performance of PNG output vs PDF
I'm working on an application that creates labels. For PNG at 300 dpi, cpu usage is 2x higher than PDF output. The application can expect high volumes so performance is important. Is the relatively poor performance of image output normal? Is there a setting that can improve the png renderer performance? thanks

Unable to load font file due to NullPointerException?
Hi all Still having trouble loading custom fonts - this time with a different approach.

RE: Still having trouble loading fonts at runtime - suggestions?
Hi Bernard Thanks for that code - that's really helpful. However, from what I can tell (java isn't one of my main languages, I'm a Python dev) it seems as though it doesn't actually tell FOP to reload any fonts, but rather gathers a list of fonts and then asks `PropertiesManager` to set the fonts. I can't see a reference to `PropertiesManager` in the FOP docs; is that a class in your app, or am I missing something? Cheers, Phill Bernmeister wrote: Hi Phillip, I have written a desktop application which, on start up, refreshes a cache of fonts (using FOP code) and subsequently allows the user to refresh that cache by hitting a button (again, calls the same FOP code).

Still having trouble loading fonts at runtime - suggestions?
Hi All I'm still having trouble loading using fonts while my app is running. I can load fonts without issue when configuring them via the XML config, but unfortunately the fonts are provided by a 3rd party at runtime and I therefore need to find a way to load them via java. Here's my current process (not working): 1. create a new FOP instance 2. load a number of default settings from an XML file 3. override some of these settings (eg. resolution) based on certain preferences passed in at runtime then, specifically regarding fonts: 4. create a temporary directory to store the font(s) that the 3rd party is providing 5. write each font to the temp directory 6. pass the temp dir to FontManager.getFontBaseURL() 7. process the FO file However, even though the FontBaseURL is changed, the fonts aren't loaded/used during processing. Is there a way to tell FOP/the FontManager to refresh it's cache/search the new directory and load the fonts? Is there a better approach to this? -- Phillip B Oldham phillip.old...@gmail.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org

Re: Is it possible to load use a font at runtime?
Thanks Pascal. I need to keep the system running (FOP will be embedded), and the font will be chosen/added by the user, so it looks like I'll have to create a new config in memory and load it for each request. Would it be worth forking a thread for each run of FOP and loading the config/fonts locally to that thread? The docs say that FOP may not be completely thread safe... are there any techniques I can follow to reduce issues? Hi, FOP Fonts do not need to be installed on your system. You just need to pass fonts location to FOP. 1/ register all used font files in configuration file (see [1], more precisely register a particular font) 2/ depending on how you use fop (either command line or embedded in your app), provide your config file to FOP (see [2] or [3]) note that the font-base configuration option can be very usefull here, either directly set in config file, or using the fopFactory.setFontBaseURL() method (see [4]).

Jeremias, Your hopes were realised. On my first attempt I put, automatically, space-before.maximum and space-before.minimum. I took me a lot of fiddling around in the wrong places before I read this message again more carefully. Thanks, Peter I'd recommend space-before: fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body fo:blockHello World!/fo:block fo:block space-before.optimum=30cm space-before.minimum=0mmThis block is aligned at the bottom of the page!/fo:block /fo:flow You make the optimum space-before quite big but allow it to shrink. The layout algorithm will do the rest. Unfortunately, using percentages in block-progression-direction doesn't work reliably, yet (as you noticed). So you can't specify space-before.optimum=100%. The spec also says: Percentages: N/A (Differs from margin-bottom in CSS). Just use a big absolute length. Furthermore, there are the display-align extensions proposed by Luca Furini a few years ago. But I don't think this works anymore because we don't test for it.

fop.jar, Service-registration mechanism, one-jar problem
Hi there, I maintain a sort of release notes application, that is capable of exporting release notes information to various formats. I tried to add FOP-support to it and failed. I'm limited to one-jar solutions, I'm not allowed to refer to any sort of external package. That's why I use a huge jar containing all the neat stuff, including FOP. Now FOP does a funny thing with renderer-registration and I don't see the use for it. Instead of doing a sort of init process like: - create map - register internal classes with MIMEs - handover map to plugin concept you do something like read entries from file fop.jar and register if instance of some sort of abstract renderer. I don't have no fop.jar and it starts, but as soon as I transform something it fails to load the MIME-relevant renderer classes. Makes no sense to me, because I've packed them into the app's jar...they're definitely available. I also tried to register the renderers on my own (RendererMakers), but this causes some weird class cast exceptions with TransformerFactory (I assume somebody casts something into a non-SAX-special class, while I switched to SAX-implementation via System.properties). So how to get rid of this problem while relying on FOP and using it as part of a all-in-one-jar?

Given the recent comments about how problems with XSL processing were Sun's fault, I thought it appropriate to forward this. Peter Original Message Subject: [Issue 66563] XMLUtil.write produces incorrect namespaces when using Xalan on JDK 1.5 Date: 1 Jun 2006 22:03:52 - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=66563 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jun 1 22:03:49 + 2006 --- brianminchau: the NetBeans product doesn't bundle Xalan at all. We use the version shipped with the JDK, which as far as I know doesn't have this problem in the Sun distribution. (Perhaps due to usage of XSLTC?) The problem arose with people bundling their own versions of Xalan with add-on modules, in which case the rest of the IDE would pick up the bundled Xalan instead of using the JDK's version. There is already a workaround in NetBeans which deals with this case (forcing the JAXP impl of XSLT to be used) provided that the JAXP version does not contain the bug. However see issue #70130. It seems that the IBM JDK 1.5.0 bundles a version of Xalan which does suffer from XALANJ-2219. For that reason, NB currently won't run on this JDK, as it has no working XSLT processor available and serialization of namespaced XML is critical for the project system to work. If a fix for XALANJ-2219 could be put into an update to the IBM JDK that would be great. The NB code already autodetects whether the JDK's Xalan has a fix for XALANJ-2219 or not (by testing its runtime behavior), so NB 5.0 ought to begin working unmodified on a patched IBM JDK.

