using fo:external-graphic with a data:image/auto;base64 URI

2007-08-14 Thread Philipp Wagner
Hello,

I am currently trying to convert WordML-documents to XSL-FO and then PDF 
using the wordml2fo XSL Script by RenderX and Microsoft [1]. This 
embeds images into the FO file like that:

fo:external-graphic
  src=url(#34;data:image/auto;base64,H4sIcBZxWR==#xA;#34;)/

(shortened, no valid base64-string any more)
This seems to use a URI scheme described in RFC 2397 [2]. 
FOP 0.93 doesn't seem to support this URI scheme and this way of 
embedding images. Is there another way of embedding (bitmap) images in 
FOP or is there support planned for this URI scheme? I couldn't find 
anything in the XSL-FO specs which says this scheme must be supported 
or not, but some commercial FOP processors (at least RenderX's XEP, as 
they prepared that XSL-Stylesheet I'm using) seem to support it.

Thanks!

Philipp

Have a look at pdftk or similar tools, fop is not made for that. pdftk 
can merge multiple pdf files into one.

Re: merge PDF files with FOP??

2007-08-14 Thread Abel Braaksma
Not sure whether FOP can do it, it is surely not designed to do stuff 
like that (FOP is an XSL-FO processor that transforms XSL-FO documents 
into a variety of other formats (if it could include PDF, or RTF or Word 
or whatever, it must also be capable of converting these formats to any 
of the other output formats).


May I suggest you lookup the excellent MultiValent 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/multivalent/) or the PDF Split and 
Merge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfsam/). I've only use the first 
(excellent product, download the stable version though), the second 
seems promising.


Cheers,

FOP 0.20.5 0.93 Wrapping Difference

2007-08-14 Thread Matthias Müller
Hi there,

i just found something curious with text wrapping in table-cells: text with 
words that are not handled as 'normal' (like this THIS_IS_JUST_TEXT) is 
wrapped by FOP 0.20.5 when placed in a table-cell. But in FOP 0.93 it's not. 
Attached you can find my stylesheet.

Do you have an idea why?

Thanks, Matthias

Re: embedding font Bundesbahn-Pi at FOP

2007-08-14 Thread william

Thanks Adrian and everyone,

I have sent it to you for you to take a look at it (font and FO). if 
there's something that is useful for me/others to know, please do tell me.


Otherwise, does anyone has any idea where else I can look for software 
solution that might accommodate this ?


William.

Hi William,

Yes I think that might be the problem, it does look like an encoding 
problem to me.  I took a quick look at the code and the 
NullPointerException you are experiencing would indicate that the 
encoding is not recognised by FOP and its failing to provide a 
CodePointMapping instance which is used internally by SingleByteFont.


If you send me the font (and fo) I will try and take a quick look at it.

Adrian.

Hi All,

First of all, would like to thank you all developers and commiters at 
FOP. i've been using it for awhile now.


I haven't had problem with embedding fonts before, except on this 
Bundesbahn-Pi font and another symbol/pi font. The error message is 
posted below.

I'm using fop 0.93 and I need help with embedding this font.

Is there anything to do with this?
/currently present a problem because FOP cannot correctly determine 
the encoding of these two single-byte fonts through the PFM file. FOP 
now correctly interprets the encoding value in the XML font metrics 
file, but the PFMReader application writes UnknownEncoding to the 
generated XML file


/If someone would try to work it out for me, i can send you the font 
to try out + .fo file.


This is my configuration for the font:
font metrics-url=Bundesbahn.xml kerning=yes 
embed-url=Bundesba.pfb
   font-triplet name=Bundesbahn style=normal 
weight=normal/

 /font
