Re: Any real-life business use ?
Hello I´m using fop in a real java application. This application manages customer orders, invoices, articles and stock, to help the user in his shoes fabrication bussines. All the reports (invoices, orders, fabrication order and many list reports) are made using fop. The length of this report goes from 1 to 30 pages ~. All the report formats are pdf. The application generate XML files and my report system passes this xml file and a xsl file throw fop. The speed is good and also the final result for the user (my bosses). They use these reports in their real bussines (invoice, order, etc). Bye.

All in all, we're making good experience in using FOP+Cocoon2 for the production of technical documentation. Speed is no problem, even with many images, but requires certain precautions. Cocoon2 is not always at the hight of FOP, documentation on FOP is insufficient. We haven't succeeded yet in embedding fonts (FOP description seems not to work) and Unicode.

AW: FOP Extensions
Hi. Having downloaded fop 0.20.2-bin and -src, I had read the documentation about extensions. There is says to add my own extension, I better had a look at the source in org.apache.fop.extension. Unfortunately the only documented class is ExtensionObj, stating to be base class for extension objects. This is why I had to ask the list. What I have is code that can render data from a DOM tree and gives me a java.awt.Image, which I can then use in applications or convert to GIF images. Now I want to reuse that code within FOP. I assume in your words this means I want an area in the output, but I really do not know what an area actually is. For me it sounds more like graphics, but I do not want to use SVG since I'd have to recode what is already there. So if I choose 1 (see below), I need to do a similar sort of thing to all other fo objects. Does this mean I have to extend Area or FObj? For my understanding, I have to extend ExtensionObj, which also is an FObj and override the layout(Area) method. But then I do not know how to insert the image into the Area (do I have to extend that also?) and how to retrieve the DOM source (maybe that is done via the PropertyLists?).

Starting from this page: http://xml.apache.org/fop/extensions.html (it could be a bit better and there will be some examples one day) The default extensions are svg and the bookmarks so you can just use these. To make your own extension you need to consider what you want to do first. 1. do you want to put a formatting object area in the output, eg. some text, block etc. 2. do you want a graphic in the output, ie. somthing that could be done with svg 3. do you want to do some document specific settings such as what the bookmarks does also what version are you using, this is about the latest release. If 1. then you need to do a similar sort of thing to all other fo objects. If 2. then you setup a class that can get a DOM and turn it into SVG. If 3. then it is a bit more difficult. It doesn't say to extend ExtensionObj, this is just an example. More below... On 2002.01.10 18:15 Software AG wrote: Hi, there. Trying to create a FOP Extension I'm getting totally confused with the docs. The HTML document says to just have a look at org.apache.fop.extensions.* and implement the ExtensionObj interface. ExtensionObj is not an interface but a class, and hardly documented. So all I know is I need to overload the public Status layout(Area area) method. I have rendering code that eats a dom tree and spits out a java.awt.Image or GIF or whatsoever. Looking at the SVG extension code confused me more than it helped. From the list archives I could not derive a cookbook what to do. - What class do I have to extend: Area (like SVGArea) or ExtensionObj? You will likely need to extend FObj. - How is this new class going to get the DOM tree inside the fo:instream-foreign-object element? The same what that SVG gets the DOM - How is this new class going to pass the rendered image to FOP? ?? If you want SVG for the output then just do what the SVG does, ie. put the SVG DOM into an SVGArea. - How do I correctly register the new class so FOP will call it? As on the website include the following file /META-INF/services/org.apache.fop.fo.ElementMapping. In this file you need to put the fully qualified classname of your element mappings class. This class must implement the org.apache.fop.fo.ElementMapping interface. - What happens if I cannot provide name spaces on the elements?

RE: PostScript in pdf
Hi Is it possible to insert postscript commands to pdf created from Fop? Not really, but I think I might have a workaround. In the cvs version (the fop0.20.2 maintain version), it's possible to insert eps images. The eps image is passed as is to postscript printers (thus eps only works when printing to postscript printers and won't show when viewing with Acrobat). I guess you could create some postscript code with the proper DSC comments (%%BoundingBox) and no drawing instructions. If you add that image first thing in your documents headers, the image could contain the instructions to change tray. Tore I use Fop to create document which is printed from 2 trays.

And I don't seem to get much more than 1-2 pages generated per second (even when the servlet has already been called). Is this also your experience? I must say that I have attempted no optimisation. Any that you might suggest? How do handle load when several users are requesting reports simultaneously? Only accept patient users? 2) IE Bug Alex Mc Lintock wrote that, due to a bug in IE, he had to save the whole PDF file on disk. I think I have seen this: is this when the PDF file is interpreted as text and displayed as gibberish in the main navigation window? Has this not been resolved in later versions of IE? Has the bug been reported to the MSIE team?

FOP servlet use and SSL?
I'm working on a servlet that lets the user edit some fields and then generates a custom PDF on the fly to allow the user to preview their changes. All is fine and well but when I call response.setContentType( application/pdf ), IE gives me a message box saying this page has both secure and nonsecure items or some crap like that. Pressing No to View Nonsecure items? still brings up my PDF. I got rid of the part that actually creates the PDF and stopped processing at the setContentType call. When the call was turned off the message box went away and when I turned it back on it came back, so I'm 99% sure it's that call that's doing it. Does anyone know why setting your contentType to application/pdf on a webpage being delivered via SSL would make IE complain about nonsecure items on the page?

