RE: Converting FOP to HTML

2002-11-22 Thread Vladimir Sneblic
Thanks everyone for your feedback.

The reason I wanted to create HTML documents as well is simply because PDF 
documents don't allow you to copy/paste parts of them. That's why if I have an 
HTML representation as well I can copy-paste parts of the document from it. 
(hope this makes sense)

Thanks again,

Vlad

Using XSLT to convert the FOP documents to HTML would be your best bet. Because 
a large number of the presentation properties are taken from CSS it should be 
reasonably straight forward.

Is your primary intention to publish to print and you want the HTML version to 
resemble the printed version or is there any scope for flexibility in the 
presentation of the content?

Hi,

I have created a program that converts a set of FOP templates to PDF documents. 
Now I would like to enhance this program, and add the capability to also 
transform these templates into HTML pages. Can this be done?

I have checked the FOP website but HTML is not on the list of supported 
formats. Has anyone tried something like this before? 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Vlad

Hi Vladimir,
you can c'n paste from PDF! e.g. with Acrobat Reader 5.0 you can prevent 
c'n paste or allow it. you can set a password and so on. I am not sure 
whether you can tell fop to pass that properties? But I can c'n past my pdf!

King regards

The Cocoon HTML/PDF howto at
http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/howto/howto-html-pdf-publishing.html
might be a good starting point to get an overview of how HTML+PDF publishing 
works.
