RE: XMLParser error with unicode characters in XML file.
My boss just called me and informed me that on UNIX ( where we have our jars and where we run our application server) its getting an error saying "encoding error utf8". It worked on windows 2000 pro which I am using. Does the utf8 string needs to be different on unix?Paging Vinuta ThanksManoj-Forwarded by Manoj Nair/LA/SPE on 07/07/2004 06:08PM -To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Date: 07/07/2004 11:01AMSubject: RE: XMLParser error with unicode characters in XML file.ThanksVinuta!Thatworkedfine.IhavetestedwithSpanish,German,Italian,FrenchandPortuguese.IamstilltotestJapanese(whichmightbeapaininneck)...Willkeepyouposted...Thanksagaintoallwhoreplied..ManojVinutaNagaraddi[EMAIL PROTECTED]To:[EMAIL PROTECTED]muscle.comcc:Subject:RE:XMLParsererrorwithunicodecharactersinXML07/06/200402:31file.PMPleaserespondtofop-userIhadasimilarproblem.Iamwritingtoafileusingthefollowingcode:FileoutputDir=newFile(outputPath);outputDir.mkdir();StringfoFile=outputPath+"/image.fo";log.debug("Writingtofile"+foFile);FileOutputStreamfileoutstream=newFileOutputStream(foFile);Writerwriter=newOutputStreamWriter(fileoutstream,"utf8");writer.write(foDoc.toString().trim());writer.close();Theimportantpartofthecodeiswritingtothefileusingutf8encoding.VinutaNagaraddi-OriginalMessage-From:[EMAIL PROTECTED][mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent:Tuesday,July06,20045:28PMTo:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Cc:fop-dev@xml.apache.orgSubject:XMLParsererrorwithunicodecharactersinXMLfile.IamgettingaXMLparsingerrorfromweblogic.apache.xerceswhenIparseaXMLdocumentwhichcontainsaccentedcharacters.ThisiswhatIamdoing1)Somedatabasecolumnshaveaccenteddataforspanish,japaneseetclanguageslikeNúmerodeidentificação:andnúmerodeidentificación.2)IamreadingthisdataandcreatingaXMLfileusingsomeprocessingandthenwritingthefileonthediscusingweblogic.xml.stream.XMLOutputStreamflush()method.3)ThenIamusingFOPtorenderthisXMLinPDF.Intherenderingprocesstheweblogic.apache.xerces.XMLparsergetscalledtoparsetheXML.Heretheparserthrowsaorg.xml.sax.SAXParserException(AninvalidXMLcharacter(Unicode:0xfa)wasfoundintheelementcontentofthedocument).IwasundertheimpressionthatXMLParsershouldtakecareoftheaccentedcharacters.WhenIopentheXMLfilewhichIcreatedinXMLSPYIsee"box"characterslike"clientendeidentificaci".Pleaseletmeknowhowshouldihandlemycodehere.ThanksManojThanks-Tounsubscribe,e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Foradditionalcommands,e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: PDF-PS-PDF with EPS
Hi, This is how I process my output from FOP using Ghostscript 7.06 (on Windows XP): gswin32c -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -dConvertCMYKImagesToRGB=false -dAutoFilterColorImages=false -dColorImageFilter=/FlateEncode -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=output.pdf input.pdf Sent a test PDF to the printer a couple of days ago and received the result yesterday and it looks great.

RE: PDF-PS-PDF with EPS
Thanx! We switched from 8.11 to 7.06 and it also works with us now! Maybe something to add on the site? Regards, Wouter de Vaal I've just tried using GhostScript 8.14 and it doesn't work here either. But it works with GNU GhostScript 7.06.

You should definitely get some education about encoding issues rather than stumbling along blindly. Start here for the XML related problems http://skew.org/xml/tutorial/ There are some websites dealing with encoding issues in Java and with transferring files across machines as well.

Re: line-height interpretation
Adam Augusta wrote: I think I've figured out the formula FOP uses. I'm quite sure it's wrong; the height of the block should simply be line-height, if specified in length, or as a multiplier of the font-size, if specified dimensionless. It seems to be: Diff(Ascender,Descender)*font-size/1000 + (line-height - font-size) FOP adds a half-leading display space above and below the line, the half-leading is computed as (lineHeight - fontState.getFontSize()) / 2 There are numerous inconsistencies in the application though.

EPS image printing problem
Hello..
I have a problem with printing EPS images that i have included in my fop
generated pdf file.
I know that it isn't supposed to show up in acrobat but I can't even print
them.
I have tried to view the PDF;s with GSView4.1 but the image wasn't shown
there either.
Thought there was som sort of error in the image so I created a sample image
with Illustrator which wasn't shown either.
The image is however embedded in the pdf file since the file size is rather
big and a space for the image is reserved in the pdf.
I also tried viewing the pdf on another computer with the same result.
I have tried both fop 0.20.4 and 0.20.5 (binary distrubition) and 0.20.5
(source) my testcode is:

Integrating FOP in a Project
Hi evrybody !
excuse me for my english but i'm french so i will try to be clear but ...
so i have a problem with using fop. I work on an application in Java 1.4
and when i use fop to create a file on the file system in a java program it
works
BUT i can't do the same thing with my server. I would generate an PDF in a
servlet with this code :
public static void doPDF(Document xml, Document xsl, Document xslfo,
OutputStream outputstream) throws Exception
{
DOMSource transformXSLT = new DOMSource(xsl);
DOMResult resultatXSLFO = new DOMResult(xslfo);
DOMSource sourceXML = new DOMSource(xml);
logger.warn(XML TO FO TRANSFORMATION BEGIN);
gcpmrds.xsl.xslTransform.transformUri(
sourceXML,
transformXSLT,
null,
resultatXSLFO );
logger.warn(XML TO FO TRANSFORMATION END);
logger.warn(FO TO PDF TRANSFORMATION BEGIN);
File pdffile = new File(C:/Resultat.pdf);
OutputStream out = new java.io.FileOutputStream(pdffile);
out = new java.io.BufferedOutputStream(out);
logger.warn(A);
//Driver driver = new Driver((InputSource)xslfo,out);
Driver driver = new Driver();
logger.warn(A);
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.setInputSource((InputSource)xslfo);
driver.setOutputStream(out);
driver.run();
out.close();
logger.warn(FO TO PDF TRANSFORMATION END);
}
And my problem is that i haven't any exception or error but the program
never go out of the Driver driver = new Driver() and if i use Driver
driver = new Driver((InputSource)xslfo,out) it's the same problem so i
don't know what's the matter.
Perhaps i've got forget a jar ?
thanks for help !

Trying to Troubleshoot an Issue
Hello all, I'm trying to determine the source of a problem I'm having. I have several documents that include images. Ideally, I would like to control the size of these images by percentage--for example, I would like all images for a document to be 60% of their original size. I had thought I could set these parameters in my XML document, but they don't seem to take. When I use actual point sizes, the images are displayed as expected, but any values that I enter as percentages are ignored. I think the problem lies in one of three places: 1. My XML editor is not assigning the values correctly (I use XMLMind). 2. FOP does not support percentage values yet. 3. My inexperience with XML and such is once again rearing its ugly head. Has anyone else experienced this? If it is a FOP-related issue, could anyone recommend a reliable workaround? Thanks!

I'm not really sure what you attempt to say in this paragraph. The FOP jars have to be put into the WEB-INF/lib directory of your web application and zipped up into the war file which is deployed to the servlet engine. Check the Tomcat docs for more details or ask on the tomcat user list. J.Pietschmann - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
