fo:region-body column-count question
I've a question, is it possible to detect when you have entered the next column? Why do I want to do this. I've a layout that is devided in 4 columns. Those 4 columns are setup like this: X | Y | Y | X The first and the last column contain the same type of data and the middle two columns also. Also the data of X and Y are linked together (X is information about Y). They need to be next to each other, when a new X starts a new Y also starts. To do this I want to create a region-body with two columns and within the columns I want to put a table with two cells. The problem is when the first column is full (reaches the end of the page) and the second column is started, the cells need to be swapped from position. I have absolutely no idea if this is possible and if so, how to do it. I hope one of you guys can help me out.

Re: problems with fo:block and fo:block-container in FOP 0.20.3/0.20.5
From: Micha³ Ja¶tak [EMAIL PROTECTED] snip/ Everything inside block-container is not visible on output, when I change block-container into block, everything looks good, why do you need to use block-container? block-containers are only partially implemented in FOP at the moment. In the example you posted, blocks will do exactly the same thing. Another problem is related to situation when block contains block-container, in this case I'm getting following error while running FOP: FOP doesnt support block-containers inside a block, block-containers have to be a direct child of fo:flow at the moment. snip/ Chris _ Hotmail messages direct to your mobile phone http://www.msn.co.uk/msnmobile - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

PDF generation with only a subset of a Font embedded?

RE: PDF generation with only a subset of a Font embedded?
By default, unless you specified '-enc ansi' when you created the metrics, FOP subsets TrueType fonts. -Original Message- From: Ricardo Coutinho [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 29, 2003 7:40 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: PDF generation with only a subset of a Font embedded?

RE: PDF generation with only a subset of a Font embedded?
Title: RE: PDF generation with only a subset of a Font embedded? Thanks for the reply, Okay then let me explain my actual problem which I thought was due to my font metrics files. My font metrics file were created with a previous version of FOP, i.e. there was no '-enc ansi' option. My problem is that the I can not search the text in the generated PDFs. When looking at the PDF with an editor , it appears that everything is an image. Is this due to the fact the metrics files were CID-keyed? I read the information on the http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html#truetype-metrics page explaining the differences in the metrics file generation. Although using the metrics file with the '-enc ansi' fixes this problem, I am then have bloated PDFs. Are there any other alternatives?

RE: PDF generation with only a subset of a Font embedded?
My solution was to embed the entire font with the 'enc -ansi' option, then post-process them with Neevia Document Converter to subset the fonts. This does a little better job with the subsetting as you can still search. I believe Neevia just calls ghostscript to do this function. I'm not positive though, but since Neevia already worked, it was cheaper than developing a solution with ghostscript. -Original Message- From: Ricardo Coutinho [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 29, 2003 9:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: PDF generation with only a subset of a Font embedded?

Re: problems with fo:block and fo:block-container in FOP 0.20.3/0.20.5
From: Micha³ Ja¶tak [EMAIL PROTECTED] snip/ thanks, it works; is the same possible for block instead of block-container ? it looks like it is not working :( No, you cant absolutely position a fo:block, that what fo:block-container is for. do you know why block-container's content is not visible in some cases ? which XSL-FO elements could I use inside of block-container to not loose my content ? What are the some cases that you've seen? If I have to guess, I would say the content is too big for the block-container. Are there any messages when you run FOP at the command line?
