Re: [FOP-USER] revision bars
On Fri, 29 Mar 2002, Rodolphe VAGNER [EMAIL PROTECTED]...: I have to display revision bars on a document. I have a similar requirement. Was going to post this self-same question today! I can't change the DTD ( SGML one, I transform sgml instances in xml before my fop treatment ) Exactly my situation. If XML had retained marked sections then I could do away with the SGML master copy altogether. (I always said that the non-inclusion of marked sections in the XML spec was stupid. But I also said that the original goal of XML being implemented in 2 weeks by a computing science student was impossible.) ... that specifies that the revisions bars must appear in front of the text which is between the tags startOfRevision/ and endOfRevision/ ; note that these tags are empty, and are included elements, in SGML sense ! I'm using the DocBook DTD and am contractualy limited to what additions I can make to the DTD itself. Adding general entities is about the limit. Do you think I can display those bars - with XSL (if possible, and I think it's not ) - by inserting invisible marks in the PDF and have a post treatment on the PDK with the Adobe SDK. So, what kind of mark can I use ?? I don't have the option of using Adobe products. So I'm after a pure SGML/DSSSL/XML/XSL solution.

Re: [FOP-USER] [ANNOUNCEMENT] Fop 0.20.3 released

The main reason for this release is the conformance to the XSL-FO Version 1.0 W3C Recommendation. Does this mean that I can now use the Norm Walsh XSLT stylesheets shrink-wrapped? I had problems doing this with 0.20.2 as previosuly reported to this list. If I can't use them shrink wrapped what must I do to use the latest versions of Norm's work?

Need more diagnostic info from FOP ... how?
I'm using fop 0.20.2 with the (1.47 experimental) DocBook XSL stylesheets. Although fop reports Parsing of document complete when I use this setup with my document I receive errors saying: [ERROR]: property 'master-reference' ignored and then after Parsing of document complete: [ERROR]: 'master-name' for 'fo:page-sequence'matches no 'simple-page-master' or 'page-sequence-master' This last is followed by java exception information. There's then no pdf file produced. I can't decide where the error originates. Is it a fault in the stylesheet, my understanding, fop itself, or all these and more? Sadly as there's no additional info on that error that helps me find the cause of the error with the stylesheet. Here's the command line I'm using ~/Fop-0.20.2/fop.sh -d \ -xsl /home/trevor/docbook-xsl-1.47-experimental/fo/docbook.xsl \ -xml proposal.xml \ -pdf proposal.pdf The .xml file itself is about 25K. I've tried a (non DocBook) stylesheet and fop generates a pdf file. Both the stylesheets and Fop are out of the box.
