Hi: I'm a long-time FOP User and code tweaker, and have been trying to get the AWTRenderer to do its thing for a part of a project I'm working on. For the most part, I've been successful here, but for the life of me, I can't get the fonts to render properly. Everything seems to want to render

Hyphenated text as String

Hey Foppers: Is there some way to get the hyphenated text of a particular block(s) returned as a string (with hyphens in place)? Since FOP puts hyphens in place at the time of the transform, I'm hoping to get back the hyphenated strings of specific blocks for a different portion of my

Hyphenator is called by a specific block, I think I could ferret out the rest pretty quick. I checked the Javadoc, but couldn't find which class(es) used hyphenator on the block-level. Thanks for your help! jw On Tuesday, October 8, 2002, at 04:53 PM, J.Pietschmann wrote: Jim Wright wrote

RE: Problems with images (scaling)...

Put the external graphic inside of a properly-sized block container. Skip the scaling, content-height, and content-width stuff. .png and .gif files work fine with this approach. DPI is increased appropriately as image is scaled down, which helps make high-resolution .gifs out of low-res ones.
