Background-image
Hi all: I want to put an image as a background in all my pages of the document. In some documentation says that the property background-image can be used to do it in the simple-page-master element but it seems that FOP isn't implement this property because I try to use it and doesn't work. Any suggestion? Perhaps the FOP extensions allow but I don't know where is the documentation of the FOP extension. - Miguel Ángel Medina López Logic Factory: www.logic-factory.com Granada - España - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I think that's misleading, because it's not just text you're trying to align. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. text-align is applyed to inline formatting objects only, but table is block level object.

Grouping by position - Out Of Memory
Hi all, i've been looking in the archive for an example of grouping by position, but i can not seem to find a working example. I have a large xml-file, that i have to transform to a .pdf report. It's about 200 pages (but it can get larger !). It's done with a for-each for every record. And i need to have 2 records/page. I have to limit the amount of memory used by java to 128mb. The result is that i get an out of memory-error. In the archive i've learned that grouping by position would be the solution to the problem. How can i split up the for-each so that i only have 2 records on one page, and that the memory does not get exhausted ?

fixed-width fonts are not fixed-width in FOP print
Greetings, I am trying to use FOP (v0.20.4) from within a Java application to create a printed report that contains very precise spacing. For example, I might have a column of numbers such as: 9.5 17.23 1492.1 that I need to line up on the decimal point. I have attempted to do this using a fixed-width font (Courier) along with white-space-collapse=false. I have tried two possible approaches: 1. Use PDFRenderer - When I test this (courtesy of the built-in FO functionality in XMLSpy5), my printed output is EXACTLY what I want. However, this means an intermediate PDF file being written, followed by a user action to open the file in Acrobat Reader and print it. My requirement is that there be no user interaction, so this option is out. 2. Use AWTRender - I can print the exact same reports without user interaction by adapting the code from the org.apache.fop.apps.PrintStarter. Unfortunately, my fixed-width font is no longer fixed-width. In PrintStarter, AWTRenderer is extended, so I assume this is a shortcoming of AWT? I have verified that the fonts I have attempted to use are available by using .getAvailableFontFamilyNames() in GraphicsEnvironment. Does anyone have any advice how I can get my fixed-width fonts to truly be rendered as fixed-width, without an intermediate PDF file?

Multithreading with FOP
I'm trying to use FOP 0.20.4 in a multi-threaded environment to produce PDFs. As I increase the number of threads from one or two to three or four, the average rendering time per PDF increases significantly. I realize that the host environment (available memory, number of processors, etc etc) can cause this affect, but I was wondering if there are any pitfalls, problems , or best practices with using FOP in a multi-threaded environment.
