Re: Using FOP / trying to embed FOP
Hi Kevin
This is probably a classpath problem (NoClassDefFoundError). You've got
to make sure that fop.jar (as well as batik and friends) are on your
classpath. Example:
java -cp fop.jar;batik.jar;other-jars... embed simple.fo testembed.pdf
Look at fop.bat as another example.
Don't try to compile FOP from the command line using javac. Use the Ant
build script instead and then use the generated fop.jar in your
application.
Another comment further down...
Please be so kind as to ask this sort of question on the fop-user
mailing list next time. Thanks and good luck!

Re: Using FOP in Servlet
Joerg, I think the easiest way to do this is something like this (taken from the Fop task in org/apache/fop/tools/anttasks/Fop.java) Configuration.put(baseDir, SOMEURLSTRING); You may want to do the whole configuration initialization process anyway just to get things like compression and fonts. When running FOP from the command line, most of the configuration work happens in the Options class (org.apache.fop.apps), so you might want to look at that too.
