Does anyone know if there is a way to do this ?
You can't do this. Stylesheet includes can only use statically
known URIs.
Actually, you probably don't need to set the URI dynamically.
The URI may be a relative URL. If all your style sheets reside
in the same directory, simply write href=anXSLfile.xsl or
such.
More exhaustive: Generating PDF from XML using FOP is actually
a two pass process. The first pass is the XSL transformation, where
you apply an XSL stylesheet to the input XML to generate formatting
objects, also an XML structure. The software doing the transformation
is the XSLT processor, FOP comes with Xalan for this purpose. The
result of the transformation is passed to the formatter, the FOP
software itself, which produces the PDF.
The distinction is relevant: xsl:input is an *instruction* for the XSLT
processor, while fo:external-graphic src=URI/ is *generated* by
the transformation and an instruction for the formatter. The URIs in
the href respective src attribute are interpreted in different
environments. For xsl:include it's the XSLT processor, which uses
the base URI (the directory for files) of the stylesheet where the
xsl:include instruction occurs for resolving relative URLs. The
formatter may use something completely different, it may use the
current directory for file URLs which may be something strange
in a servlet environment, or it may use a configuration setting.
With the knowledge of how relative URLs are resolved, you can get
rid of any absolute filenames in your stylesheets. If you have to
move between environments where absolute filenames change, a sensible
organisation can save you work. Put all style sheets into one
directory and use the filename as relative URL in xsl:include and
xsl:import. Set the base directory for the formatter explicitely
for example from a servlet configuration value and use relative
URLs for images too.

Layout Problems with PDF
Hi, I know this problem has been discussed some times before, (the first time 2000-10-8, at this time i hardly knew XML at all ;) but i'm not able to find anything like a solution or comment that might help me. The problem is as follows: We're trying to create documents like invoices via XML, and to print them, we use xsl with formatting objects, and last but not least, we use FOP (0.20.2 CR) to generate PDF-Files we'd print after a preview. Now the problem is, that all layout information like page margin or cell-width in tables are not displayed/printed correctly, which makes the conversion to PDF practically useless. These problems don't occur when we send the output directly to the printer, then every inch is set correctly. Also, tests run with XEP 2.5 as Formatter seem to have the same results, and the PDF-Files are unusable. i'd appreciate a comment on this problem, regards, Lars Karschen -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Unicode interpretation
Joerg Flotho [EMAIL PROTECTED] We have different versions of interpretations regarding unicode: [...] (hexadecimal or decimal seems to make no difference). That's by design :-) After passing XALAN some signs were interpreted wrong.(viewing in IE 5.0 as filename.fo) [...] I suppose some characters are displayed as unexpected glyphs on the screen. This may have rather different causes: - There is no appropriate font on the system for supplying information how those characters are rendered. - The software has difficulties with the encoding of the characters in a file and therefore interprets some characters as being other characters than originally meant. - There are typos in the character references in the XML source file. Your description doesn't make clear which of these apply, maybe even all toghether. 1. Make sure the character references (#160; and the like) in the source file are correct. 2. Check whether the fonts on all relevant machines can map the characters you use. In case of PDF, this may not only involve the machine where the PDF is generated but also the machines on which the PDF is viewed. FOP must know abou the fonts too. This should be relevant only if you use somewhat esoteric characters (for middle-european cultures) like special mathematical symbols. 3. Be sure that the encoding in the XML declaration at the beginning of your XML source file matches the actual encoding. This shouldn't be relevant if all characters which aren't US-ASCII are typed as character references (like #254;). If in doubt, check whether there are any non-ASCII characters in the file, and replace all you find by their corresponding character reference. German umlauts, non-breaking spaces and typographic quotes are not ASCII. If this doesn't help, produce a minimal XML file with a character reference whose rendering does not meet your expectations, like ?xml version=1.0? char#1234;/char and describe how you expect the character to be rendered and what you get, and perhaps what OS you run and what font you expect to be used for rendering the character (which should of course be installed).

Re: Footer problem : region-body encroaching on region-after
I have noticed the same thing happening for tables encroaching onto footnotes (the footnote disappears if any part of the table overlaps). However, in this case both the footnote and the table are within the region-body, so adding a margin doesn't help. Any ideas?? Thanks, Doug.

maintenance branch
Hello every one, great thanks to the Fop developpers for their job. I hear here and there about the maintenance branch CVS... is there any chance for a maintenance release in the next weeks ? I don't want to disturb anyone with my question. I am just asking because I don't know what is the status of the REC compliance with fop dist. The doc says 0.20.2RC is REC, but...

