Note that SVG 1.2 is still in the Working Draft stage. AFAIK, Batik 1.6, the version we ship with FOP 0.92beta, does not contain support for flowRoot. If you want to know more about that status of the SVG 1.2 implementation of Apache Batik, I suggest you ask there. I'm not up-to-date concerning that detail. As a work-around try to persuade Inkscape not to produce flowRoot objects, i.e. don't use text boxes. I think there's an option in Inkscape that converts flow text into normal text. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
DejaVu TrueType fonts for use in Apache FOP
Cliff, I'd like to get some feedback on the license for the DejaVu TrueType font set: http://dejavu.sourceforge.net The DejaVu fonts are derived from the BitStream Vera fonts.

The word sublicense seems to have been removed and a few things added. But as far as I understand the license text (and IANAL and English is not my primary language), I think the license should match Category A. I'd like to request confirmation that we can use these fonts (in binary) within Apache FOP (in SVN and maybe to be bundled in our distributions). Thanks a lot! Jeremias Maerki

I opened simple_figure_with_text.svg from the test case in Inkscape, selected the text object, and did Text-Unflow from the menu, and saved the figure. That made the figure show up in the PDF generated by FOP. Perhaps an item for the SVG part of the FAQ? Inkscape will probably become a popular program to draw SVG figures with, and using flowRoot is the default for text objects.

Re: Any ideas on Bug 39443? a block over multi pages
The bug is fixed now. The span handling code only detected span changes but did not react properly on page breaks inside spanned sections. On 07.05.2006 06:17:15 Adam wrote: Dear FOP-dev group. Firstly would just like to say that the current work being done on FOP is fantastic. I've been able to use it in all manor of places from help guides to dynamic content creation using Cocoon. :) Re: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39443 I've done some more testing and the results seem to lean towards ( I suspect) the page layout engine. Different renderers like print, TIFF and SVG are showing the same problem as stated in the report. Could the problem be that when a fo:block is set to span='all' and the block flows over to the next page its span=all attribute setting is lost? Its holds the width correctly (span all width) but the columns are reset back to the default page layout. It happens when 2,3,4,etc columns are set. A workaround, I made each original row into a single table, so that the FO was just a table after table in the same block. It still had issues like above. I then put each table in to its own span all block interleaved with a fo:block#x200b/fo:block , a zero width space. This produced the results I needed. Haven't tested what would happen if a single row spanned 2 or more pages. Does this make sense? Is this a bug like I thought? Regards Adam Jeremias Maerki

Re: Google Summer of Code
Hi Jeremias, Normally my application should have been sent. However I don't see it on my home page so I wonder if it has to be reviewed first or if the submit has failed. The way the webapp works isn't clear to me yet. Do you see my application? Vincent Jeremias Maerki a écrit : Hi Patrick, green lights everywhere. I've already ranked it and applied for the mentor position. It turns out that the Wiki in the ASF this time only was about collecting ideas for projects (unlike last year). The real project proposals are those on the Google site. At this moment, only 7 entries (including yours) have requests for the mentor position und therefore have a score of =4. Now we only need Vincent who should be back on Sunday. If he enters his proposal then, everything should be fine. Vincent, ping me when you entered it so I can go right to the ranking part.

Realized only today that I have to sign up, too, as a mentor. http://code.google.com/ On 28.04.2006 17:24:43 Patrick Paul wrote: Same here, I've added an entry for auto table layout, right after Vincents.

That Wiki page is the first station. I'm not sure, yet, who exactly will transfer the proposals to Google (can't remember from last year, either), but the first step is to identify the projects inside the ASF. I'll need to read through the whole mentoring info and stuff during the weekend. You can list me as a mentor on both projects. If I can get help from another FOP committer mentoring, all the better.
