For the announcement I just copied some stuff from CHANGES:
(I really shouldn't write announcements that late..)

-Add support for EPS images in PostScript renderer and limited EPS
  support in PDF Renderer (Tore Engvig)

I don't know what limited means here, maybe Tore can comment.

Hmm, the error message with Batik seems to be wrong, I'll have a look
a this.

Maybe there is a epstosvg converter?
Or we could add support for PDF "graphics", I've succsessfully used
epstopdf and PDFTeX some time ago.

Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Fop 0.20.3 released

Hi,

in the announcement for the fop 0.20.3 release there was a note about
EPS images. I am not sure what this means:

a.) Now you can also use EPS images in the FOP -> PDF process
b.) FOP can now produce an EPS file as output

I guess and hope the first is meant?!
But if so I couldn't figure out how to include EPS images in my fo file.

A simple include by

(just the way as it is done with JPEG) dose not work. I got an error
message like:
--snip--
[INFO]: [2]
[ERROR]: Batik not in class path
[ERROR]: Error while creating area : No ImageReader for this type of
image (myepsfile.eps)
--snip--

What am I doing wrong (by the way batik IS definitely in my classpath)?
Or is there no support for input of EPS images - meaning b.) was right?

Any comments and tips are very wellcome!

Raimund

Yeah, that correct. I've just been on holiday last week and had
no time to send the announcement until now.

I notice the timestamp on the files is 3/4.  Is that right, because that
means I already have code made fresh daily.
