  - The external-graphics_src_url testcase
  Suggestions? Should we just remove it?
 
 I've disabled it. People without restrictions could reenable the
 testcase for themselves. Alternatively, we could add FOP extensions
 allowing for proxy authentification.

Given that this has come up a number of times in the past, that's not a
bad idea. I'll add it to the Wiki.

  Hi Dalibor
  
  Good thing you're still lurking! :-)
  
 
 Well, FOP is very interesting for me in terms of having a free DocBook
 toolchain on free runtimes that's well maintained. If you are around at
 FOSDEM, it'd be great to have a small talk about FOP, Batik, XML
 graphics and free runtimes, what works, what we still need, which areas
 would need more work, etc.

I currently don't have plans for that. But I'll look into it. In the
meantime, I'm always available here on the mailing list and via Skype.
I've also set up a Wiki page where we can track all the issues involved
here. Help is welcome.

   Yup. I was under the impression that the XML graphics project would help
   work around the most dire problems, though. Right?
  
  As much as we can, anyway. I'm working on that. I don't think I'll be
  able to help improving IKVM. GNU Classpath might be easier to help with,
  but then I still don't have a clue how to work with GNU Classpath on
  Windows (Cygwin only coming with GCC 3.x, not 4.0). I haven't had the
  time to help myself to a true Unix environment, yet. I've got access to
  two Unix systems, both of which don't have GCC/GCJ installed and I have
  limited knowledge on unixish systems to simply know how to install
  additional software (if I'm allowed at all). And then I hate C/C++ and
  having to apply patches before I can compile some software. :-) So this
  means that it takes a lot of nerves to go after this.
 
 
 Heh, I know, I know ... I can't build Kaffe on Cygwin without a patched
 up jikes, with Davanum's patches from CVS, etc... I need to pickup my
 conversation with Cygwin packagers to see if we can get Kaffe packaged
 in there. With the recent CVS head it's possible to use Kaffe with GNU
 Classpath like with JamVM, and other runtimes, but it's still some time
 to go until I release 1.1.7.
 
 I'll play around a bit with gcjx on cygwin, to see if it works better
 than jikes.

Good luck! I'll keep trying myself.

Hello,

I would suggest you make the announcement on the dita-users list, as

Not necessarily. We've called it 0.90alpha1. I'd assume we'd have a
0.90beta or directly a 0.90 (final) first. But I guess that's open for
discussion. I don't care too much about it.

The problem is that it appears the whole testsuite to hang, until the
connection times out.
We could probably exchange arguments ad infinitum. Maybe a solution is
to create another category of tests, tests unsafe for people without
internet connection or so.

Design idea: create an URL resolver which uses j-c-httpclient and is

HTTP URLs, including other authorization and session problems.

Re: Text handling in svg files, transcoders

  Hi,
  
  I would need some help to understand how transcoders and
  text handling within svg should work.
  
  o first, when I try to convert some svg that contains text
 into pdf with Batik (1.6), text is always rendered as
 strokes, even if it would be possible to render it with
 pdf text primitives. Whereas it is said on the Fop website
 [1] that normal PDF text is used when possible (I've tried
 with the text.svg file provided there). Is that normal?
 
 For PDF, this should not be the case. I guess I need to check that again.
 Prior to the 0.90alpha1 release this was fixed by introducing
 PDFBridgeContext. For PostScript, this is the case, yes, because I
 haven't had the time to do the necessary changes, yet.

I've just checked:
- PDFTranscoder has the text bridge enabled and uses text commands for
text where possible.
- The same applies to SVG within XSL-FO (PDFSVGHandler)
- EPSTranscoder has the text bridge enabled but the PSTextPainter has a
bug determining paintable text elements and there's another problem with
the Java2D subsystem which paints all text upside down ATM. Now I
remember that I've started debugging in this area but obviously I didn't
finish.
- For SVG in XSL-FO for PostScript output, the text bridge is currently
inactive so that all text is rendered as shapes. The upside-down effect
doesn't occur in this case.

Good summary for myself when I get back to this. :-)

Whitespace-handling rework :: Incorrect layout tests?

2005-11-24 Thread Andreas L Delmelle

Hi all,

While toying around with moving Block.handleWhitespace() elsewhere, I  
ended up thoroughly revising the whole lot (more on this to follow).  
FTM, the point is that my current revised version passes all layout  
tests apart from the following:


leader_text-align.xml
leader_toc.xml

Both for the reason that a space is retained where the checks seem to  
indicate that they are expected to be dropped. At least, that's what  
I think...


For the first:

fo:leader ... /
some text

A space should be retained here from the linefeed after fo:leader.

The second:

.../fo:basic-link
fo:leader ... /

A space should be retained here from the linefeed between the two  
elements.


If I interpret the tests correctly, they don't expect that space in  
between...?



WDYT?

Cheers,

Andreas
