fop ant task: change working directory?
I'm not sure if this is an ant question or a fop question, but I was trying to use the fop custom task, and I want to set the current working directory that fop runs from. How does one do that with fop ant task? Do I set a property somewhere? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Saigeetha Govindarajan wrote: Hi, I am new to fop. I was wondering whether there is any xsl already exist for converting xhtml to pdf? This has only just been discussed in a separate thread. There are XSLT stylesheets out there that convert XHTML to XSL-FO (and then to PDF). For example; http://www.antennahouse.com/XSLsample/sample-xsl-xhtml2fo-200201.zip However, FOP doesnt support the full set of features available in XSL-FO. And since antenna house's formatter supports more features youll get errors if you try to use this stylesheet. I suggest you take this stylesheet and refine it to work with FOP.

When I remove the hyphenate property, FOP never goes into endless loop. Chris - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Embedded Carriage Returns Ignored
I have carriage returns that show up within my xml source but when that text block gets tranformed to pdf through fop they are removed --- So: i)point one ii)point two Becomes: i)point one ii)point two Is there an attribute/tag that tells fop NOT to ignore these carriage returns and allow them to show up in the pdf output?

The document is in 8.5 X 11 inch but when I encounter a special tag in the xml file I need to switch to 11 X 17 inch. Is there a way to switch page-master depending on the tag in the xml. Create a new page-sequence when you encounter the tag thats orders a change in page dimensions. Of course, this will cause text after the tag to be moved to a new page. When I encounter the tag I create a new page-sequence but FOP give me an error because the page-sequence must be in the fo:root and not in a fo:block. I'am able to change page-sequence, but only if the tag I'm looking for is at the root. If this tag (graphic in my example) is a child of another tag I didn't find a way to control it. Exemple: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? wp parapara 1 parapara 1.1/para /para parapara 2/para parapara 3/para graphicgraphic 1/graphic parapara 4/para graphicgraphic 2/graphic graphicgraphic 3/graphic parapara 5 parapara 5.1 graphicgraphic 4/graphic /para /para /wp Can anyone help me?

You need to look into grouping techniques in order to sort of pull the special tag to the top level. It's somewhat hairrising though.

How does one do that with fop ant task? Do I set a property somewhere? I'm notsure what you mean by working directory. Ant has the concept of project directory, and relative pathnames used in tasks are resolved agains this. If you mean the base directory FOP uses for resolving relative URLs in the external graphics src, I think the task has a parameter for it. If not, well, check the source whether it sets the base directory to the base directory of the currently processed FO document, as it actually should. Now that I think of it, the task should be updated to have a parameter for the font base directory as well.

That's a though one. I suggest using a table for centering, and
put the text in another row, roughly:
fo:table table-layout=fixed width=100%
fo:table-column column-width=proportional-column-width(1)/
fo:table-column column-width={$your-image-width}/
fo:table-column column-width=proportional-column-width(1)/
fo:table-body
fo:table-row
fo:table-cell/
fo:table-cell
fo:block
fo:external-image src=.../
/fo:block
/fo:table-cell
fo:table-cell/
/fo:table-row
fo:table-row
fo:table-cell/
fo:table-cell number-of columns spanned=2
fo:blocktext.../fo:block
/fo:table-cell
fo:table-cell/
/fo:table-row
/fo:table-body

Hi
Hi
Some friendly advice to start:
Would you be so kind the next time, to post in plain-text? Not a problem for
me specifically, but some would find it a reason to ignore your question if
you don't... Just imagine for a moment what all that HTML looks like in
plain text view.
Now as to your question:
When I encounter the tag I create a new page-sequence but FOP give me an
error
because the page-sequence must be in the fo:root and not in a fo:block.
I'am able to change page-sequence, but only if the tag I'm looking for is
at
the root. If this tag (graphic in my example) is a child of another tag
I
didn't find a way to control it.
I think you're going to need three XSL templates for this:
(more of a Mulberry-question, come to think of it)
- one for the plain para .../ elements (sans graphiques ;) )
- one for the graphic .../ elements that are children of the root
- one to handle graphic / elements with para .../ ancestors
Example stylesheet:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=iso-8859-1 ?
xsl:stylesheet version=1.0
xmlns:xsl=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform;
xsl:output method=xml /
xsl:template match=wp
foroot
xsl:apply-templates select=para[not(descendant::graphic)]
| //graphic /
/foroot
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=para[not(descendant::graphic)]
xsl:choose
xsl:when test=parent::wp
fopageseq ref=a
foblock
xsl:apply-templates /
/foblock
/fopageseq
/xsl:when
xsl:otherwise
foblock
xsl:apply-templates /
/foblock
/xsl:otherwise
/xsl:choose
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=graphic[parent::wp]
fopageseq ref=b
foextgraph src={.} /
/fopageseq
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=graphic[ancestor::para]
fopageseq ref=a
xsl:for-each select=ancestor::para
xsl:sort select=position() order=ascending /
foblock
xsl:value-of select=text() /
/foblock
/xsl:for-each
/fopageseq
fopageseq ref=b
foextgraph src={.} /
/fopageseq
/xsl:template
/xsl:stylesheet
Modify this to use real fo's, and use it to transform your example XML. Only
case not handled by the above template is: a para that would be following
'graphic 4' in your example, but would still be a child of the 'para 5'
node... Just to give you an idea.
Cheers,
Andreas
