AW: AW: Non existent tag error...

2001-11-30 Thread Beer, Christian

Hi Darren!

That's not completely righ.
Your tests check if the attribute named tagname exists, 
not the tag named tagname.

Betreff: RE: AW: Non existent tag error...


I've found that the test needs to encompass three possibilities:

1. That the tag is not present;
2. That the tag is empty (ie. tagname=''), or;
3. That the tag is present and contains a value.

If you use test=@tagname, the test will be true in cases 2 and 3. However,
if you use test=not(@tagname='') (or test=@tagname!='') then it will
only be true for case 3, at least this is the case with the parser I use. So
it depends on whether or not you want different behaviour when the tag is
missing than you want when the tag is present but empty.

I did not solve the problem, I was going to add the
line that I said oops on in the original message,
sorry for the confusion. I will try this and see if it
works.

Thanks,

 Hi Bryan,
 
 did you solve the problem, or what does the oops
 mean??
 
 Anyway: 
 
  xsl:when
 test=Transaction/Filing/OldFilingNumber
  !=
  ''
 
 is not right, I think! Try:
 xsl:when test=Transaction/Filing/OldFilingNumber
 
 That is the right term, the book says so.

Re: CVS snapshot does not render

2001-11-30 Thread Keiron Liddle


As previously stated current cvs does NOT work.

It will not work until the code is written to make it work.

If you want something that works then stick with the releases (ie. 0.20.2).

Pre Formatted Text

2001-11-30 Thread Jim Urban

I am using FOP to generate PDFs on the fly from XML.  One of my XML elements
contains a large (1K - 1M) preformatted (contains LFs) block of text.  When
I display this field in HTML I use a PRE tag.  Is there a FO tag that FOP
supports that functions similarly?

Optional + on integer and number

2001-11-30 Thread Peter B. West

Dear Dandies,

Before I send this question to the editors, I'll ask it here in case I'm 
missing something obvious.  How is the optional '+', on integer and 
number types, expressed in grammar of Section 5.9?

Quote from 5.11 Property Datatypes---

integer

 A signed integer value which consists of an optional '+' or '-' 
character followed by a sequence of digits. A property may define 
additional constraints on the value.

 NOTE:

 A '+' sign is allowed for CSS2 compatibility.
number

 A signed real number which consists of an optional '+' or '-' 
character followed by a sequence of digits followed by an optional '.' 
character and sequence of digits. A property may define additional 
constraints on the value.

Endquote

Simple extension problem

2001-11-30 Thread joseph . aloysius . gilvary

Greetings all,

I'm learning to write extensions and I'm trying to start simple.
I think I've followed the directions on the Extensions page
(http://xml.apache.org/fop/extensions.html), but something
is still missing or incorrect.

I'm using JDK build 1.4.0-beta3-b84 with Fop0.20.2 on
Windows 2000, Service Pack 3.

I have a Java class to simply output the Date in the default
locale.  Eventually I'll need to get content from log files and
database tables,  etc., but I just want to see output from my
extension class show up in the rendered result right now.

I have an ElementMapping subclass that parallels
the functionality used to support the fox:label tag.

I have a single line of text in the text file
META-INF/services/org.apache.fop.fo.ElementMapping
with the fully qualified class name for that ElementMapping
subclass:

gov.census.geo.pob.fop.extensions.TimeDisplayMapping

I stored the jar in my Fop-0.20.2\lib\ directory.

My stylesheet element includes the attributes
 xmlns:pob=http://jgilvary.geo.census.gov/;
 extension-element-prefixes=pob

When I try to use pob:time / in the fo file, there is no output
in pdf or awt. There are no more error messages about
Transformer errors or ClassNotFoundExceptions, so I
think I'm getting closer. Everything else I do in that file
works (png images, pdf bookmarks and internal links),
so I believe the set up is correct.

I'm doing something wrong or not doing something right G

Any help greatly appreciated.

