 You are right. one is correct.
 

Thanks.

 BTW if I look at openca-guide.pdf with gv then I see the images. If 
 somebody can explain this then this would help a lot to fix the problems 
 with acrobat reader.
 

I used xpdf and acrobat reader and saw no images (using the guide from
openca-0.9.2-RC6).  When I used gv, I saw the black-and-white line
drawings, but not the color drawing of the life-cycle of objects that I
see in the .html file with a web browser.  Actually, when I turned to
the page for the life-cycle of objects in gv, I saw a very brief (1
second) flash of the color drawing but then it disappeared and the page
was blank.

I'm using the following versions of the pdf viewers:
acroread-5.08
xpdf-2.03
gv-3.5.8-r2

I'm gonna upgrade to the latest available in Gentoo portage right now to
see if that helps:
[ebuild U ] app-text/gv-3.5.8-r4 [3.5.8-r2]  0 kB
[ebuild U ] app-text/xpdf-3.00-r1 [2.03] -cjk +motif  522 kB
[ebuild U ] app-text/acroread-5.09 [5.08] -cjk  9,066 kB

I'll post my results.

-Kevin

After the upgrades, I get the same results as before.

Not sure what else it could be...

This is from the Apache FOP homepage:
=
EPS
FOP provides support for two output targets:
* PostScript (full support).
* PDF (partial support). Due to the lack of a built-in PostScript 
interpreter, FOP can only embed the EPS file into the PDF. Acrobat 
Reader will not currently display the EPS (it doesn't have a PostScript 
interpreter, either) but it will be shown correctly when you print the 
PDF on a PostScript-capable printer. PostScript devices (including 
GhostScript) will render the EPS correctly.

Other output targets can't be supported at the moment because FOP lacks 
a PostScript interpreter.
=

I will try other formats. Perhaps I found a working one for FOP (JPEG, 
GIF or TIFF).

Hi Kevin,
I finally found a solution. I installed JAI into my Apache FOP and now I 
can compile working PDF files by using JPEG and PNG. Actually I'm 
commiting new versions of the openca guide.
