Hello,

Maybe somebody could give me some hints how to do the following:

1. After PDF is created, I want to find out for every pdf page what
original content is there, I mean I want to know, that from the
beginning of the original xml file until some position in it, content went
to the 1st page of pdf document, then content until another position in
original xml went to the 2nd page and so on.

2. I would like to generate pdf file with only selected pages included (or page
range).

P.S. I am using FOP from a java program.

Thank you,
Yury

Hello Yury,
this are both very odd requirements. Why do you think you'll
need it this way?

In general, the answer is you can't at both accounts. Your specific
context may allow some tricks to achieve it, but it is difficult to
take a shot at it without further knowledge.

Thank you for replying, what I want to do is:

Let's say I have xml document. I've generated its pdf version and I've
have printed it. After some time the original xml document is changed, then I
generate its pdf version again. But now I want to print only pdf
pages, that were changed and I want to do it automatically.

If you are looking for the changed content only, you can try to
implement a diff algorithm for you xml and create change marks in
the pdf, then write a tool, perhaps based on xpdf
(http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/) which prints only the pages with
change marks.
In general, the problem the way you formulated it is difficult to
solve, as small changes in the XML source may change the content
of a lot of pages in the PDF.
