I saw someone post some code a while ago and just assumed it would work on 1.5, I never actually tried it. JPS allows to print arbitrary objects, although each print service only supports a certain subset of DocFlavors. See the attached jdk15JPSEnum.txt which is a log of the JPSEnum.java I've also attached. It shows what JPS printing services (streaming and non-streaming) are available on my system under JDK 1.5.

Re: Current CVS - break-after/before=page not working?
Tom Frey wrote: Hi, I don't seem to get break-after=page working with the current CVS snapshot. Is there something I might be doing wrong or is there something broken? Here's some test xsl which renders page breaks with v0.20.5 but not with the current CVS snapshot: There are currently two lines of development in FOP, the redesigned code and 0.20.x. The reason break-after isnt working in the current snapshot is because the snapshot is of CVS Head which just happens to be the redesigned code, whilst the 0.20.x code is available on a CVS branch. If you want to get the latest 0.20.x code then you will need to download a CVS client and do an update from the correct branch. To be honest though no that much has changed since 0.20.5, only a little bit of tweaking to the amount of memory consumed by tables. snip/ Chris - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Footer placement...
Anil R. Pinto wrote: snip/ But with the marker approach I noticed that the footer area has to be allocated to the other pages (using the layout and region-after values applicable to the pages) irrespective. So, untimately although no footer is printed on the middle pages, the area is consumed by a blank portion and so paper will not really be saved (the main intention of this exercise :-) ) Sounds to me like you can fulfill your requirement using a footnote. A footnote only takes up space if present. So just put a footnote in your last paragraph and it should appear at the bottom of the last page. No need to define a region-after. The only problem with footnotes is that they are a bit buggy in current version of FOP. Certain scenarios may produce strange effects, e.g. if last paragraph in document happens to be at bottom of page, then there will be room for footnote. What should happen is FOP should move last paragraph to next page along with footnote, but I dont think this works.

Re: Conversion of a SVG image (RGB) into PDF (CMYK)
Saptarshi Sen wrote: Hi, What exactly is the org.apache.fop.dataTypes.ColorSpace.java file for? Does is provide any kind of support for CMYK? This is the java class that is used to represent the colour space specified in the FO. Although it clearly has enumerations for CMYK, the renderers always work with RGB values. Take a look at PDFRenderer.renderWordArea method and you will see a PDFColor object constructed based only on RGB values with no test for CMYK. CMYK is supported for JPEG images, so that if an image has CMYK colours these are preserved in the generated PDF. Is there any other way by which I could convert the RGB colors to CMYK? FOP is open source, you could download the source and change the PDFRenderer to support CMYK. The PDFColor object looks like it supports CMYK, so it may be straight forward to implement.

If the remaining content is just a small 1 pt space for example it will look like you have a blank header. Try increasing size of header until problem goes away.

Place the contents for the last footer inside fo:marker tags after the rest of your content. In the region-after, retrieve this marker for every page.

Alternatively if you need a footer in the middle pages, then use fo:marker at the start to set what the footer for the middle pages.

I'm not sure how the internals of the fop system work, but on some systems you can trick them into recognising the link as an image by appending something like dummy=file.jpg to the url. When the processor see's the .jpg at the end of the url, it assumes the proper content type for the document. Also make sure the servlet is returning the proper content type.

The 1.0 Dev branch isnt ready yet. First, I have to change most of the method calls for it to compile, then I found that some of the old EPS files are not working using the newly built FOP, it just hangs there and the generated PS file size keeps growing into a few MB, before it's around 30KB; The block-container position also doesn't work, I defined left, top, width and height, position=absolute, which worked in 0.20.5. block-containers is on the FOP 1.0 TODO list before we can do a release. See: http://xml.apache.org/fop/design/layout.html#status-todo At this point I'm confused: if I want to modify some features, should I start to work on the released version or the newest 1.0dev? Please advise. Any patches you submit to 0.20.5 are unlikely to be committed to the code base. Any work you do on FOP 1.0 dev will be highly welcome. However, as you've already noticed the development branch is not yet up to 0.20.5 so we need to do a lot more work on core features before it is ready for tweaking The reason for this situation is that FOP 1.0 dev is not just an evolution of FOP 0.20.5, but was a ground up re-write. This was necessary because the structure of the code in 0.20.5 did not allow for key features such as keep-* properties.

RE: How to tell Driver to open acrobat in a new IE?
The Driver has no control over where the browser shows the output. What you
have to do is open a new window and have it request the PDF file. Adding
target=_new to the link that creates the pdf is probably all that you need.

I am parsing my XML file through FOP parser and then telling the driver to
render it as PDF. The process is initiated by clicking on a button on IE.
What happens is the current IE instance opens the acrobat and displays the
PDF it.
The users have to hit back button to get back to the application.
My question is how do i tell the Driver to open the PDF in a separate
instance of acrobat (within a new IE instance) or just by acrobat
independently.
Thanks

public void renderXML(XSLTInputHandler input,

String OS = System.getProperty(os.name);
driver.setLogger(log);
driver.setErrorDump(true);

Thats right, the xslt will only take a small percentage of processing time compared with the XSL-FO formatting process. Calling FOP from command line each time means there is the overhead of starting the Java JVM for each ticket. The way around this is to write a Java program which can receive requests via some mechanism, e.g. JMS Queues, watching disk files, database tables, etc etc. And then change your perl program to send a request using your choosen communication method. The details of linking Java to Perl are well off topic for this discussion group, but you should find once completed that the average ticket generation time is reduced by a good margin.

However, maybe you dont need to use block-containers. In your sample, it looks like you are using block-containers to fix the height of a paragraph.
