RE: Page background color
I finally achieved the layout I wanted. Thank you for your help. I just needed to know a bit more about how the regions work. (I use PDF as the output format, and use points as units rather than pixels as I did in the example.) -Original Message- From: J.Pietschmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 8. januar 2005 21:04 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Page background color Dennis Myrén wrote: However, I started trying just to get the background color to be applied across all regions, and I have not succeeded. Please tell me what I am doing wrong with this simple document. Only the region-body region gets blue background color. Your region-before and -after have no extent, i.e. they get an extent of zero. You'll have to defione a region-start and -end as well. Which output format are you using? Measurements in px should not be used except for bitmapped output formats.

FOP 20.5 and Java 1.5
Title: FOP 20.5 and Java 1.5 I recently upgraded my system to Java 1.5 and I'm experiencing problems with generating pdfs using FOP. Some xsl:fo files, but not all, generate output that Acrobat chokes on. If I look at the raw PDF output, it is different. Other files produce output that renders fine. I haven't narrowed anything down yet, I thought I'd see if anyone else has tried FOP on Java 1.5? Dave

You are correct.

The block lies outside of the root. It is in a template. I start in root, write some generic stuff and than depending on the params jump of the one of several templates to write out the content. Each template needs to contains its own formatting schema. I was hoping to do this by embedding the content in a fo block. If this is allowed, do I have any other options? I would like to avoid complicating the root template with 13 different output options. I think you just need to define the fo namespace at the top of your xsl:stylesheet, e.g. xsl:stylesheet xmlns:fo=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format; xsl:template match=/ fo:root ... /fo:root /xsl:template ... /xsl:stylesheet snip/ Chris - 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]
Document Questions
Hello;
I am working on creating all the various layouts our product supports in FO.
Having some issues.
The code below runs when it is time to get the FO input:
!-- fo root: all document properties go inside this tag --
fo:root xmlns:fo=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format;
!-- configure the page attributes --
fo:layout-master-set
fo:simple-page-master master-name=simple page-height=29.7cm
page-width=21cm margin-top=1cm margin-bottom=2cm margin-left=2.5cm
margin-right=2.5cm
fo:region-body margin-top=3cm/
fo:region-before extent=3cm/
fo:region-after extent=1.5cm/
/fo:simple-page-master
/fo:layout-master-set
!-- ouput the content --
fo:page-sequence master-reference=simple
xsl:call-template name=s2_pdf /
/fo:page-sequence
/fo:root
Here is the template it calls:
xsl:template name=s2_pdf
fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-start
fo:block
IMG SRC={$spacepath} WIDTH=9 HEIGHT=1 /
/fo:block
/fo:flow
fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body
!-- text 1 --
fo:block font-family=Arial font-size=12pt font-weight=bold
break-after=auto space-after=10pt text-align=left
xsl:call-template name=text_display_and_edit
xsl:with-param name=text_number select=number('1') /
xsl:with-param name=text_firstname select=string('TEXT') /
xsl:with-param name=texttype select=string('norich') /
/xsl:call-template
/fo:block
!-- text 2 --
fo:block font-family=Arial font-size=12pt font-weight=normal
text-align=left
xsl:call-template name=text_display_and_edit
xsl:with-param name=text_number select=number('2') /
xsl:with-param name=text_firstname select=string('TEXT') /
xsl:with-param name=texttype select=string('norich') /
/xsl:call-template
/fo:block
/fo:flow
I have 2 problems.
1. With the image tag the way that it is, I get an error claiming the tag
needs an accompaning /img. This is confusing to me because the tag above
contains a /.
2. If I take the image tag out I get a message complaining about more than
one flow in a page sequence. How else can I write to different xsl: regions
of the same page? Should I just use tables for this?
Thanks,
Luke

Minor problem here: your body region overlaps region-after.
fo:table
fo:table-body
No fo:table-columns here. Bad. FOP 0.20.5 can't do table auto
layout.
Also, you should have got a warning about using a fixed table
layout. Look carefully.
xsl:with-param name=text_number select=number('1') /
Utterly redundant XPath type conversion.
xsl:with-param name=text_firstname select=string('TEXT') /
xsl:with-param name=texttype select=string('norich') /
More redundant XPath type conversions.

Re: Document Questions
Thanks. It was the missing column declarations. I don't know all of the
pieces of this system, I am guessing this was giving an error but somewhere
in the code that exception was being caught and not reported.
My issue now is getting the document to find the image source I want to use.
fo:block
fo:external-graphic src=url(hockey_canada0104.jpg)/
/fo:block
What path should I be putting before the image name? One from the tomcat bin
directory to the location of the image on the server? Right now the image
gets dumped in the same place the PDF is saved to.
Thanks for the help,
Luke
