Re: Problem using FOP in IBMs J9 for CDC Personal Profile

2006-10-25 Thread Jeremias Maerki
Not sure, but I assume the CDC Personal Profile doesn't include Swing.
FOP hasn't been designed and maintained with the CDC in mind. If FOP
works at all on the Personal Profile you might need to consider writing
a replacement viewer that doesn't use Swing. Depending on your needs
there might be other possible solutions. I suspect FOP is generally a
little heavy for such devices. I don't know your requirements but maybe
you should consider rendering your FO documents on a server and transfer
bitmap images or PDFs to the client if that's an option.

  I'm trying to use FOP for rendering documents to awt-images for an

  To integrate FOP into my application I used some code parts of the AWT 
  viewer application and it works quite well with Suns J2SE 5.0 virtual 
  machine. Running the same application on the PDA results in a 
  NoClassDefFoundError for org.apache.fop.renderer.awt.AWTRenderer.
  
  As I'm pretty sure the classpath is set correct and is containing FOP 
  and the other libs needed (batik, avalon ...) and other FOP classes are 
  instanciated before (i.e. org.apache.fop.viewer.Translator) I don't see 
  where the problem might be.
  
  
  Did anyone managed to run FOP under IBMs J9 VM or has any idea what 
  might be the problem?
 
 Hmmm, maybe some code examples (copied from the example AWT viewer 
 application with my debug-outputs) to demonstrate the problem:
 
 [...]
translator = getResourceBundle(TRANSLATION_PATH + resources. + 
 language);
translator.setMissingEmphasized(false);
System.err.println(Class exists:  +  (translator instanceof 
 org.apache.fop.viewer.Translator));
renderer = new org.apache.fop.render.awt.AWTRenderer(translator);
System.err.println(Class exists:  +  (renderer instanceof 
 org.apache.fop.render.awt.AWTRenderer));
 [...]
 
 On SUNs VM the output is as expected
 
 Class exists: true
 Class exists: true
 
 on the IBM VM only the first println is reached, as the instantiation of 
 the AWTRenderer results in a NoClassDefFoundError.

Re: Table Border Help needed

2006-10-25 Thread Jeremias Maerki
It could very well be that there is no mistake. I'm fairly sure that the
problem goes away if you disable anti-aliasing in Acrobat Reader and
that the problem doesn't occur in print. Is that so?

If that's the case, you might be asking if there's a way to avoid that
effect. I don't think it's worth the effort but if the PDF renderer were
extended with some smart algorithm that can combine border elements to
larger combinations this effect could be avoided.

Very thanks, that was it. I've disabled the Acrobat anti-aliasing 
Smooth line art and now it works fine in the Reader.


But when i print the page the borders are like before... is there a 
Smooth line art setting in the Adobe Reader print settings? I can't 
find something like that.

Logging in FOP 0.9

2006-10-25 Thread ruchika thakur
Hello,I am using fop 0.9. I am not sure if in fop 0.9 i can get log messages while the pdf is being rendered, as we get in fop 0.2. In fop 0.2 i use to set driver.setLogger(log), to get the log messages. But how do i do it in 
fop0.9.Please suggest.Once i have set up say log4j and used commong-logging, but how would i give this logger to fop . Like in fop 0.5 we use to have the following code with driver.setLogger(loggger);
Driver driver = new Driver(foSource, l_baOutStream);driver.setLogger(loggger);driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);driver.run();Below are the log messages which i used to get in fop 0.2[INFO]: Using 
org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser as SAX2 Parser[INFO]: building formatting object tree[INFO]: setting up fonts[INFO]: [1][INFO]: [2][DEBUG]: Last page-sequence produced 2 pages.[INFO]: [3][INFO]: [4]
[INFO]: [5][INFO]: [6][INFO]: [7][INFO]: [8][DEBUG]: Last page-sequence produced 6 pages.[INFO]: Parsing of document complete, stopping renderer[DEBUG]: Initial heap size: 122162Kb[DEBUG]: Current heap size: 101839Kb
[DEBUG]: Total memory used: -20322Kb[DEBUG]: Memory use is indicative; no GC was performed[DEBUG]: These figures should not be used comparatively
But with fop 0.9, below is how pdf is being rendered. In this code how do i set logger so that fop messages are redirected to log4j
// configure foUserAgent as desiredFOUserAgent foUserAgent = fopFactory.newFOUserAgent();fopFactory.setStrictValidation(false); 
// Construct fop with desired output format Fop fop =fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF,foUserAgent,l_baOutStream);
// Setup JAXP using identity transformer TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer();
// Resulting SAX events (the generated FO) must be piped through to FOP Result res = new SAXResult(fop.getDefaultHandler()); 
// Start XSLT transformation and FOP processing transformer.transform(foSource, res);

