 What do you think, how much effort (in man-day) is used for initial
 skill adaptation training in fop-code and writing the expansion for
 supporting trim-, bleed-box and crop-marks?

It depends how these elaborate those crop-marks should be. The 
necessary
extension code is easy. The painting of the crop-marks should 
probably

be as renderer-independent as possible (so it can be reused by other
renderers). So it should probably be implemented using 
Java2D/Graphics2D
(see AbstractRenderer.getGraphics2DAdapter()). But that shouldn't 
take
too long, either. I guess with all testing and some documentation, 
not
more than 2 or 3 days. As already mentioned I have the beginnings of 
a
patch for bleed box which could serve as a starting point. 
Unfortunately,

I don't have it with me here in Amsterdam this week.



I talked here in our team about the implementation of the trimbox an 
crop-marks functionality in FOP. I think I can and will make the needed 
implementation for that in the future. Directly now, I have not the 
time to do that, so I will contact you (Jeremias) as soon as I have 
time to do it. Then we can talk about, if we have to meet us for the 
first hints and pointers you can give it to me.


@Jeremias: Did you see my posting Apache FOP: Different Problems with 
embedding PDFs from 10.04.2008? Point 5 is solved with installing JAI 
Image I/O Tools, but the other??? Mainly the first point - Is it a 
known bug, or did I make a mistake?


I wish to all of you a beautiful start of the week...

Thanks  regards,
Oliver Hirschi

It's not available in FOP, yet. I have once started support for the 
bleed

box (as an experiment) but since this is very low priority for me I
haven't finished, yet. If you have some Java knowledge it would be an
ideal opportunity to contribute something back to FOP. I can give
hints and pointers into the code to get you started.

 Hi there

 Is there a way to define the trimbox, the bleedbox and maybe also 
 corp

 marks by generating a pdf over xsl:fo using apache fop 0.94?

 I saw there is a way to do it with e.g. AntennaHouse, isn't it?
 So, do I have to change to AntennaHouse, or is there also a way to 
 do

 it with apache fop?

 Great thanks  Kind regards,
 Oliver Hirschi
