/ TextPainter.html ) but is in fact missing API implementations, among which getBounds is one. In fact I believe the implementation of PSTextPainter.getOutline(TextNode node) is altogether wrong insofar as PROXY_PAINTER isa StrokingTextPainter whose getOutline method takes a TextNode *and* a boolean (ref: http://xml.apache.org/batik/javadoc/org/apache/batik/gvt/renderer/ StrokingTextPainter.html ). According to the mailing list archives PSTextPainter was recently submitted and added to the repository (ref: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fop-devm=104737262930539w=2 and http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fop-devm=104735385419249w=2 ). Perhaps everyone is using a different version of Java than I am ;-) but if not, then I'm wondering how anyone is able to build FOP given these defects? Am I the only one whose tried to build FOP from scratch in the past 2 days?

You can get that easier by specifying build -verbose on the command

:-) I wasn't really Sam Ruby who had a problem, it was Gump
(http://jakarta.apache.org/gump) that had problems and it was Gump that
sent a nag mail to the mailing list notifying us of a build problem. The
problem is probably unrelated to what you're experiencing.
Are you using Ant 1.4 or older? Maybe it's because of that. Anyway, if
you don't have anything in your CLASSPATH environment variable (which is
usually a bad idea) and are using the build.bat script we supply you
shouldn't have any problems building FOP.
If you have problems building it's usually a good idea to try build
clean followed by build to force a full rebuild. The above seems to
be a partial build.
Good luck.

Check whether your font has a glyph for the mentioned characters. At least the #xff63; etc. seem to be fairly unusual (ASCII variants, full width). The double #8225; (double dagger) shouldn't have a problem with a proper Unicode font. I think none of the characters will work with the any of the default fonts.

Help with Forrest
I have been able to eliminate the need for frames in my documantation by getting dynamic inline frames to work in NS7.0, Mozilla 1.2.1 and IE6. This requires that a javascript file be included in each of the affected files. I need some advice on how best to get this to work with Forrest. Do I need to include some form of redundant lining to the htmlized code files? Can I otherwise express such files (with javascript: links) in XML?

Re: Help with Forrest
Not a specialist on Forrest or Cocoon, yet, but I think it probably needs among other things an additional map:match element with a custom stylesheet, such as the one for the compliance document.

No JVM memory overflow occured. Modern hardware with sufficient physical RAM and appropriate JVM settings should be faster at least by a factor of 10. The average page rendering time reported for FO documents similar in structure to yours is usually 0.5s to 1s. Again, you seem to use hardware which simply isn't up to the task. 1. Get FOP 0.20.5rc, which should be a bit faster than 0.20.4 2. Check the load on your machine. Kill unnecessary processes. 3. Get a guru to check your machine's configuration, in particular memory available to user tasks, process priorities and perhaps VM configuration and IO bandwidth. 4. Check whether your machine has enough physical RAM (256M is ok) 5. Check your JVM memory settings, the memory allocated to the JVM should not exceed the physical RAM, or your process will swap itself to death 6.

FOP performance - frustrating.. help!!
Hello, I'm getting a little frustrated with FOP performance. We are generating an XML on the fly that contains a few tables with about 1,000 rows in total. We passdown this XML along with XSL to the transformer to generate PDF from our servlet. (transformer.transform( inXML, new SAXResult( driver.getContentHandler())); ) It works well, but it works slow. It takes about 5 minutes for 1,000 rows and this is only for transformer translation (excluing any data query time or jdom XML building time) I read through past emails/FAQs and I think I tried them all and it still does not improve the performance... Please help!! Here is what I have done. 1) run with more memory - yes I tried with 512MB (I don't get OutOfMemory error) 2) run in separate VM - only helps other requests coming to the site 3) try with the latest FOP - I did - mine is fop-0.20.4 4) try with the latest xalan.jar and xerces.jar - tried them, but no improvement 5) cache XSL style sheet - didn't really help... 6) use multiple page-sequence - got it to work and I don't get OutOfMemeory exception, but still performance didn't get better. (even if I break them into multiple page-sequences, I will still have to read through one row at a time, right? - that's why performance is not really improving..) 7) no forward-reference - I don't have any page numbers 8) try with new JDK - trying with JDK 1.3 9) seralize servlet request - haven't done this, but I doubt this will have any performance impact (I'm testing with one request for now) 10) no images - I don't have any... 11) Don't make the XML tree too deep - mine is very flat with 2 levels deep.