Hmmm, Swing doesn't seem to be the problem as I wasn't going to use the

doesn't include java.awt.print.* which is extensively used in the 
rending part of FOP. PDF documents are no alternative for my needs, as I 
need to access and display the documents from within my application.


Right now I'm using bitmap images but I'm looking for a way to be more 
flexible (font size, colors, images ...) and to cut down the used 
bandwith for transfering the documents.


I guess I've got to look for something else (maybe a html renderer) or 
implement my own renderer for my documents.

background-image oversized

2006-10-25 Thread Tobias . Soloschenko

Hello,

I want to set a background-image in
the region-before. The image is a gif, 26,42 in width, 3,88 in height and
72 dpi.
I know that the useragent uses a dpi
of 72 as default value. When I render the pdf the image is bigger than
the content.
I thought that it would fit with that
size?!


   fo:layout-master-set

   
   fo:simple-page-master
margin=10mm
10mm 10mm 20mm page-height=297mm

  
   
   
 page-width=210mm
master-name=A4Page

   
   fo:region-before
background-image=url('C:\\...\headpicture.gif')
  
   
   
 background-repeat=no-repeat
extent=38mm
/

   
   fo:region-body
margin-top=39mm/

   
   /fo:simple-page-master

   /fo:layout-master-set

There are no compilation errors. I'm
using FOP 0.92 beta.

FOP 0.9x, line-height and svn..

2006-10-25 Thread Burman Michael
Hi,

Having a small problem to actually acquire FOP 0.93:

update -r HEAD D:/work/workspace/fop-trunk
RA layer request failed
svn: REPORT request failed on '/repos/asf/!svn/vcc/default'
svn: REPORT of '/repos/asf/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request
(http://svn.apache.org)

And it seems Gump is down as well, so I can't get nightlys either. But
that wasn't actually my main question, more of a problem is when I'm
trying to migrate software from FOP 0.20.5 to FOP 0.93 (which is
hopefully the first production-quality version).

It seems there's something weird with fonts and line-height. Everything
looks fine, but with equal line-height, FOP 0.92beta creates more
free-space around it. My tables are somewhat getting 'fat', since
line-height=12pt in 0.20.5 equals line-height=11pt in 0.92beta. Both
are running as 'pure', with no font-configurations or other settings.
Any idea how to adjust this? I have bunch of XSL-files to migrate, and
this is unfortunately serious slowdown, not to mention I have to remove
all 0.20.5 workarounds people have created ;)

Second, what really got me interested in 0.93 is what's said on some
mail, that's it noticeable faster than 0.92beta and fixes some bugs as
well. Perhaps above issue is a bug, I was hoping that ;)

I also noticed someone said 0.20.5 is faster than 0.9x, but I can't
confirm this, quite opposite. I've done some experimenting, since we
process thousand of documents daily, and noticed there's 50-100% speed
gain from 0.20.5 - 0.92beta. This is great news, and a reason enough
for me to migrate, but I'm always welcoming some more ;). Also I found
out that 0.92beta was faster than commercial applications (embedded).

So if anyone has ideas to make transition from 0.20 - 0.9x less
painful, thanks in advance ;)

browser hangs (recent trunk)...

2006-10-25 Thread Chris Markiewicz








Hello.



I am in the process of converting from 0.20.5 to a recent
trunk.



It now executes with throwing an exception, but I see
nothing in the browser. The browser just hangs after a few seconds (after
the FOP process completes).



Ive done some searching in the mailing list, etc 
and I found a few instances of this. But none of the resolutions (if
present) have helped. An excerpt of the code is below. The
System.out that I added shows a non-zero value, as expected. Ive
stripped the XSL doc down to pretty much nothing (just some text in a table) because
the original version had a lot on non-compliant stuff. 



This is exactly how I handled the output stream in the old
version of FOP and it worked perfectly. 



Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Chris
