RE: Render pdf via Servlet !
Hi Meena FOP does support PDF "bookmarks", using an extension to the "fo" namespace. I've used FOP (inside Cocoon) to produce a PDF document like this and it worked beautifully. For example, see the fo document at http://havana.reddfish.co.nz/cocoon/listserver/listserver.fo and the pdf version at http://havana.reddfish.co.nz/cocoon/listserver/listserver.pdf One easy mistake to watch out for: did you remember the namespace declaration for "fox"? For example, here's the start of my fo document. Note the root element contains a declaration for the "fox" namespace in addition to the usual "fo" namespace. Without this declaration, any "fox" elements are meaningless to FOP and would be ignored, I believe. http://xml.apache.org/fop/extensions"; xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";> About Ikakura Installation System Requirements etc. If you still have problems, show us a piece of code.

Re: Render pdf via Servlet !
Hi, I've got a query. I want to convert an xml file into a pdf file. Presently i'm using xslt to convert xml to fo file. Then use fop to convert it into pdf file. I want a bookmark session in the pdf file. The xsl file has something like But when I use fop, i'm not getting the bookmark part of it. Should I use anyother parser to generate the pdf with bookmark? Please help.

Yes , They work outside of the Servlet ! -Original Message- From: Max Dunn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 26, 2001 3:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Render pdf via Servlet ! The glossary files work here; FOP 0.20.1, the Xalan and Xerces versions that came with the FOP distribution. Does the transformation to FO and then PDF work outside of the servlet for you?

There is the classic bug for some versions of IE that if the URL doesn't end in ".pdf", IE won't recognize it as a PDF file. In that case, add a fake parameter like ?ielikes=.pdf to the url. Max
