html output format
Hey all, I've spent a couple of hours searching for this with no luck, so feel justified in asking here now. If this is a really stupid question (read my post first), feel free to point it out (o: I have a requirement to edit a document, and then print it. The requirement had been just to print the document, with some basic merge functionality - so I implemented that using FOP for the printing side of it. Now that I need to edit it, my thought had been that I'd just go FOP - html - ekit (html editor) - html - html2fo - FOP - PCL long winded, but seems reasonable, basically all I'd have to do is some plumbing. Now, my question for the list is about going from FOP - html. I cant believe there isn't a standard html output or xsl stylesheet. Most of my searching has come up with answers along the lines of it'd be better to take the initial xml that you use for generating the .fo and applying XSL to that to make html that way. However, I dont have any initial xml, and besides, I dont see why the document shouldn't be stored in FOP (I need to save the lf as well as the data). So, is there somewhere I can find a simple straight forward html output, or even just a stylesheet? I'm convinced it must already exist. Look forward to any suggestions/answers. Please cc me as I'm subscribed in digest mode. cheers dim ps - putting 'html' in a search criteria on the web is almost pointless (o: - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Batik error opening SVG (Was: Re: EPS images not shown in Acrobat)
Jeremias Maerki wrote: snip/ When we used outlines instead of an embedded font, the result in the PDF was rather ugly, not smooth. While the SVG looks perfect in Internet Explorer (Adobe SVG Viewer) and in Squiggle. There's a setting in Acrobat Reader (Preferences/Display) where you can turn on Smoothing for line art. The SVG should then look like in SVG Viewer and Squiggle. That works! Thanks. Strange that's an option - or at least, that it's not turned on by default. snip/ Squiggle can't open the generated SVG either when the font is embedded, it generates the same CSS stylesheet document error.

Re: brain dead newbe
Oleg, Thanks. My problem was that I need a double border around the page and I had used absolutely positioned block-containers to get it. Once I removed them the pagination worked just great.

Scaling of background-image
I'm working on getting a block to use a background image, but it seems that when the image is inserted into the PDF, it's put in at some terribly low resolution. I'm trying to get the image to scale to fit the space of the block, but to no avail. Here's a quick snippet of the FO I'm using: fo:layout-master-set fo:simple-page-master master-name=page-1 page-width=612pt page-height=792pt fo:region-body margin-top=54pt margin-bottom=54pt margin-left=54pt margin-right=36pt / /fo:simple-page-master /fo:layout-master-set fo:page-sequence master-reference=page-1 fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body fo:block background-image=url(MO399Ver1med.jpg) width =522pt height=684pt fo:table table-layout=fixed The jpeg used in the background image is 1462x1982px, and I believe it's being put in the PDF at either 72 or 96 dpi, which causes the PDF to just show the upper left portion of the image. I saw that the FO spec includes the background-position-horizontal and background-position-vertical properties, which look like they'd fit the bill, but aren't implemented yet. I can create a full-page external-graphic using the height and width attributes, but anything else in my FO file flows on to the next page (of course...) I looked at creating a block-container, but it appears that FOP doesn't have any of the absolute positioning properties implemented yet, so I'm not sure how I can get a block on top of the full-page external-graphic. Does anyone have any ideas how to either specify the page size/scaling vector of a block's background-image, or how to overlay a block on top of a full-page external-graphic? I'd be most grateful for any pointers. -Jeff - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How do you set the memory size for FOP
Hello: FOP bombs at about 150 pages with a java.lang.outofmemory error. I gather that the solution is to adjust the size of the java vm using, say, -Xmx256m. Unfortunately, I know absolutely nothing about using java, so I don't know where to do this. I'm using windows NT and here's the batch file I use to run FOP: cd c:\fop java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\batik.jar;lib\xalan-2.0.0.jar;lib\xerces-1.2.3.jar;li b\avalon-framework-4.0.jar;lib\logkit-1.0.jar;lib\jimi-1.0.jar org.apache.fop.apps.Fop c:\drb\output.fo c:\drb\output.pdf pause Can I increase the mem-size within this sequence of commands?

Roland- And just as Jeff was preparing to leave work, a ray of light came down from the sky, and a voice spoke to him. 'Jeff', the voice said, 'I am Roland, the keeper of the knowledge of absolute positioning. Check your e-mail one last time before leaving.' And Jeff checked his e-mail, and saw that instructions had come in electronic format from on high. And Jeff did cut. And Jeff did paste. And Jeff did edit. And Jeff did finally call FOP and open the resulting PDF, and it was good. Thanks a million. That worked beautifully.

RE: How do you set the memory size for FOP
Roland: I had already tried this command: java -cp -Xmx128 build\fop.jar;lib\batik.jar;lib\xalan-2.0.0.jar;lib\xerces-1.2.3.jar;li b\avalon-framework-4.0.jar;lib\logkit-1.0.jar;lib\jimi-1.0.jar org.apache.fop.apps.Fop c:\drb\output.fo c:\drb\output.pdf and it caused java to run out of memory before even a single page was processed. (I ran it with my task manager performance screen displayed, so I know that there was more than 128 meg available, so I assumed I wasn't setting it properly.) Strangely enough, if I remove the -Xmx128, FOP processes 170 pages before running out of memory. Does this mean that the default setting is than 128? (I thought the java default was 64m).
