eps preview - question

2002-05-24 Thread Torsten Erler

Hi all

I've a little(?) problem on previewing eps graphics in an awt-rendered
window.

I know that acrobat reader doesn't preview emebedded postscript. But have I
misunderstood, I thought fop does the preview on screen!? I'm using
'external-graphic' for that. My rendered page does preserve the space
correct for the picture but it doesn't show everything of the picture.
I need this preview to give the user the possibility to cancel the
printerjob before printing.

Has anyone an idea what is going wrong or a way to do it?
ThanX
cu Torsten

Neither Acrobat Reader not the AWT renderer can display an EPS image.
EPS only works with the PDF renderer IF(!) the document is printed to a
PostScript printer, or with the PostScript renderer. No other renderer
in FOP can do aynthing with an EPS.

Have you tried GhostView (GhostScript)?  It can view EPS and PDF.

P.S. Is there another known way to make eps visible in java?

Well, there's only one Level 1 PostScript viewer around, I think:

I doubt that you will get happy with it. I'd rather suggest to convert
your EPS images to SVG using Adobe Illustrator 9 or later.

 Ok thanks! :(