 Thanks,

 Joe

Re: Fill pattern problem

2001-11-30 Thread Keiron Liddle

Hi,

Have you tried the svg standalone though batik.
The exception is being thrown by batik. It looks like a problem where 
batik causes a class cast exception when an image cannot be found (ie. 
file:///m:/overlay.txt is wrong). The problem is that batik tries to load 
a broken image svg from within batik. When it tries to load this image it 
uses the default xml parser (which is wrong) and then cannot load it, so 
it uses a simple svg instead. In another part it gets a graphics hint from 
the image's object but java incorrectly returns an Object instead of null 
then the class cast exception occurs as it expects another type of object 
that is only with the brocken link image.

So the result is that batik was fixed to handle this better and FOP sets 
the default xml parser on batik. If I remember correctly this was in the 
last release.

Re: Added letter-spacing support to Fop

2001-11-30 Thread Keiron Liddle

Hi Raymond,

I appreciate your patch.
I have had a quick look at it appears that it would do the right thing. 
One thing is that for the pdf renderer I think there might be a better way 
to specify the character spacing (Tc operator I think).

As far as getting it into the current cvs, the problem is that the current 
cvs has changed a great deal since 0.20.2 and we are working the basic way 
that FOP handles fo and ultimately creates the output. Your changes would 
be useable but only some of it can be put into the current cvs.

The main problem is that a fair amount of work needs to be done before FOP 
will do anything useful and most of the people who have been doing this 
don't have the time at the moment.

It is a priority to get FOP to a stage where everyone can understand what 
is happening and to be able to contribute individual pieces of work (such 
as your patch) that will improve FOP.

The options area:
- put your patch on the maintenence brach and sometime soon do a 
maintanence release
- you could make the patch for the current cvs, only about half will be 
possible and it will not work for a while
- you could help out with getting current cvs to work

I release there are no quick solutions but this is something that has to 
be done to make FOP better in the long term.

Thanks,
Keiron.

 Hi,
 
 I've added support for the 'letter-spacing' property. A patch to fop

 appreciate some feedback on this. For example, what changes are 
 necessary to get letter-spacing support integrated into CVS.

 Hi,
 
 Have you tried the svg standalone though batik.
 The exception is being thrown by batik. It looks like a problem where
 batik causes a class cast exception when an image cannot be found (ie.
 file:///m:/overlay.txt is wrong). 


My apologies, I didn't explain. The given SVG file was saved as 
m:/overlay.txt.

I will try Batik by itself.then maybe hop to the Batik mailinglist.

 That's your choice. However, you should realize that this is going to

 irrelevance until the rewrite is finished. I'm personally going to have 
 pull references to FOP out of the online XML Bible chapters and the next 
 edition of XML in a Nutshell, and switch my own toolchains over to 
 PassiveTeX. Although this is a small change conceptually, it is one that 
 affects pretty much *every* XSL-FO document anyone is ever going to 
 write.
 
 FOP has a large mindshare because it was first and because it is open 
 source. Leaving this minor change until the rewrite is done is pretty 
 much going to abandon the competitive advantages FOP has gained by being 
 first. People will move to PassiveTeX, XEP, Antenna House, and other 
 products instead. If that's OK with you, then that's your choice. Just 
 make sure this is in fact what you want to happen.

To put it another way.
I could keep doing all the small things for everyone while telling them 
that a whole set of problems will be solved at some indefinite time in the 
future which keeps getting further away. This will also eventually condemn 
FOP to irrelevance.
Doing that will also mean that other people are not able to get involved 
with FOP as there is a major change that needs to happen to get many 
things working properly.

If people really insist then I can make a release soon. This will delay 
any other important improvements.

If someone else really thinks there are things that need doing then I 
strongly suggest that you get busy and do them.

Does anyone else have any better suggestions? I would be glad to hear them.