Re: Any real-life business use ?
We're using FOP to generate our monthly billing statements. We generate 70,000 statements+ a month in about a 4 hour period of time. Statements range from 1-10 pages. We set up OMR marks for our print shop and OCR fonts for the bank return slips. One way we increased speed was to fire the SAX events directly, instead of through a stylesheet. This also gave us a little more control over the content, whithout having to code FOP extensions. We sold it to our company in several ways. It's verry low cost (donation to apache.org), gave us control over look of statements and allowed our billing question department to view the exact bill the client recieved. It also runs on AS/400's.

InputStream and OutputStream use in FOP servlet
Hi, I use FOP to generate a PDF file from an XML file With a XSL/FO transformation. The generation is made in a servlet. Actually, I use the method described in the FOP Web site: Driver driver = new Driver(); driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF); InputHandler inputHandler = new XSLTInputHandler(xmlFile, xslFile); XMLReader parser = inputHandler.getParser(); driver.setOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(outFile)); driver.render(parser, inputHandler.getInputSource()); But, I want to use InputStream instead of File for xslFile and xmlFile (to use in war in Tomcat). And, I don't know how do this ! Moreover, I have fonts configuration. For the same reason, I can't use: userConfigFile = new File(userConfig); options = new Options(userConfigFile); Can anybody help me ??? Thanks.

Re: PS printing
Raúl, ...the PS file is not correct... does not help me much to find out what problems you have. My best guess is you're using tables and the PostScript renderer is messing up the layout. The PostScript renderer has worked for some people. But even I (who made the PostScript renderer in the first place) am currently generating PDF and converting it to PostScript using Adobe Acrobat Reader on Unix. Others use GhostScript to convert PDF to PostScript. So it's probably best if you did the same. I remember discussions on the mailing list concerning direct printing of PostScript files. You might have to search the archives. On Mon, 14 Jan 2002 15:51:09 +0100 Raúl Carazo wrote: I have an application that generate a pdf report.

I am keeping an eye on FOP for a documentation project I'm working on. However, it doesn't yet meet the needs of the project. Project characteristics are delivery of a PDF version of a programming manual. Software is a commerical API with some 400 functions. each function has a man page to itself. There's also tutorial material (estimated at 200 pages or so) plus man pages for internal data structures. This is all marked up according to the DocBook DTD and (for contractual reasons) will be processed using the associated style sheets created by Norm Walsh. At the moment this is looking like we have to use the DSSSL stylesheets to create an RTF intermediary file and then distill from that. Personally I'd rather use FOP than go via Distiller. The SVG capabilities of FOP would be useful to have. Sadly the tests we've done show that 0.20 isn't ready for such a task, either in terms of resources or support for the latest DocBook XSLT scripts. If the only problem were the time to process the document then I could live with that; the production of the PDF will only be undertaken every six months.

Re: PS printing

RE: Any real-life business use ?
Our app is in live beta testing right now. We use FOP to generate printable versions of a lab report and 5 canned mgmt. reports. (I've included a demo copy of the lab report, just to show some of what FOP can do.) So far the only limitations we've found are: 1) Memory. Fop runs out of memory on large reports (from 40+ pages), moreso when several are being run concurrently. (It also happens more often on our $20,000 HP-UX production machines vs. my PIII-NT4 dev box. I have all the settings to HP recommendations. I don't think the HP-UX JVM, even with Hotspot, is tuned very well for garbage collection.) I understand that they way around this is to implement new page sequences every x pages or so. The problem is some of our reports don't have natural page breaks, so I guess I will have to insert some in odd places. 2) Table-header flexibility. We sometimes have a desire to alter the table header for every instance after the first (like inserting the word 'Continued'). I'm gearing up to write a FOP extension to accomplish this. 3) Keep-with-next endless looping problem. Apparently this will be addressed very soon. 4) Complex page numbering. We have a need to display a subsection page number separately within the document. (IE - document page 4 of 9 is subsection page 1 of 3.) Haven't figured out a way to do this. Maybe another extension? 5) On the attached lab report, I can't figure out a way to get the table (or it could be cell) border to extend to the bottom of the page. Note that the report is broken into 4 sections, all of which can span multiple pages. Any ideas on this one would be greatly appreciated. I posted a message about it awhile back (subj: min table or table-cell height?) but no one got back to me. Maybe the visual of the actual lab report will help. All in all, we're very pleased with FOP. I know I surprised some people who didn't think it was possible to work the voodoo of dynamic PDF generation w/o shelling out for a $$$ product, and probably consultants on top of that. thx, Matt Savino -Original Message- From: Patrick Andries [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, January 13, 2002 2:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Any real-life business use ?

Re: fo document as output
I'm not sure I understood everything. The FO is normally built using XSLT. And if it's done right, there's really no need to save the FO to a temporary file. Instead FOP can use SAX output events from the XSL transformation as direct input. Where have you seen this? So if you want to have an FO file, I suggest you look at JAXP 1.1 on how to do XSL transformations. This has actually nothing to do with FOP.

I need to apply changes to sources to obtain that fo file as a result of the elaboration. Does someone know in which part of the code this fo file is builded?