Antwort: FOP performance - frustrating.. help!!
It works well, but it works slow. It takes about 5 minutes for 1,000 rows and this is only for transformer translation (excluing any data query time or jdom XML building time) When you prepare an actual FO file for us to see, please check how long xalan takes for the xml-fo translation step. Just to make sure.. As for your XML file: you may want to try rewriting the elements below the row node as attributes of the row node. Since you are generating the files on the fly, this should improve performance a little. With 1000 row elements, thats about 1 less nodes to process. If and how much this saves depends on the DOM and xslt processor you use, of course. In general, I find the 5 minutes you state a little long. FOP does have severe performance problemes with large tables, but not that bad. We generate a 30 page document of this kind in about 40 seconds on a 1Ghz Athlon. One thing that you could try is to increase the java heap to 1024MB. 512MB is not excessive for the kind of document you state. Maybe you don't get out of memory messages so far, but if memory is tight, the JVM will garbage collect a lot - and this is costly for FOP. Try to find a heap size where no garbage collection is necessary during processing of a single document. One other thing: If you generate PDFs that are costly in terms of CPU and/or memory, think about generating the PDFs in the background, then email them to your web site's visitors. If your use case could live with that, I'd go that route. Even with a FOP that's 20 times faster, you'll have a hard time guaranteeing a certain quality of service for your web site. At the very least, you'd have to use a rendering queue with a pool of renderers since you don't have infinite memory (I suppose).

I also have speed issues, but not this bad. One thing I do is put a block around the whole table that sets up my default font.

RE: help!!!
Rewriting FOP in C++ is not impossible, though it may be quite difficult. I'm really not sure what the rest of your questions are, but I'd say it's going to take you quite a while to complete a project like that, and if your boss is telling you and you alone to rewrite FOP in C++, and you are only 22 with only one year of programming experience, there is either a labor shortage in your office or your boss' project management skills aren't stellar. What you might want to consider is showing your boss ways you can integrate FOP in its current implementation without rewriting it in C++. For example, if you're performing PDF generation with FOP from a C++ program, just write your source data to a file, fork a process that runs FOP on that file, and then read the resulting file in. Maybe it's not as elegant as having a pure C++ solution (though I find nothing about C++ elegant), but it will work with fewer bugs, and whereas it'll take you a long time to rewrite FOP in C++, this method would take you less than a day to implement. -Original Message- From: ehoo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 12, 2002 9:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: help!!!

Duplex print problem. Does someone could help ???
I don't whether this question is relevant here or not. But, I expect some answer from the experts in this group. Has any body successful in duplex printing through Java?

IvanLatysh, Did u try printing someother document throgh 1.4 print API? Are u able to do? I didn't try duplex printing, but tried to execute the PrintPS.java example supplied in the examples. But, I couldn't print the PostScript file. Even there is no printer tray available. I'm sure the PS file has the data. I have checked in the PS viewer.

Re: FOP Specialized Classloader: Request for Help #10379
Rhett, The way it seems to work is that the bug remains assigned to fop-dev, and anyone who want to add comments or attachments can go ahead. Consider it assigned to you. Keep the list in touch with what you are doing; think aloud about design issues and ask any specific questions as they arise. Most of us are working on particular areas, so you may not see any immediate responses, but if you keep us aware of what you are doing, folks can jump in with specific suggestions or objections. Don't be afraid to ask specific questions, and to ask them again if the answers aren't clear to you, or are non-existent. The initiative on this one is with you.

Re: help to get started on WebSphere 3.5
Hi, thank you for your response. I was asked to generate response letters offline. The letters will have a standard text with an exception of things like first name, last name, address etc. Because the letters are uniformed I have decided to have some sort of letter template and during the FOP process to plug in variables into the prearranged slots. The generated letters will be send as an attachment in form of PDF files to our clients. That is the scope. I have decided to use xsl-fo to create my letter templates and create DOM document that will consist purely of variable data that I will get from the data base. By running FOP I am planning to generate PDF files. I do have few years in developing with java/jsp. I did generate letters before using PdfLib. I am novice with XML, XSL, FOP. I about to create the following projects in our repository: Xerces(xerces.jar), Xalan(xalan.jar), FOP(fop.jar) and logkit(logkit.jar). I am not sure if I need anything else. I am going to use an embedded FOP and run it in the MAIN method. I would appreciate any help. John Cherny.

Hi Jason,
Thanks a million for code example.
Unfortunately I cannot use Websphere Application Developer, because we have troubles with
Websphere 4. I have to use Visual Age 3.5. As a matter of fact I do use WSAD to check syntax of
my XMLs. I am about to import few .jars: xerces.jar, xalan.jar, fop.jar, logkit.jar. Is there anything else
I need to create and configure?

