Article in JAVAWORLD.
I had written an article about publishing PDF docs on client side using FOP for JAVAWORLD magazine. The editors have approved it and has been published in the March 28 edition of Javaworld.Check the article at http://www.javaworld.com. Its right on the home page. The direct article link is http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-03-2005/jw-0328-xmlprinting.htmlI have acknowledged the help received from this forum in the CONCLUSION section just above the ABOUT THE AUTHOR section on page 2.Thanks again to all in this group.

How to adjust row width for overflowing text ?
Guys I have an issue where the text in a row is so long that it overflows to the next line and the top of the characters touch the lower part of the upper line. The 2 lines therefore appears squished. I have tried everything to set this right but nothing seems to be working..I have also tried the fo:inline line-height=16pt property but this doesnt work... anyone? Thanks Manoj PS: I have attached a screen shot of these squished lines in word attachment. Note the text Films of Brasil, Inc sliding under the top line.

To increase JVM memory, just change your FOP.bat or whatever script starts your Java VM and specify command line parameter -Xmx256M.

Why is FOP not finding userconfig.xml on server ?

Re: Why is FOP not finding userconfig.xml on server ?
Thanks for the reply.Last evening I did find the cause for this issue. I checked the source code and did found that FOP is initially loading standard configuration ( which is config.xml). I also found that the /cong/ directory is missing from the applet jar. But on my PC (localhost) the same directory /conf/ is present in the base directory where the applet gets loaded. So whats happening is when I access my local machine server the class loader doesnt find the /conf/config.xml file in the jar so it goes and tries to get it from the directory where the applet jar is loaded from.On my machine the /conf/ is present and FOP runs without exception.Now when I try to load the applet from the other server ( myserver which is a diff PC) FOP tries to do the same. It doesn find /conf/ in the applet jar so it tries to get it from the directory from where applet jar is present. This /conf/ directory is not present on the other PC and so it gives out an exceptionThis is what I assume is happening as I am to still test it out..ThanksManoj-"J.Pietschmann" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]From: "J.Pietschmann" [EMAIL PROTECTED]Date: 02/12/2005 11:40AMSubject: Re: Why is FOP not finding userconfig.xml on server ?[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: "myserver" is running on a completely different machine.

The XSL-FO specification provides some properties for this: white-space-collapse and linefeed-treatment. In FOP, use white-space-collapse=false on an enclosing block. Warning Due to a bug in current versions of FOP, setting white-space-collapse=false will also preserve line breaks in the text. Do not rely on this behavior, as it is non-conformant and will be changed. Cheers!

RE: Fonts in FOP
Nuno
So who is invoking FOP ? Dont you write code to invoice it somewhere in the
web application ?
I am using XSLTInputhandler explicitly in my servlet to do the xml to pdf
conversion and then render the pdf using acrobat. All this happens in the
servlet within the weblogic application server paradigm.
Right now I have hardcode the userconfig.xml file in the servlet as File
userConfigFile = new File(C:\\fop-0.20.5\\conf\\userconfig.xml); I need
to find a way to not hardcode it as its deployed as a jar file on
production server.

Hi Manoj,
Thanks for your help.
I really need to re-build fop.jar, because my web application uses it
standalone and I don't have code access.
I think I really should configure something in the build.xml of FOP.
Something like:
property name=ttfcomic.xml value=${build.codegen}/ttfcomic.xml/
I need to know, what and how do I need to configure?

Try to load your fonts without the userconfig.xml file and see if it works
(change were necessary):
//config fonts
Vector allFonts = new Vector();
Vector allTrips = new Vector();
//name weight style
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet(MS Song,normal,normal));
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet(MS Song,bold,normal));
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet(MS Song,normal,italic));
allTrips.add(new FontTriplet(MS Song,bold,italic));
FontInfo fontInfo = new FontInfo(MS
SONG,/fonts/mssong.xml,true,allTrips,/fonts/mssong.ttf);
allFonts.add(fontInfo);
Configuration.put(fonts, allFonts);
Then at least you will know if your font files are working.

