 FOP indeed uses some Java classes which are typically not available on
 servers without a graphics environment. This can be resolved by running
 the JVM in headless mode, usually by adding -Djava.awt.headless=true
 to the JVM command line. Search the web for how to start Weblogic this
 way.

Re: Question about PDF API used in FOP v0.95

 Hi Liu,

 Hello,now I am doing a research about document format transformation

can't distinguish the PDF API from FOP source v0.95. I want to know how 
 many PDF APIs used in FOP v0.95, who are they and where are there(in 
which package)?
 I have successfully run all the examples in fop-0.95-src on my 
computer and read some of FOP API Document. Also I have tried to find my 
answers from FAQs but I can't find any. So could you help me or  give 
me some advices ?


FOP doesn't publish a API to manipulate PDF. FOP can generate a PDF from 
XSL-FO.If you just want to build a PDF from another source using Java 
API then take a look at the PDF Box project.


 Looking forward to your reply, thank you very much!

Re: Using PCL renderer on Unix

The Custom fonts that you want to use with PCL need to be installed on 
the Operating System. In Windows this means copying the font to 
c:\windows\fonts. You need to speak to your local Unix Admin to help 
figure out how to do this on a Unix environment. Or maybe someone else 
on this list will know.




The same thing is working fine if I generate PCL on my Windows system.

Could you please let me know if it needs some specific configrtion for PCL
renderer to use custom fonts when executed in Unix environment.

Thanks,

Chris

RE: Question about PDF API used in FOP v0.95

2011-11-16 Thread Eric Douglas
The original FOP project was for transforming XSLFO into a PDF.  Then other 
features were added, to transform XSLFO into other outputs including PCL, image 
files, and direct printouts.
Now there is a new feature to FOP which is most useful to us, to create a PDF 
by drawing to a Graphics object as if drawing to a screen.
The question of where is the API is a bit confusing.  The source is on the site 
(http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/).  Old Javadocs are on the web and new ones 
can be created from the source.
AFAIK FOP cannot read in or manipulate existing PDFs.  I would suggest trying 
the pdfbox project for that.

Re: Using PCL renderer on Unix

2011-11-16 Thread Rob Sargent
You can also install your fonts directly into an fop
installation-specific directory by specifying the base directory in you
fop_config.xml.

Start here

Thanks Rob and Chris,

In our case, the X11 system is not enabled, is it required to have X11 enbled 
for PCL to pick up the fonts from the fonts server?

or 

is it OK even if X11 is not enbled, but as long as the fonts are copied in the 
TrueType fonts directory, will PCL renderer be able to pick up those?

Thanks  regards,
Mrutyunjay

Re: PDF encryption and PDF image extension

2011-11-16 Thread Luis Bernardo


The examples/fo/basic/images.fo example works well if you add -noprint 
to fop. That is:


cd examples/fo/basic
fop -noprint -fo images.fo -pdf images-noprint.pdf

The end result shows the images and has Print disabled. So I don't think 
it is a FOP issue

Re: PDF encryption and PDF image extension

As stated in my original message, I'm embedding other images in PDF 
format with the PDF image extension. So the mentioned example fo file 
doesn't show my issue because no PDF images are used there.


Thanks anyway for your response,

FOP: How to add a custom page type to PCL renderer.

2011-11-16 Thread Emmanuel M
Hi,

I am trying to print a document with custom size (width:3in height:2in) but
when I use the FOP to generate the PCL file, I am getting the following
warning: Paper type could not be determined. Falling back to: Legal. Is
there a way to add custom paper types to be used by the PCL renderer?

Thanks in advance,