Please excuse my stupidity

I had the following in the SVG:

  g id=overlay opacity=0.07
 rect x=0 y=0 width=900 height=470 fill=url(#pattern) 
stroke=black stroke-width=0
   /g

Note lack of end tag for the rect

Still, the error msg threw me a little.

Re: FOP conformance

2001-11-30 Thread Carmelo Montanez

Hi All:

Actually I was not implying or suggesting that you correct FOP and
make it work for just the page-reference property, that will be a minor
change on the great scheme of things, however if you have a number
of minor things, it eventually adds up to a lot of things.

On my particular case, I will be unable to take advantage of all the 
wonderful things FOP has to offer.  It will be nice to check the
tests (I think we will have thousands of tests) against various
implementations. 

I guess my point is that even if FOP does not have those
minor things at this point, maybe it can have them
at some not too distant future.

Keiron,

as far as I know, RTF does support the following (but jfor currently not for 
most of these things) - In parentheses, my understanding of these concepts, 
to make sure we're on the same wavelength:

static areas - yes (headers and footers)
markers - yes (references like see page N)
page numbers - yes (dynamic auto-numbering)

But things like page numbers must be left to RTF to compute, FOP will need to 
include an *RTF code* to let the RTF reader compute page numbers, not compute 
them by itself.

Jaggies

2001-11-30 Thread James Richardson


When rendering my previous post, Batik seems to be able to render fine 
in the GUI, but when included in FOP ( either as external graphic, or 
instream foreign object ), the rendered text has the most ugly jaggies.

I think I read in the archive that FOP rasterises the SVG before 
inserting into the PDF. Is this right? Why? Can this be turned off?

Re: FOP conformance

2001-11-30 Thread Arved Sandstrom

Hi, Christian

That would be much appreciated. As before, I can do the actual release
itself once someone has notified me (read the list) that they think the
time is right.

As regards the topic in general, I support Keiron 100%. The entire point of
the rewrite is that during the process things are in limbo...this was well
understood before, or so I thought. Making improvements to a pre-rewrite
release such as FOP-0.20.2 should not use any cycles from the most
productive coders we currently have on this project. IMHO. Which is why
having others chip in is much appreciated.

I can spare enough time to support commits to FOP-0.20.2, and minor work,
since I am currently most definitely _not_ a productive coder. :-) I'd plead
time pressure, which has been a major factor, but to be honest what I have
really been much of this year is simply burnt out on Java. I am much less
enthused about it than I was before, and for the past 2 years, after using
it at work every single day (J2EE, J2ME) I hardly wanted to use it again in
my own time.

I say that simply so the other committers become aware of what the situation
is. I have most definitely not lost interest in FOP or XSL-FO - I just need
a rest from Java, rather badly. But in any case I can support minor work
such as this maintenance release. I am currently working on a contract which
has absolutely zero to do with Java and XML (it's SQL, C++, ASP), which is
so refreshing that I cannot even begin to describe it. :-) Hopefully that'll
clear my head and allow me to get back into Java coding again.

Arved Sandstrom

fo:external-graphic question

2001-11-30 Thread Savino, Matt C

Has anyone figured out a way to use a relative path with the file:...
protocol in fo:external-graphic? The path below works on my Unix boxes. The
probem is I develop in an NT box and I'm getting tired of changing my
stylesheets every time I upload to the staging or porduction servers. 

This is the full path which works:
fo:external-graphic
src=file:///usr/local/weblogic/config/isappdev/applications/RVWebApp1/WEB-I
NF/lib/ClinTrialLogoGreenBig.gif /

But every time I try to use something like this:
fo:external-graphic
src=file://./config/isappdev/applications/RVWebApp1/WEB-INF/lib/ClinTrialLo
goGreenBig.gif /

I get this error:
Error while creating area : Invalid Image URL - error on relative URL : no
protocol: null/config/isap
pdev/applications/RVWebApp1/WEB-INF/lib/ClinTrialLogoGreenBig.gif

By the way I still haven't found a way to get the file protocol to work on
NT. I have to use HTTP. I could use HTTP on the Unix boxes, but I'd still
have to change the port every time.

