Implementation of reference-orientation and the ability to put rotated text

2003-07-25 Thread Ian Rowlands
I am trying to put writing that is rotated down the margin of a document
- the content of the text is being picked up from a marker. It seems the
reference-orientation attribute is ideal for this. 

Is this implemented at all, or any plans to do so? 

If it is not implemented, is there any other way to do rotated lettering
down the sides of a page?

Thanks,

Ian

Well ...

The image will be scaled the to imageable area.

That is why you see a large image stuffed to fit in the portrait.pdf

If you look at the landscape.pdf, you will see if the page was
turned 

the image would fit :-)

How can the page be turned ?

Mmm... but your image will never fit. Do you want to cut it if the page
ends horizontally?

Now I got it hundred per cent. This I didn't consider... but why do you want
to bring such a wide image on your page (portrait)?

Yes you get what I mean, but ...

And yes you can have more than one simple-page master and use 

normal then use landscape, but the page is still not turned, by the
way I understand it ?

Check out the attachments :-)

If the page is not turned and you change the height and width, then
you draw off

the page.

How can the page be turned ?

Yes I may be able to turn the image, but this would be a special
case in my current setup.

The XSL-FO book states there is a reference-orientation, why is it
not there ?

Thank you :-)

Hope I get what you mean... you can implement more than one
simple-page-master. So you can create one for landscape and one for portrait
and allocate these when needed by there master-name.

That makes sense, but how does the image area of the page get turned
?

If you draw on this page with the height smaller than the width, and

and width is greater than the page in portrait layout, 

then you will draw off the page ??

Hello ethan!

Yes, fop doesn't support this feature yet. There's a possibility to replace
this missing attribute as following:
When implementing the fo:simple-page-master you set page-height and
page-width in the way that height-value is less than width-value.
page-height=210mm and page-width=297mm

In that case you reach that your page is oriented as landscape with a paper
size of A4.

Hope for giving usefully support ;-)

Does any one know anything about this attribute ?

I tried to use it with fop-0.20.4 and got a message saying

reference-orientation not implemented yet


I searched the fop-4 and fop-5rc code, and it seems that it is not
implemented in fop-5rc either.


Is there any way to turn the page from protrait to landscape using
XSL-FO ?

Indeed.

Define a simple page master with the usual width and heigth
transposed, i.e. for A4 landscape
 fo:simple-page-master
  page-width=297mm page-height=210mm
  master-name=a4
  fo:region-body/
 /fo:simple-page-master
and use it for the pages you want to have in landscape format.

Hi @ all!

I'm using FOP version 0.20.5 and set the attribute reference-orientation
in my stylesheet. While parsing I get the message 
[ERROR] property - reference-orientation is not implemented yet.

Have I to set my page-height and page-width every time so that my
orientation fits or will this feature be implemented in next version?

Thanx in advance!

The next release will probably have some support for reference-orientation,
but there is still a long  way to go.

Use SVG either an external graphic or instream-foreign-object. I believe 
SVG:text elements can be rotated. I haven't done this myself, so I cant help 
you with the details. Others on this list have acheieved this using SVG.

No. It has been started in the redesign (available through CVS) but I
don't think you will already get happy with it.

In the meantime you can try if using SVG for rotated text works for you.

Thank you for help, but afaik reference-orientation is implemented already in 
the trunk. If you wanna help, dive into the redesign.

PS. And please, don't send messages in html format to apache mail lists, it's

Yes, you can use SVG instead of FO for the rotated text.

I have tried this option but I can't get it to do what i want. I need to 
wrap text inside absolute positioned block-containers and the text

Can svg wrap text inside absolute positioned (and absolute sized)

We are working on the implementation of such things in the redesign.
There is a basic implementation of this but it is not ready for general
use.

There is an extension in batik that does text wrapping. I think it might
be something for a future svg spec. I'm not sure what version of batik
has this.