You are asking for something big. Moreover, i can't
quite figure out what your actual requirements are.
The easiest way seems to be to contact your friendly
IBM support.
Other than that it would be useful to know:
1. How much experience do you have in running WebSphere
and deploying code for WebSphere?
2. How much experience do you have in Java programming
in general and in servlet/JSP stuff in particular?
3. How extensive have you already dealt with XML stuff?
4. How much experience do you have in developing
XSLT/XSLFO?
5. How much experience do you have in running FOP?
6. What do you mean by batch job? Conventionally
this is not used in assiciation with a web application
server.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am novice with XML, XSL, FOP. I suppose you already downloaded the latest binary release of FOP. First get some experience in running FOP by running some of the examples from the distribution from the command line. Check the documentation in the distribution for how to do this. If you got around this, start developing you own FO file to gain some more experience. Question related to FO design can be asked on the XSL list (http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list) or, if they are FOP specific, on the FOP-user list. After you have some working FO, design your input XML for the variable date and start to generate them using XSLT. Question related to XSLT design can be asked on the XSL list exclusively. For questions about XML design check out the FAQs, tutorials and lists listed on http://www.xml.org first. Check the documentation for how to run FOP using an XSL transformation. If you got some working XSLT code you can run it from the command line, start to embed FOP into your application. There is a file embedding.html delivered with FOP with some hints. Look also into the FOP servlet example in docs/examples/embedding. You don't run any MAIN method. There are also recurring issues you can find in the archives of the FOP lists http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fop-userr=1w=2# http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fop-devr=1w=2# For deploying FOP, you need all the jar files from the lib directory as well as fop.jar itself. If you want to deploy them as part of a WebSphere application, there are some pitfalls. I think they have been written about on the list, check the archives mentioned above.

If adding the requested encoding is machine/OS specific then should we encapsulate this issue by deriving from String? Either way, any change should be fully consistent with FOPs internationalisation mechansims.

Hi * , When I try to put content which has higher length compare to the cell of a particular column of the table then it extends to the next column if I used "wrap-option=no-wrap" attribute . But it will work fine if I used"wrap-option=wrap" attribute . My objective in first case is that rest of data should be lost, not to extend in next column .

RE: newbie needs help with relative address for image.
FYI - I still can't get this to work for a relative file path. Since I have
NT dev boxes and Unix QA and Prod, I have to feed the explicit PDF filepath
to the stylesheet as a parameter. I get the filepath form a
environment-level properties file. Still looking for that elusive XSLT
relative filepath if anyone has found it.
Here's our solution if it helps anyone:

Before i get to the meat, a net.cop note: Use meaningful subjects, don't mention crossposting (even if it is justified in the first place), don't bother the gurus in the dev lists, there are user lists. Is the problem in my XSL-FO? Is the problem in my SVG? Is the problem with Batik? Is the problem with FOP? Well, ultimately the problem is caused by a somewhat unlucky choice of the SVG standards group... An I/O error occured while processing the URI 'file:D:/Projects/Dev/#PurpleToWhite' specified on the element circle The url(#PurpleToWhite) in your circle element is a relative URL which was resolved to the absolute URL in the error message above, which, as it apparently represents a directory, is not a good source for SVG gradients. The reason why you got the absolute URL above depends on how you invoked FOP and perhaps a few other circumstances. In any case it has to point to a valid SVG file (or at least XML). This may be somewhat problematic as you probably generate the SVG inline in the FO tree. You could try 1. Have a separate SVG file and use it with fo:external-graphics 2. Have a separate SVG which contains only the gradient (and perhaps other SVG stuff you want to reference) and point an absolute URL to it: fill=url(file:///c:/refstuff/grad.svg#PurpleToWhite) 3. Same as above but use a relative URL fill=url(grad.svg#PurpleToWhite) This may be easier to deploy. Put the file in D:/Projects/Dev. 4. Let the URL refer to some location where the gradient could be retrieved, for example if the SVG code is embedded in your XSL, try fill=url(my.xsl#PurpleToWhite). Don't know whether this works, or whether this is even supposed to work. Expect a performance hit in all cases. Ultimately, both FOP and especially Batik should be fixed to make your code work as expected, but this will not only take some time but also some efford by a standard committee in order to make the semantics of this kind of references in embedded SVG clearer.

Scott Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Sorry about the subject line, but my previous subject SVG Problem with FOP got no replies. I read it but had real work to do. However, it still can't locate the gradient definition. It gives the following error An I/O error occured while processing the URL 'file:C:/Projects/Dev/Gradient.svg#PurpleToWhite' Try an absolute URL, with emphasis to the triple slash, as this is the correct form for file URLs. file:///C:/Projects/Dev/Gradient.svg#PurpleToWhite Check the location carefully. If this succeeds, you could try to set the baseDir configuration parameter to file:///C:/Projects/Dev/, search the FOP doc for how to do this (presumably in the userconfig.xml). The exception generated by Batik now identifies the correct file, but still can't seem to locate the gradient definition. The I/O-Error seems to indicate the generic problem of not getting some or all of the content of the file. Changing the content wont fix this. You may have to experiment a bit. For example, try access a small GIF from this directory as fo:external-graphic. If FOP gets an error with the GIF file, it's the directory or the URL syntax or something more general. If the GIF shows up, it's your SVG file, perhaps you should check well-formedness or SVG-validity or whatever. I really can't help much further, you'll have to solve the problem for yourself.
