Re: svg content not compiling

2002-03-13 Thread David Morris

Not sure if this is related, but do you have any AWT support on 
your Linux box? On an iSeries or AS/400 system I have to run a 
version of X-windows and a package that supplies native AWT 
support. I believe that the PJA package works on Linux systems.
You can find out more about PJA at: http://www.eteks.com/pja/en/

I have complied an xml file with an xsl file containing svg content on
my windows mechine and it works fine... but when i compile the same
files on my linux mechine with the same distribution of fop (0.20.3) it
crashes:
Exception in thread main java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
at org.apache.fop.svg.SVGElement.init(SVGElement.java:197)
at org.apache.fop.svg.SVGElement.init(SVGElement.java:84)


It seems to be the classpath issue involving batik.jar.  I have all of
the needed .jar files located in JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/.

What else do i need to try in order to solve this problem.  I also need
to solve this for tomcat (FopServlet runs fine as long as there is no
svg elements)

Thanks,

Re: Configuring the FOP 0.18 in Cocoon 1.8 or more

2001-09-24 Thread David Morris

sudhakar,

I wrote an article for the August issue of Midrange Computing that covers that topic. 
If you do not have access to the magazine, I can forward a copy of that article to 
you. The main challenges are with the Cocoon jar file. I found through a process of 
elimination that on some releases (V4R5  some group) one package had to be removed 
from the jar file. The article covers setup with Tomcat, which I would recommend over 
WebSphere.

The installation is pretty strait forward and can be as simple as drag and drop from a 
working windows setup to a mapped drive on your AS/400 or iSeries. You then have to 
modify Tomcat's startup script, which isn't too hard to set the appropriate class path.

Re: FOP on IBM AS400

2001-09-24 Thread David Morris

Stephen,

I have also used FOP quite a bit on an iSeries AS/400. Ideally you should be on V4R5 
or V5R1 with the latest group and cum. On earlier groups, I experienced problems 
loading some classes. I have been using the .19 version distributed with Cocoon2.

 Hi
 
 We are attempting to port our application which uses fop 0.20.1 to the AS400.
 We seems to have some issues with FOP's use of AWT classes. Has anyone any
 experience of this environment ? Is it possible to configure FOP not to use
 AWT or is it fundemental ?
 
 We have bmp files as external-graphic's, and we are rendering to PDF,PS and
 PCL.

I've successfully run FOP on a AS/400 with PDF, PS and PCL output but without
images. I *think* BMP images should work as they don't need AWT.

Compressing Input Document

2001-09-19 Thread David Morris

Group,

I am wondering if there is a way to compress the XSL-FO document passed to FOP.  We 
have been experimenting with FOP via Cocoon, Cocoon2, and standalone. One tact was to 
use JDOM to create a DOM XSL-FO tree passed to FOP.  The data passed to FOP seems 
pretty excessive and will not scale to our needs. We saw about a 35X increase from 
input to carefully crafted XSL-FO document. There may still be some opportunity for us 
to trim this down, but table formatting seems to use up a lot of space.

Is there a way to compress the XSL-FO object down to a reasonable size? The data 
itself appears to be very redundant.

Thanks,

David Morris
