Re: Combine FOP PDFBox efforts?
Ben Litchfield wrote: snip/ I propose that classes in FOP's package be 'merged' into the PDFBox library and FOP utilize PDFBox for PDF functionality.

It certainly looks like both projects have a lot to gain from such a merge. The one who really needs to comment on this proposal is Jeremias as he had plans to take the PDF library out of FOP's code base and make it a separate library in XML Graphics Commons project. It could be that when we do this, we also merge with PDF Box Libraries. I believe Jeremias is unwell at the moment, so he might not be able to comment for a few days. Jeremias is also well versed in the ASF position on licensing. I wanted to gauge interest from FOP developers and start to think about how we can make this work. What do you guys think? In short its a good idea :) Chris

Re: Combine FOP PDFBox efforts?
Hi Christian, Currently I am the only developer that works consistently on PDFBox, other developers contribute occasionally. I just meant to introduce myself as I assume you would not know who I am. I was proposing that PDFBox would remain on SourceForge, but I am open to other possibilities. As far as I can tell that would not need to change, is there a reason it should?

Use of colors in fop
Dear fop developers, One of the things I would like to see in fop is proper color management. Of course, just wanting it is not enough, so I would even create a patch for that :). I do have some extra time this weekend and next week. To coordinate and get my idea reviewed here's my plan: Color is currently handled very inconsistently in many places. In some cases it is handled as r/g/b values in an int[], in others a class, sometimes with or without colorspace information. There is duplicated code in many places. What I would like to do: - Replace ALL occurences of color values with a common color class. I would suggest java.awt.Color and java.awt.color.Colorspace. They have proper support. - Convert that color to the target space no earlier than the output renderer The default target color space is probably sRBG for most screen display devices. For PDF it is a little more complicated. Ideally there would be some kind of PDF-mode option, with possible values of PDF/A-1a, Pdf (print), PDF (screen), PDF (print B/W), PDF (print Grayscale), ... .For now, using CMYK for PDF should be sufficient. Once color is properly used it should be no problem to implement the rgb-cc() and colorspace() functions. Quenstions? Comments?
