Re: SPAM-LOW: Building FOP
Try editing the FOP build.bat file, remove the @echo off from the first line. Rerun the build.bat and you will see which command fails - this should tell you what the problem is.

Error while trying to open PDF(created using FOP) in Adobe Illustrator
Hi, We tried to generate a pdf (an image) with embedded fonts and are facing a problem. The process that we are following is outlined below. Process 1. We first generate a SVG image of the Chart using Corda PopChart version 5.1. - The reason for choosing SVG as an intermediate image format is that it supports embedding of fonts (which reduces the file size). If we try to generate a PDF directly using PopChart, the fonts are not embedded and the image file turns out to be pretty bulky. 2. Data from the generated SVG is extracted and fed to the Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor). 3. The FOP generates the PDF version of the SVG image. Problem The PDF generated does not open in Adobe Illustrator. In Illustrator version 9, it says that Missing Double-byte fonts have been substituted with the default font. In version 11 CS, it says that Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. Could not create internal representation of XMP metadata. However, these images open up fine in Adobe Acrobat, Acrobat Reader as well as Adobe PhotoShop. Also, if we open the image in Adobe Acrobat and save it again, subsequently it opens up fine in Illustrator. It is important that we be able to edit it using Illustrator as that is what the users of the system will be using. We are looking for reasons as to why it's not working; are we missing out any detail? Attached alongwith are the following files: 1. 109...svg - This is the SVG image generated by PopChart. Opens up fine in IE. 2. 109...fo - Intermediate file produced by FOP. 3. 109...pdf - Final PDF generated by FOP.

This has always been a problem for me. The only way as far as I know, is to first create a surface and then place the PDF object using File-Place.

sticking words
I've tried to change 'zoom' value in AcrobatReader but it didn't help me. I found that the problem exists only when I've got a lot of fo:block tags. When I tried to simulate this situation on one paged document and I couldn't. It's often happend on the second page of the document. Any ideas ? plastic - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Newbie: Fopservlet problem
Hello, Did some further investigation, looks like it is an oracle problem. See part of the error: at com.evermind[Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE 10g (9.0.4.0.0)].server.http.ServletRequestDispatcher.invoke(ServletRequestD ispatcher.java:765) Logged the problem at oracle support and the say I have to ovreride the default XML parser with other parser in OC4J.

Perhaps use newer versions of the XML jars? Yes, I also think this is Xalan related. An old version of xalan is often included with early versions of JDK 1.4.0, but also possibly with Oracle Application Server. Rather than simply searching the local disk for files named xalan*.*, look carefully at the class path in your servlet to see where the xalan classes are coming from. To output the classpath from a java program to std out do: System.out.println(System.getProperty(java.class.path)); Chris snip/ - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
NullPointerException at.org.apache.transformer.TransformerImpl.run
Hi,
I use a Struts Action doing what the
FopPrintServlet (from examples) does.
When I put projectteam.xml and projectteam2fo.xsl
(from examples too) into the querystring
as suggested, everything works fine.
But when I try to provide the projectteam.xml via a
JSP file that includes the content of projectteam.xml
I get a NullPointerException:

How to make XSL-FO repeatable for many XML docs having same format?
Right now I have a working application where I create XML file and then pass it through XSLT /FOP parser to create a PDF out of it. So everytime the user clicks a button he gets a PDF. What I want now is to combine multiple XML files into one XML file and then run this big XML file through the FOP parser to create one big PDF. This PDF would have pages equivalent for each individual PDF. Note that all the individual XMLs are validated by the same XSD.. Sorry if I have not made myself clear...I can explain in more detail if reqd... Thanks Manoj - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