I have setup the Kanji fonts on my machine and also can view Japanese text in my regular application with no problem. The problem is when the data gets converted to XML and then to PDF...Somewhere the data is getting messed up... I checked the XML file and the japanese fonts are present without any distortions.

Just a thought:
Did you set up the necessary font-metrics file? You can find an example
(called cid-fonts.fo) in the examples\fo\advanced (Windows) or

XSLTInputHandler questions
Folks
I am planning to use the following XSLTInputHandler constructor in an
applet downloaded on the client side. Before I use it I have the following
questions.
public XSLTInputHandler(File xmlfile, File xsltfile) throws FOPException
{ }
public XSLTInputHandler(String xmlURL, String xsltURL) throws
FOPException { }
public XSLTInputHandler(InputSource xmlSource, InputSource xsltSource)
throws FOPException { }
1) Would a URL constructor passed as string like
new XSLTInputHandler (new String(http://host:7011/web/myXML.xml;), new
String(http://host:7011/web/myXSL.xsl;))
work ?
2) I read on some websites that
org.apache.fop.apps.XSLTInputHandler(InputSource ,InputSource ) constructor
doesnt work for InputSource and can only be used for String and File
arguments? Have anyone made it work with InputSource arguments?
3) As the XSLTInputHandler is called on client side I want to read the XSL
and XML files from app server. How should I go about reading the XSL,XML
files from server? as inputstreams?
Thanks
Manoj

Acrobat reader 6.0 question.
I am creating many PDFs using XML/FOP and the resulting files are opened in one instance of acrobat reader. To print each PDF, I have to goto FILE PRINT for each document as acrobat prints only the active window at a time. Is there a way I can print all open docs in acrobat in one go?

Naming the PDF file generated.
I am creating files using XML/FOP and then rendering it as PDF. This is done within a servlet XXXServlet.java. Whats happening is that the PDFs are generated with names like XXXServlet[1].PDF , XXXServlet[2].PDF etc.. I want to give my own name to these PDF files...How do I do that?

FOP opening only 1 PDF when more than one is rendered?
I have a for loop which calls the XSLTHandler and then renderer in loop
till the input criteria is exhausted.
What happens is the acrobat reader opens only the last pdf file rendered...
My code looks like..whats happening is that only the last (10th ) invoice
is opening up in acrobat. I am running it under WEBLOGIC 7.0
for ( i = 0 to 10 invoices )
{
XSLTInputHandler input = new XSLTInputHandler(invoicexmlfile,new
File(xslParam));
renderXML( input, response);
}
public void renderXML(XSLTInputHandler input,
HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException
{
try {
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);
Driver driver = new Driver();
String OS = System.getProperty(os.name);
driver.setLogger(log);
driver.setErrorDump(true);
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.setOutputStream(out);
driver.render(input.getParser(), input.getInputSource());
byte[] content = out.toByteArray();
response.setContentLength(content.length);
response.getOutputStream().write(content);
response.getOutputStream().flush();
} catch (Exception ex) {
throw new ServletException(ex);
}