Any ideas, even a pointer would be greatly appreciated.

 I've found that the test needs to encompass three
 possibilities:
 
 1. That the tag is not present;
 2. That the tag is empty (ie. tagname=''), or;
 3. That the tag is present and contains a value.
 
 If you use test=@tagname, the test will be true in
 cases 2 and 3. However,
 if you use test=not(@tagname='') (or
 test=@tagname!='') then it will
 only be true for case 3, at least this is the case
 with the parser I use. So
 it depends on whether or not you want different
 behaviour when the tag is
 missing than you want when the tag is present but
 empty.

Re: no visual tool for FOP?

2001-11-30 Thread Enrico Schnepel

Like FOP html2fo is still under development. It is stable but not complete. 
You are welcome to send me a list of html tags you want to be supported - or 
even better a sample file where they are used.

 I am interested in  most html2pdf, html2fo,  but after I tried
 any of them, i am frustrated. some very lame ones support only
 3 tags even.  so i am wondering this tool support all html
 tags specified in HTML 4.0 DTD?

  Hello
 
  I've developed a tool html2fo for conversion of .html files to .fo.
  http://html2fo.sourceforge.net
  A similar tool is
  WH2FO at
  http://www-uk.hpl.hp.com/people/fabgia/wh2fo/wh2fo.html
 
  WH2FO is optimized for Word 2000 html files - html2fo is more general.

   XMLSpy 4.1 has FO transformation built in as an option under the XSL
   menu. All you have to do is point it to FOP.bat. I guess you could call
   this a visual tool. But I'm going to guess that what the original
   poster is looking for is some kind of a WYSIWIG PDF editor that
   manipulates the underlying FO? That would be a pretty intense project.
  
   Do you think Adobe will ever implement a built-in fop processor? The
   Acrobat plug-in could come to life any time the browser comes across a
   .fo file, just like it does now when it sees a .pdf. Any pages that
   require precise coloring, layout, pagination, etc. would be candidates
   for conversion from html to fo. Definitely some interesting
   possibilities here. I suppose people could be doing the same thing now
   if they have Exchange, but when you can make little changes through a
   text editor it's a lot more convenient.
  
  
   You'd think they'd be all for it since it could drastically increase
   PDF viewing on the web. Although I guess it could cut into sales of
   their full-version Acrobat (what used to be called Exchange). So what
   part of it would they sell? Hmmm. Can even they do this within the
   licensing rules of this project?

Subject: RE: no visual tool for FOP?
   
   
Hi team
   
This is also something I am curious about. Here are two
embryonic ideas -
can anyone see any merit in them?
   
1   XMLSpy seems to have the ability to convert a Word
document to XML. Could
XSLT be used to transform this XML to FO, and thence to PDF?
Then Word could
be used as the visual tool.
   
2   Sun's new Star Office apparently saves files as XML (see
http://xml.coverpages.org/starOfficeXML.html ). Could the
word processor
from StarOffice be used as the visual tool?
   
By the way, XMLSpy mentions support or fop - does anyone have
experience
with this?

Re: Pre Formatted Text

Hello Jim,

try:

fo:block white-space-collapse=false

 I am using FOP to generate PDFs on the fly from XML.  One of my XML
 elements contains a large (1K - 1M) preformatted (contains LFs) block of
 text.  When I display this field in HTML I use a PRE tag.  Is there a FO
 tag that FOP supports that functions similarly?

I wouldn't expect that to work; that says make a file connection to the 
host '.', which is the root of the entire Internet.

If you want a relative URI, why not just use a relative URI?  I.e., 
src=config/isappdev/applications/RVWebApp1/WEB-INF/lib/ClinTrialLogoGreenBig.gif? 
Then the current protocol, host, and directory will be used as the base URI 
and the relative URI interpreted relative to that.