See section 6.4.12 of the XSL spec for a couple diagrams and some description. Yes, I realized this later. I foolishly misunderstood a comment in The XSL Companion, where I read (p. 156) : «When some or all the other, optional regions are also needed, they occupy space around the region body (beyond that already created by the page margins)». Only later did I see what was meant (p. 158) : « within the margins of the body, other regions can be defined », I had naively assumed this would have been automatic. Thank you for your help.

Re: Unicode interpretation
Thank you! I checked your hints and answer after the respective positions. -Ursprungliche Nachricht- Von: Joerg Pietschmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 9. Januar 2002 12:42 An: FOP List Betreff: Re: Unicode interpretation 3. Joerg Flotho [EMAIL PROTECTED] We have different versions of interpretations regarding unicode: [...] (hexadecimal or decimal seems to make no difference). That's by design :-) After passing XALAN some signs were interpreted wrong.(viewing in IE 5.0 as filename.fo) [...] I suppose some characters are displayed as unexpected glyphs on the screen. This may have rather different causes: - There is no appropriate font on the system for supplying information how those characters are rendered. - The software has difficulties with the encoding of the characters in a file and therefore interprets some characters as being other characters than originally meant. - There are typos in the character references in the XML source file. Your description doesn't make clear which of these apply, maybe even all toghether. 1. Make sure the character references (#160; and the like) in the source file are correct. Lower than 256 they are correct. 2. Check whether the fonts on all relevant machines can map the characters you use. in principle the used characters are maped correctly. Checked in word. In case of PDF, this may not only involve the machine where the PDF is generated but also the machines on which the PDF is viewed. is the same in this case. FOP must know about the fonts too. This should be relevant only if you use somewhat esoteric characters (for middle-european cultures) like special mathematical symbols. 3. Be sure that the encoding in the XML declaration at the beginning of your XML source file matches the actual encoding. This shouldn't be relevant if all characters which aren't US-ASCII are typed as character references (like #254;). If in doubt, check whether there are any non-ASCII characters in the file, and replace all you find by their corresponding character reference. German umlauts, non-breaking spaces and typographic quotes are not ASCII. We have only character references. The encoding at the beginning of the xml.file was not beeing matched, but the engine writes UTF-8 by itself. If this doesn't help, produce a minimal XML file with a character reference whose rendering does not meet your expectations, like ?xml version=1.0? char#1234;/char and describe how you expect the character to be rendered and what you get, and perhaps what OS you run and what font you expect to be used for rendering the character (which should of course be installed). The copyright-symbol (x00A9) is interpreted correctly, I think because it's lower than 256. Second example: a left-arrow (x2190). In filename.fo it's displayed correctly. In the pdf it appears as an angle. The used font is Arial. Using Arial Unicode MS makes no difference.(Maybe the syntax wasn't correctly) Is white space allowed? Is it a question of embedding fonts too?

How to rotate text 90 degrees using fop, please help me???
Does anyone know how I can rotate text 90 degrees, so that it appears vertically. I have used reference-orientation but this is not supported by fop.

Re: Table Improvements
Karen, Is this functionality in 0.20.2? It doesn't work for me. FOP complains about the table-layout property and the table columns aren't proportionally sized. Plus, the docs/examples/fo/tableunits.fo doesn't exist. Thanks, Scott - Original Message - From: Karen Lease [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, October 14, 2001 4:46 PM Subject: Table Improvements Hi all, I just committed some new table functionality to CVS. You can now do things like fo:table table-layout=fixed width=100% fo:table-column column-width=proportional-column-width(2) fo:table-column column-width=proportional-column-width(1) . You can mix absolute and proportional units in the same table and even on the same column. See docs/examples/fo/tableunits.fo for some examples. Also, Fop is now looking at the table-layout property. Since it defaults to auto and Fop still doesn't do auto, it will print an annoying warning on every table. That is to remind you to put table-layout=fixed on your tables! Fop is also using inline-progression-dimension on table instead of width. But don't worry; if you specify width, it will use that as inline-progression-dimension.optimal. Have fun!

Re: Table Improvements
Okay, I just looked at the release date on 0.20.2 and see it was 9/29/2001. Since your email was after that, I'm guessing the new table functionality is not in 0.20.2.

RE: Concat
Hi, this works but sometimes you need to concat / which is sometimes
interpreted
as XPath. I've had this a number of times and then concat comes in very
handy.
But glad to hear your problem is fixed.