Re: FOP opening only 1 PDF when more than one is rendered?
I dont want them merged into 1 document. I want them separate but want the one instance of acrobat ( which opened the first invoice ) to take the other 9 documents created after the first one. Now what is happening is that the last document is opened in the acrobat reader where as the other 9 are lost.I have a feeling it has something to do with the response object. I think trying to use the same response/request object is causing the first 9 docs to be flushed out with the last one only remaining...on right track ?Thanks-Jebus [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]From: Jebus [EMAIL PROTECTED]Date: 09/15/2004 06:57PMSubject: Re: FOP opening only 1 PDF when more than one is rendered?whatyouaredoingiswriting10separatedocumentstotheoutputstream.Ifyouneedallthesedocumentstoshowupasone.youiTexttomergethemtogether.OnWed,15Sep200418:02:37-0700,[EMAIL PROTECTED][EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote:IhaveaforloopwhichcallstheXSLTHandlerandthenrendererinlooptilltheinputcriteriaisexhausted.Whathappensistheacrobatreaderopensonlythelastpdffilerendered...Mycodelookslike..whatshappeningisthatonlythelast(10th)invoiceisopeningupinacrobat.IamrunningitunderWEBLOGIC7.0for(i=0to10invoices){XSLTInputHandlerinput=newXSLTInputHandler(invoicexmlfile,newFile(xslParam));renderXML(input,response);}publicvoidrenderXML(XSLTInputHandlerinput,HttpServletResponseresponse)throwsServletException{try{ByteArrayOutputStreamout=newByteArrayOutputStream();response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);Driverdriver=newDriver();StringOS=System.getProperty("os.name");driver.setLogger(log);driver.setErrorDump(true);driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);driver.setOutputStream(out);driver.render(input.getParser(),input.getInputSource());byte[]content=out.toByteArray();response.setContentLength(content.length);response.getOutputStream().write(content);response.getOutputStream().flush();}catch(Exceptionex){thrownewServletException(ex);}ThanksManoj-Tounsubscribe,e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Foradditionalcommands,e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED]-Tounsubscribe,e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Foradditionalcommands,e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Can i get users default printers IP address?
I have users accessing PDF docs from my webserver ( weblogic). I am using the XML - PDF conversion using FOP. Is there a way I can read the users default printers IP address when he makes a request? That way I can somehow spool the PDF or PCL file directly to his printer. Thanks - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How to tell Driver to open acrobat in a new IE?
I am parsing my XML file through FOP parser and then telling the driver to
render it as PDF. The process is initiated by clicking on a button on IE.
What happens is the current IE instance opens the acrobat and displays the
PDF it.
The users have to hit back button to get back to the application.
My question is how do i tell the Driver to open the PDF in a separate
instance of acrobat (within a new IE instance) or just by acrobat
independently.
Thanks
Manoj
My sample code is below
public void renderXML(XSLTInputHandler input,
HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException
{
try {
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);
Driver driver = new Driver();
String OS = System.getProperty(os.name);
driver.setLogger(log);
driver.setErrorDump(true);
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.setOutputStream(out);
driver.render(input.getParser(), input.getInputSource());
byte[] content = out.toByteArray();
response.setContentLength(content.length);
response.getOutputStream().write(content);
response.getOutputStream().flush();
} catch (Exception ex) {
throw new ServletException(ex);
}
}

Re: XMLParser error with unicode characters in XML file.
Thanks for the reply. However this problem has nothing to do with data transfer as I am creating XML file on the fly. So if is installed on Unix file gets created on Unix and same for windows... My guess turned out right. On Unix you need to specify the encoding as 'UTF-8' ( case sensitive ) while on windows 'utf8' ( and for that matter 'UTF-8') works fine.. FYI Manoj J.Pietschmann [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] e cc: Subject: Re: XMLParser error with unicode characters in XML 07/08/2004 03:59 file.

It worked on windows 2000 pro which I am using. Does the utf8 string needs to be different on unix? The most likely problem is that the files got corrupted during transfer. 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.

I am getting a XML parsing error from weblogic.apache.xerces when I parse a XML document which contains accented characters. This is what I am doing 1) Some database columns have accented data for spanish,japanese etc languages like Nmero de identificao: and nmero de identificacin. 2) I am reading this data and creating a XML file using some processing and then writing the file on the disc using weblogic.xml.stream.XMLOutputStream flush() method. 3) Then I am using FOP to render this XML in PDF. In the rendering process the weblogic.apache.xerces.XMLparser gets called to parse the XML. Here the parser throws a org.xml.sax.SAXParserException ( An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xfa) was found in the element content of the document). I was under the impression that XMLParser should take care of the accented characters. When I open the XML file which I created in XML SPY I see box characters like cliente n de identificaci.
