Need immediate help.. FOP on Solaris Box

[Newkid]

Hi there!

Can any one let me know whether one can create an PDF file with the
following options:

a. Reading XML file from the stream, passing XSL which is stored in the
webdirectory and storing it in some other directory?

b. Reading XML from the database, passing XSL which is stored in the
webdirectory and output the pdf as a stream?

Please advice.

Would appreciate your response!

The network access is most likely for retrieving the SVG DTD.
You can either
1) Delete the DTD reference from the SVG, or try to produce
  the SVG without the DTD reference.
2) Use an entity resolver, a catalog and a local copy of the DTD
 http://xml.apache.org/commons/components/resolver/resolver-article.html

The FOP application should probably provide the latter out of the
box. If you have some time to spare you can send in a patch.

Hi,

I am running XML to PDF from a server. Everything works fine except when
I have a stylesheet that imports another. e.g.



I receive an error "can not compile stylesheet"

I suspect my problem is with the href path. Will the href path be
relative to the main stylesheet or the FOP.jar file?

Thanks

Re: Large PDF's files fail to stream correctly

[Daniel Appelt]

Hi Graeme,

in general, you do not know in advance how long the rendering with FOP
will take. For large files it is not unlikely that the browser times
out or finishes fetching the PDF file in an unfinished state.
A possible pseudo-streaming solution could be to let FOP save the file
on the server, and use a website with an AJAX script on the client
side that regularly checks the state of the file. If file size isn't
changing between two or more consecutive checks, it might be assumed
that FOP has finished rendering the file and you could redirect the
browser to the respective URL or show it as a link. Of course, this
might still be problematic with regards to security...

Cheers,
Daniel

Well, don't get too excited... When I say 'the element', that means  
no more than that FOP will recognize a fo:table-retrieve-marker as a  
valid FO (whereas currently, it would at least warn you about an  
'unknown formatting object'. It has no effect whatsoever on the  
output, yet.


Just thought I'd clarify.

Large PDF's files fail to stream correctly

[Woodhouse, Graeme]

Hello,

Hopefully someone on this list can help,

We've been having long standing problems here building dynamic PDF's and 
streaming the to the Adobe PDF reader plugin. We use an Apache/Tomcat (through 
AJP) to stream these files. Unfortunatly as the files reach 40-50 pages they 
become to become randomly garbled and the reader reports them as corrupt.

Has anyone here had the same problem?

One possible fix we have found is to save the file to the server and link 
directly to the file, then delete the file. But this leaves security 
vulnerabilities in the system and we would prefer to get the streaming right.

It would be great if someone could shed some light on this problem!

Thanks in advance :)

Re: fox:continued-label

[bonekrusher]

Thank you Kamal and Andreas,

I commend those that are working on the source code for the FOP project. I
am sure its no easy task. I would love to take this on, but my knowledge of
Java is limited at best. I've only been working with Java for a few months.

I might have a possible solution to table header markers, which I will try
out today. If it works, I will post the work-a-round solution.

As for Andreas comment "The element is already implemented in my local
sandbox," - Thats great news. I look foward to it in an up comming release.

Once again, Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Bones

Multi page pdf using fop-one page for each person tag

[Khan, Atique (IT)]

Hi All,
I need to convert my xml data using xsl-fo template into pdf using fop.
My XML data looks like

  

  Payment Company
  ABC UK Ltd
  1
  10


  Employee Name
  Mr A Lastname
  2
  10

...


...

.
.


My xsl template is as follows:

http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>





















































 PRIVATE AND
CONFIDENTIAL


























 Paydate 































 Employee Name 


















 Employee Number 


















 Payment Method 




















.
.
.



Each of the employee tags need to go into a separate page in the pdf.
When I am creating the pdf its writing on the first page only without
advancing to the next page. Can somebody please point out the mistake in
my xsl template.

Thanks
Atique

[ANN] New release of PDF image support for Apache FOP

[Jeremias Maerki]

I've just uploaded a new release (Version 1.2) of the PDF image support
plug-in for Apache FOP.

The plug-in allows to include existing PDF files using
fo:external-graphic and fox:external-document when generating PDF output.
It is published under the Apache License V2.0, just like Apache FOP.

For details on the plug-in, please read the README file in the
distribution.

Download from here:
http://www.jeremias-maerki.ch/development/fop/index.html

Changes since version 1.1a:
- Fixed handling of rotated pages (Thanks to Krister Wicksell)
- Fixed "PDFObject already has an object number" error occurring with
certain PDFs.
- Requires FOP 0.95beta or later


Enjoy,
