Re: using FOP to convert RTF to FO
Hello, in fact, I would like to convert any RTF file (with embedded pictures for example) in FO file, then take them and merge them into one FO, then rework FO to add some text for example, and print it into PDF through FOP. Do you know any other free way to do this please ? I currently look at iText, but nothing until now... thanks for your help regards, Sareth -- View this message in context: http://apache-fop.1065347.n5.nabble.com/using-FOP-to-convert-RTF-to-FO-tp37464p37466.html Sent from the FOP - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org
Re: using FOP to convert RTF to FO
Hi Sareth, Are you sure you want to convert the RTF to DocBook, then to FO, then to PDF? To me, this would make sense only if you're planning to make changes to the combined file later on. If this is supposed to be a one-time conversion with no future edits of the docs, however, I'd suggest to open all the RTF in Libre Office (or any other office suite), make the necessary edits in Libre Office, and export the RTF to PDF with the built-in converter.

Re: using FOP to convert RTF to FO
Hi Sareth, I tell me why you must use RTF as format? Is it possible for you to use .doc or .docx format. With this format you can benefit with docx4j or Apache POI project. docx4j provides utilities to merge several docx and convert it to PDF with FOP. Apache POI provides doc 2 PDF converter with FOP. It exists too a docx 2 PDF converter based on iText and Apache POI. I think if you use docx format you will benefit with a lot of features (with docx4j or Apache POI).

Re: using FOP to convert RTF to FO
Hi Sareth, OpenOffice can also be automated to convert RTF unattended to PDF which can then be embedded into a FO document using FOP external graphics. If you need to make changes to the RTF you could also convert RTF to doc using OpenOffice and process the doc files. As was pointed out in a reply there are solutions using doc as a basis. There is also a download from Microsoft to convert WordprocessingML to XSL:FO. Using OpenOffice you could also convert to HTML and convert that to XSL:FO e.g. by using HTML2FO … Kind regards Maruan Sahyoun
Changing 1.0 - 1.1 : Is there a cache file
I presume this is to be expected, but I'd appreciate it if someone would confirm it is correct. I've been using fop 1.0 for a while and I've just tried running 1.1. I find that the first time I run 1.1 I get a lot of font related diagnostic (INFO) messages. Subsequent runs don't do this, just giving a few messages. Then when I go back to 1.0 I get the same effect. Ie the first time I get lots of messages and subsequent ones don't. Is there a cache of some sort being created on the first run that would explain this ? Uncertainly Richard.

Re: Changing 1.0 - 1.1 : Is there a cache file
Correct. There is a font cache at ~/.fop/fop-fonts.cache. When changing versions, the serialized cache format can change (as it did between fop 1.0 and 1.1), which causes the cache to be rebuilt.
