Re: RTF support in Apache FOP?

2002-12-23 Thread m . schaeffler
look at  http://www.jfor.org/
 
 Could any one let me know when the RTF support will be implemented in the
 Apache FOP. Is there any other project apart from apache working on FOP's
?
 
 Thanks

No idea unfortunately. Several people were supposed to work on this at 
various points but nothing concrete (except my very small effort to 
jumpstart the integration [1]) has happened yet.

Contributions are welcome as usual, I'd be happy to give pointers to 
anyone wanting to jump in, but currently lack the time to do the 
integration myself, and I don't think any other committers are working 
on it ATM.

PCL problem

2002-12-23 Thread Oscar Schoof
Hi all,
i've got a problem with a special character (and maybe with more, but 
did not notice yet). In this case it is about the mu, the greek 
character often used for a shorthand for micro. In my fo i convert 
this character to #x3BC;.
Now, when i process my fo to pdf with FOP it shows ok in the pdf.
But when i process the same fo to pcl with FOP it shows a strange and 
wrong symbol. (It looks like the symbol for 1/4.)

Does anybody know why this happens and/or what to do about it?
Oscar

That sounds to me like you want to create a big SVG image of your flowchart.
So do you know SVG?

Yep,
That is what I meant. You are basically creating a big vector graphic with 
several bitmap images inside it. Once you have the SVG you can either serve 
it directly if your clients have the SVG plugin (unlikely) or embed it 
inside XSL:FO

If you look at the specs for XSL:FO they mostly talk about rectangular 
blocks of text rather than drawing lines.

Re: supported image formats

2002-12-23 Thread m . schaeffler
Hi,

thanks for the great feedback. It seems to me that the image formats
supported by Jimi are not all supported by fop (0.20.4). Fop with some help from
Jimi and Batik supports bmp, eps, jpeg, png, svg, tiff (there are
*ImageReader.class files for the types implemented in the package
org.apache.fop.image.analyser). With ANY other image format, which is supported 
by Jimi (e.g. pcx,
tga), I get a this Error:

[Error] Could not load external SVG: Content is not allowed in prolog.
[Error] Error while creating area : No ImageReader for this type of image
(file:/C:/xsl/fop-0.20.4/logo_schwarz.TGA)


Did anybody included a image in one of this formats: dib, ddb, pict, psd,
Sun Raster, TGA, XBM, XPM, ICO, CUR, PCX???

Re: PCL problem

2002-12-23 Thread Oscar Schoof
this all comes down to which font you are using. The PCL renderer 
doesnt support custom fonts. From the standard 14 fonts, the mu 
character x03BC has a glyph in the Symbol font. Maybe your PCL printer 
doesnt support the Symbol Font?
Hi Chris,
i'm using only font-family Helvetica. No extra fonts declared in the 
config.
The pcl-file is spooled to the same printer the pdf is printed (by an 
adobe acrobat reader) to.
Both outputs of FOP are generated on the same PC (with Windows 2000 pro) 
and printed/spooled also.
My printer-driver tells me it supports the symbol-font (natively, 
without download a softfont).
(I'm setting up a automated fax process. In feeding the pcl to our 
fax-server, which is pcl-oriented, i get exactly the same results.)
I do not think the problem is the printer.
What i also notice in the printed output, is that the width of this 
wrong symbol (the 1/4-symbol) is wrong, i.e. it has exactly the width of 
the character i wanted there: the mu.
Do you have any more suggestions?

Oscar

The only working solution for named destinations I found was using a

Re: PCL problem

Oscar,

convert the docs/examples/fo/fonts.fo example to PCL and send it to your
printer. If you can see the mu character in the output look into
fonts.fo how to make it appear. You will probably have to use
font-family=Symbol.

Jeremias,
Thanks. Adding inline the font-family and using the right code out of 
the symbol table did the trick!! The fonts.fo example was very helpful.

 When FOP is unable to load image it doesn't throw an exception, but 
 instead it logs an error message about it, just check out a log info 
 to see what's going on.

sure;-) but there isn't an error, the path is ok. and when i debug 
through the code the
image will be loaded from the ImageFactory. But later I think there an 
exception
will be thrown and catch.
