Re: Printing PDF using FOP.

[Hitesh Bagchi]

I downloaded a fresh set of code from the fop cvs and did find the
PCLRenderer
and the other latest source code. But as far I could make out
PCLRenderer does
not print to a printer instead it prints to a file in pcl format. Now in
case of
pcl as well I do have to send the output to the printer. So my previous
problem
remains.
I am actually not getting how can I send the output to the printer. I
think if
somebody can
provide with a code fragment then it would be of great help.

Thanks,
Hitesh

RE: Wrapping in Cell Question

[John Wyman]

Karen,
I believe I found the problem, it had to do with centering in cells
where I was imbedding a text to be centered in the cell
itself, and the  was setting the text-align=center, this didn't
work, instead I switched to using the calstbl cell center and it now
works, although the wrapping is not perfect, but I need to do more
testing to be sure.

I am still very interested if you can find a fix for my problem where
the 3rd cell with line number prints at the bottom of a page, but the
text is on the next page with the next number.

Hi John,

FOP has changed a great deal since version 12, so it's hard to say what
exactly is happening.

It may just be that I'm getting tired, but I can't quite figure out what
the FO file is going to look like from your partial XML and XSL. It
would be helpful if you could send either the complete files or maybe
just the FO code for the table which isn't working correctly. You can
get the FO by running XALAN or some other XSLT processor on your XSL and
XML files without running FOP.

Re: [GUMP] Build Failure - Fop

[Karen Lease]

Hi all,

I see there are several of these. I guess they are coming from the
automatic nightly build. The exception is being thrown by the stylesheet
itself because one of its named templates sees an unexpected situation.
Since none of the xsl or foproperties.xml files in codegen has been
touched for a couple of months, I can only think that this is compiling
with a recent Xalan which doesn't work with the FOP XSL. 

I must admit that I don't know much about how the build process works.
Does anyone know what we should do to find and fix the problem?

Regards,
Karen

Hi Arved,

I noticed this too. But then I discovered that hyphen.fo worked
perfectly from the command line! It took me some time (longer than it
should have), but I finally traced the problem to the fact that the
runtests.sh has builtools.jar before the fop.jar in the CLASSPATH. It
turns out my buildtools.jar (and probably a lot of other people's too)
is out of date and contains an old version of HyphenationTree.class.
When I rebuilt buildtools.jar (or put fop.jar in front of it), hyphen.fo
is fine. 

Cheers,
Karen

Use FOP 0.16.0 ;-)

Just kidding, here's a possible workaround:

text-decoration="underline">courrier New

  is a non-breaking space (also known as   in html)

Yes, there is a problem ... have a look a at the servlet example at

OK, these all sound like things that will get tackled in FOP-0.19.1. My 
apologies for the CHANGES file...I knew there was something I missed.

Incidentally, I have an idea for something that one person can tackle, and 
it doesn't involve intimate knowledge of layout, and it won't be heavily 
affected by layout changes. And it's not make-work. Namely, a GUI interface 
to FOP.

You've maybe seen the AntennaHouse XSL Formatter? Worth checking out if you 
haven't. I have to grudgingly admit that this is darned handy, and I'm sure 
that a lot of users would like this kind of graphical interface to FOP.

So this is something maybe to interest you.

Arved

Hi, Eugene

Can you elaborate? :-) Because I did not observe anything of the kind.

Bear in mind that there are 2 things you can do:

1) increase your JVM memory allocation (how to do this is in the API docs 
for the JDK tools);

2) use the file buffering supplied by Seshadri GK and now part of FOP; use 
your typical command-line, and add a "-buf buffer_file" switch. That is,

java -cp $CLASSPATH -buf mybuffer.buf -fo fofile -pdf pdffile

or something similar.

Please let us know the circumstances that led to the Out of Memory, and your 
machine parameters.
