Yes,
we are doing the xml to pdf transformation in memeory. The xml file size is
330K and pdf file is 56 page.

I
have also noticed that doing the XML to FO to PDF in memory as opposed to
writing to disk reduces time by about 80% in the samples that I
tried.
I
was using iTEXT, XEP, FOP, RTF2FO etc.
Below you say that a 56 page PDF from XML files
takes about 2 minutes. That sounds really good - I was working with 2 pages
and 2 XML files generating FO doing an XSLT transform to merge and coverting
to PDF and that was taking me about 1.5 minutes on a 333MHZ
machine.
I
was just curoius what the total sizes of the XML, the FOs and the PDF were.
Did you concate the FOs? how did you get a single PDF (what
tool)?

Just curious - what are the sizes of the XML,
FO and PDF files?

How to decrease the responding time of converting from
XML to PDF ? Currently it took me about 2 Mins to generate my 56 page
PDF from XML files. Is that possible to convert from XML to PDF
without the intermediate stage of FO format ?
Thanks, Jie

There are no chapter_title or sub formatting objects

long word wrapping problem solved in Fop-0.20.1 ???

It may still be tricky to manage the window/viewport issues, documentation is very scarce. Assistance to get your SVG working is more likely to be found on other lists. If you use Batik as standalone viewer, you could try batik-user. J.Pietschmann _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.

What is different? You are running in a servlet. What libraries does the servlet use to run? I'm sure it is using an xml parser and possibly an xslt processor. So fix your classpath, ie. remove old/incompatible versions of xml libararies.

I tried using xsl and xml files from the fop 20.3 distribution - and they produced the same disappointing results. I have recompiled both servlets without error - and have the jar files that came with fop 20.3 in the path. This is making me crazy - crazier, actually :-) - so any and all advice is appreciated! Note that I did have the XSLT and FO namespaces in he stylesheet - but thanks for the suggestion :-)
