automatically putting a header at the top of every page in my PDF report.
Hi I am just a few days old to FO&XSL. Iam trying to generate a printable report from the result of a query (that returns hundreds of rows)to a database. Say if the returned results are with the columns "OrderNo.", "OrderDate","Quantity","Shipping Address" etc. in an XML format like this - OrderNo OrderDate Quantity Shipping address 1 2/2/02 100 Test Address 500 2/2/02 100 Test Address I have the following question(s) * How do I dynamically control pagination of the above data so that is appears accross multiple PDF pages. * How do I ensure that every page of the report has a table at the top that displays the column headers? Can somebody please guide me and give some sample code? thanks Srinivas

Any way to use a non standard font without embedding it?
is there any way to use a non standard font without embedding it? We're having problems on our Linux boxes with the embeded fonts printing. The fonts are embedding correctly at FOP runtime. We have tested pdf made by Acrobat that use system fonts (not embedded) and it works. We're hoping to use the Aachen font without embedding it. Thanks, John

AW: FOP and servlets
Interesting problem!
(as fas as the empty browser window after requested pdf data is sent back to
the browser is concerned)
These may be the problems I have noticed in my test environment.
PDF generation code worked till last test and suddenly not any more although
code was not modified concering the PDF generation... there has been a
browser update since that!
my test url entered in the browser was
http://localhost:8080/fopwelcomeservlet?xml=/c:/XML_SPACE/form_lohnsteuer_sa
mpledata_without_dtd_ref.xml&xsl=/c:/XML_SPACE/form_lohnsteuer_fo.xsl&fo=/c:
/XML_SPACE/testdata.fo
internet explorer versions do match (also IE 5.5 used on test client)
fop version 2.20.2
server is tomcat version used by jbuilder 5
I had not time to check the details of this problem yet und I may not be
able to do that before monday but it would nice to keep each other up to
date...
I think it should >>NOT<< be necessary to code a workaround like you
proposed, even if it may work the way you say.

Betreff: Re: FOP and servlets
No, it's not the solution. In fact, my code is good but my browser is I.E.
5.5 and there's a bug with I.E. when you request a servlet with a URL that
ends with .xml or .xsl : it considers that the servlet sends back a xml
response. To display the generated PDF, I have to add a parameter that does
not end with .xml or .xsl (for instance dummy=.pdf)in the URL.
Thanks for your response, either.

Re: A brain teaser
Here's a skeleton version of the page structure: Note that it is n o t complete but just shows how the general structure could look. Assuming your header data is contained in some xml, all you need to do is to create xsl:templates to extract all rows from it into the 'frontpage' xsl-region-before flow and another template to extract only the first line into 'documentpage' xsl-region before flow. But that part I leave to you. Cheers! ///Magnus Stephen Clarke wrote: > > Hi, > > How can I put a special heading on page one, and a normal heading on all > subsequent pages.
