Title: FOP printing using polish characters



Ihad the same problem last week and it's very easy as long as you 
have Polish TTF or PFM fonts. All you have to do is make FOP use them and embed 
them in result PDF. Have a look at http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html. It's all there. If you have TTFs, look at the "Adding additional TrueType" section. It's real 
easy.

Nice 
to hear someone out in the world uses Polish national characters.

Help! Code presentation

2002-04-12 Thread Michal Kwiatek
Hi there!

I need to include several pages of xml source code in my pdf document. I
want to use code indented by XML Spy. That is to say, my text contains
end-of-line and space characters which fop should preserve. I enclosed the
source code in  ![CDATA ]] markup. Although spaces are preserved,
end-of-lines dissapear. Is there a way to make fop preserve them? Or any
other way to present intended source code using fop?

Thanks in advance,
Michal Kwiatek



RE: Variables

You have to declare it by using something like:

xsl:variable name=default-font select='11pt'/

 Subject: Variables
 
 
 What is the best way to set variables in stylesheets?
 
 For example, instead of constantly specifying the color for 
 fo:block with a
 hex value, I would like to set a variable once and then reference 
 it in all
 included/imported stylesheets.
 
 i.e. fo:block color={$myfavoritecolor} /

one letter words

2002-04-10 Thread Michal Kwiatek
Hi!

Is there a way to prevent fop from breaking the line just after a one letter
word like English 'a'?
I'm really concerned about it, because in Polish we have plenty of them
('w','z', 'o', i' etc.) and it looks awful.

I tried using the 0xA0 unicode character (non-break space), but fop
misinterprets this one.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance,
Michal
