Summary: Better feedback needed for unknown image formats
Product: Fop
Version: 1.0dev
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: general
AssignedTo: fop-dev@xmlgraphics.apache.org
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If an image in an unknown format is specified as a background-image, FOP gives
a misleading error message:
<fo:block background-image="unknown.xyz">Block</fo:block>
org.apache.fop.fo.properties.CommonBorderPaddingBackground getInstance
SEVERE: Background image not available: unknown.xyz
When the same image is specified as an external-graphic, the error message is
hardly better:
<fo:external-graphic src="unknown.xyz"/>
org.apache.fop.events.LoggingEventListener processEvent
SEVERE: Image not available. URI: unknown.xyz. Reason:
org.apache.xmlgraphics.image.loader.ImageException: No ImagePreloader found for
unknown.xyz
I discovered the issue by stumbling upon an svg file that didn't contain any
doctype declaration, hence not recognized as svg. Feedback should be improved
by clearly mentioning that the image is of an unrecognized format.
