I don't think you can, because of applet sandbox
rules.  They just can't wander over to other machines,
including printers.  But I may be incorrect here.

 Should I use Driver.RENDER_PRINT / Driver.RENDER_PCL
 set in the fop driver
 renderer ? 

No, those are non-PDF devices.  One is Java2D, the
other is HP printer control language.


 and what content type should the response
 object return?

 PS: I have successfully use the FopPrinter example (
 FopPrintServlet ) to
 print pdfs on the app servers default printer but
 what I need is to be able
 to print on the clients default printer and not on
 servers printer.
 

This issue has come up in the past, and (I believe)
the normal suggestion is to change your requirements. 
Isn't it strange to go to a website and have something
automatically print out of your printer?

Re: XPath 2.0 XSLT 2.0

2004-10-21 Thread Jeremias Maerki
That's not true. FOP really doesn't care about XPath or XSLT. Maybe that
didn't come out well enough. All you have to find is a way to send
XSL-FO as SAX events to FOP's Driver class. How you do this (XSLT 1 or
XSLT 2 or by hand or whatever) is utterly irrevevant.

If you think that these tricks are unsuitable for a production
enviroment, that may be (though I don't think so), but it has nothing to
do with FOP.

Re: Printing PDF on the client default printer.

2004-10-21 Thread Vojko Kercan
Hi...I have exactly the same requirements. Where by this is not a
website, but some web application that should print something as fast as
it can and many times a day. If we manage not to reopen Acrobat Reader
each time, we save time for our users.

If you find any solution, please post it on the list.

Thanks,
Vojko

Hello,
   I am using XSL-fo and producing PDF output using FOP. 
   In the XSL:Fo, I have used fo:external-graphic src=C:\tiff\output.tif
   Like this I have used many tiff images in XSL:FO document. 
   Here I got the PDF file. But After creating the PDF. I am not able to delete
the output.tif using delete() command from JAVA program.

Please help me..
Sounds like the file is held open by the TIFF reader. Try to clear
the image cache before deleting the file.
