If you dont specify the width and height, FOP assumes 72dpi and if you have a high res graphic being rendered at 72dpi the result is the dimensions are bigger than a page and the image will be dropped. Do you see any warnings at the console when you run from the command line? Chris very true i didn't specify width and height because the images that are being attached to the pdf have variable dimensions. hmm so that's the behaviour of FOP. i actually tried changing the page size to 40x40inches and still the image did not display... as with regards to the command line warnings... i don't see them if there are any coz i just access the xml file via browser say i resulted to 1234.xml file i access it via http://FQDN:8080/cocoon/xmlfiles/1234.pdf hope this information could further give enlightenment to this case... any other suggestions? all the best!!! pal, benjohn - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Image Size Issue
hi all,
Good Day!!!
i have read lots about images in PDF and have successfully
displayed an image already however i noticed on my system that it
could not accommodate an image greater than 60kb to 70kb of size,
what happens is i get an empty pdf file when the image size goes
higher than mentioned.
before creating the xml file i call:
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
org.apache.fop.image.FopImageFactory.resetCache();
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
as mentioned on one of the docs frees up memory to accommodate
image transactions. now on the XML file here is what i use:
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
figurephoto
image=http://FQDN/images/drawings/B747/ThisIsATest-1234-
5678/.061_67-11-018-Sht5_RevA.jpg//figure
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
and on the XSL file:
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
xsl:template match=figure
fo:block
xsl:apply-templates/
/fo:block
/xsl:template
xsl:template match=photo
fo:block text-align=center
fo:external-graphic src=[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
/fo:block
/xsl:template
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
my system runs on a Pentium 3 800Mhz with 256Mb RAM having:
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
Operating System: Linux RedHat 7.2
Java: j2sdk1.4
Tomcat: jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27
FOP: fop-0.20.5
Cocoon: cocoon-2.1.2
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
ok where does this all boil down to? ... Image Quality... when i lower
down the image file size to 60Kb all the small figures, numbers and
tables get blurry to the point that even when the document gets
printed those small numbers could not be read anymore not to
mention the actual drawings/diagrams the original file size with
good quality could go up to 17x11inches in dimension @ 100 ppi
quality = 400Kb file size imagine bringing that down to 60Kbto
70Kb... i was hoping if anyone has a workaround for this case so as
i could still maintain the sharpness in detail of the images attached
in the PDF file... herewith i also attach the 60kb image for a better
view of the quality disintegration thanks for the attention... all the
best!!!

RE: url port 8080
thanks mike for the suggestion i am a bit worried though since apache httpd uses port 80 hence moving tomcat to port 80 might cause some problems... am still finding other means... all the best!!! pal, benjohn On 24 Mar 2004 at 10:41, Witt, Mike (OH35) wrote: Hi, look in your server.xml and set the port to 80 instead of 8080.

Re: url port 8080
i just thought its possible to access fop without the ports so as the user wont need to be bothered with those ports numbers during entry... will follow ur suggestions... thanks a lot :-) The Cocoon-user list may also be of help here. But I'm missing something--I don't see how any of this could possibly change your servlet port (parameters that use numeric attributes would appear to be more plausible, no? ;) Glen all the best!!! pal, benjohn - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: tables question
hi all, Good Day!!! thanks for giving me that bright idea i was able to achieve what i wanted... hmm... i shouldn't have looked at at block-container in the first place it made me all the more confused hehehe :-) here is what i did though using the existing xsl-fo table tag i omitted the p/p of the table cell in the xml file thus giving me this table tgroup cols=3 colspec colname=col1 colwidth=2in/ colspec colname=col2 colwidth=2in/ colspec colname=col3 colwidth=2in/ tbody row entry colnum=1 valign=top /entry entry colnum=2 valign=top /entry entry colnum=3 valign=top /entry /row /tbody /tgroup /table then inserted this table inside each column block_table tgroup cols=1 colspec colname=col1 colwidth=2in/ tbody row entry colnum=1 valign=topptest/p/entry /row /tbody /tgroup /block_table which now looked like this table tgroup cols=3 colspec colname=col1 colwidth=2in/ colspec colname=col2 colwidth=2in/ colspec colname=col3 colwidth=2in/ tbody row entry colnum=1 valign=top block_table tgroup cols=1 colspec colname=col1 colwidth=2in/ tbody row entry colnum=1 valign=topptest row 1/p/entry /row row entry colnum=1 valign=topptest row 2/p/entry /row row entry colnum=1 valign=topptest row 3/p/entry /row /tbody /tgroup /block_table /entry entry colnum=2 valign=top block_table tgroup cols=1 colspec colname=col1 colwidth=2in/ tbody row entry colnum=1 valign=topptest 2/p/entry /row /tbody /tgroup /block_table /entry entry colnum=3 valign=top block_table tgroup cols=1 colspec colname=col1 colwidth=2in/ tbody row entry colnum=1 valign=topptest 3/p/entry /row /tbody /tgroup /block_table /entry /row /tbody /tgroup /table this one worked :-) thanks once more for the patience in teaching me this technique... all the best!!! pal, benjohn On 15 Mar 2004 at 4:04, J.Pietschmann wrote: Benjohn P.

FOP commands to XSL
hi all, Good Day!!! i am really new to this thus the experimentation. i wanted to create tables that are side by side each other like on a page i have 5 tables aligned side by side with each other... am really not sure how this is done but as far as reading is concerned i came across block- containers property i was wondering if you could help me convert these lines FO to XSL lines fo:block-container border-color=black border-style=solid border- width=.5mm height=0.5cm width=8.95 cm top=3cm left=0cm padding=.6mm position=absolute fo:block text-align=start line-height=14pt font- family=sans-serif font-size=12pt SOLD TO /fo:block /fo:block-container i just found those lines in the example/fo/basic/border.fo file which clearly works on this url http://www.chpii.com:8080/fop?fo=/usr/local/fop/examples/fo/basic/b order.fo now since we are getting data from a dynamic source the approach was to create an XML file then use the XSL file to translate the XML file then further convert it to PDF file inside the XSL file i tried this but didn't work xsl:template match=block_table fo:block-container border-color=black border-style=solid border-width=.5mm height=0.5cm width=8.95cm top=3cm left=0cm padding=.6mm position=absolute fo:block text-align=start line-height=14pt font-family=sans-serif font-size=12pt xsl:apply-templates/ /fo:block /fo:block-container /xsl:template inside the XML file i tried block_table this is a test /block_table but the browser gave me the error Failed To Execute Pipeline org.apache.cocoon.ProcessingException: Failed to execute pipeline.: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.fop.layout.BlockArea hope you could help me in this endeavor... all the best!! pal, benjohn - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