For example an index at the end of the document does not know, which page explains «Barcode» and all links will show a question mark. That's not correct. RTF has support for page number citations. You should take a lot at the RTF specification and create an RTF file in MS Word with references so you see how this should be implemented. If someone has a reliable resource, let me know. I don't own any Micros~1 component and took OpenOffice-documents. They contain fields like MS-Office, but page numbers are hard coded. (tried cross referencing and TOC-mechanism) I thought about that last night (while cruising through the PDF-renderer to compare my table width «guessing» with the already implemented one) and draw the following conclusion: Fact 1: RTF knows page breaks Wrong. RTF can contain hard page breaks but doesn't have to. That's what I say: «knows page breaks» (and it's obvious, that I mean Insert-Page break-«Manual page break») Fact 2: RTF is page-oriented Wrong. RTF is a flow-oriented format. Microsoft Word is responsible for the page break decisions unless you add hard page breaks. Same intention, other words. Mkay, it's a «stream» of format attributes, but it's intended to render to pages, therefore you may insert a page break. If it would be a drawing program, intended to render to large sheets of paper to stick to walls, it would not include page breaking. Depends on point of view. (You may set the page size to any value one may think of, mkay, but that's not the point. Another example would be an index or cross reference with the page number appended) Fact 3: RTF aligns elements absolute Yes. Fact 4: RTF does not know anything about the document's structuring Depends on what you mean by structure. RTF supports styles which allow some kind of structuring. Telling a block of text to be Arial, 22pt, underlined and bold is not structure, but formatting. You may assume that this is heading level 1 but it could also be a capitalized letter or dadaistic poem. What I mean with structure is something like: h1May there be light/h2, so it's a heading, nothing else (I exclude mistakenly used tags by HTML-beginners). Conclusion: RTF differs not that much from PDF-rendering (only written tokens are a bit different) - Use the PDF-layout management system and add a RTF-writer. So RTF would look exactly like all PDFs. And there's only a slight difference from Office-generated RTFs: page breaks after every page. That would defeat the purpose of the current RTF output support. The clue is that you can edit the generated file and then print it. If you predefine the page breaks you make the editing a lot harder for the end-user. If you don't need RTF editing, then don't generate RTF because PDF offers much better quality. And that's what I wanted to read: There's no need for all that TOC-ing, page number citation and whatsoever. Therefore also indenting makes no sense, esp. when nesting blocks, tables and lists. Mkay, there should be a small amount of space between a list item and it's bullet, but for editing you don't need any formatting attributes - what makes it a lot easier. What's exactly the problem with graphics? We've got pretty good support for many cases, even SVG now. I was only talking about the current RTF export. AFAIK GIFs are not rendered (there was an annoying exception string inside the document). GIF: The LZW patents are expired but still it's a good idea to forget GIF. The legal side is still less than clear. But PDF «understands» GIFs, so I can use them. Should be the same with RTF, and the only thing I'll do is reading them and transform into a RTF-compatible format...if it's not legal I won't do this... PDF doesn't understand GIFs. Images are converted from GIF to a generic bitmap format supported by PDF. In the case of RTF output this code hasn't been written, yet. Patches welcome. That's what I wanted to hear, too.

fo:instream-foreign-object does not work with svg:rects and Barcode4j+FOP cut off barcodes
Hi there, I've tried to render barcodes into pdf documents by using fop 0.20.5, fo:instream-foreign-object and barcode4j (release from 2004). It works fine if I paste the barcode4j-output into the fo-document. When using the extension (barcode-tags inside instream-foreign-object) the barcode gets chopped of (12 characters, 7 or 8 are shown). So I could work around this by inserting the svg into the foreign-object-tag. It gets really weird if I upgrade from 0.20.5 to 0.91 or 0.92. In this case batik complains about missing width-attributes from svg:rect-tags, but they're definitely there (just took the same snippet as with 0.20.5). So I took an example from the homepage (http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/dev/fo/embedding.fo) and the same error message occurs (instead of the funky tiger *g*). Any suggestions, sollutions, recommendations? (To be honest: I did not browse the archive and think nobody ran over this problem, due to the barcode-news and the missing Jan2006-release and the unparsable examples.)

RTF, nested tables, context enhancement - status
Hi there, I was quite busy with other tasks and followed the mailing list only if there were RTF-questions. I'm still working on that RTF-thingy, to get it working again (local *g*) and there'll be some major changes and serious limitations. Page numbering, linking and tables for layout won't work for fancy formatting. I assume, that RTF is not the most important part of FOP and only for post processing with Micros~1-tools. If there are other opinions, let me know, before planning major changes. Basically RTF is a bastard between outlining and streaming format, that's why some neet features cannot be done (page-number-citation, pages are rendered in the viewer, not in the document) and I'll remove that code (additional warning-option can be switched on). Nested tables (and graphics) are definitely hard work. All graphics will be embedded bitmaps (it should be possible to convert GIFs, any copyright issues? I won't write GIF images but convert them like PNG-files) and maybe there's an refer-option, I'll have to find out, if RTF supports referenced images (another additional parameter). Nested tables will be a quite dirty hack. RTF does not support nested tables and there must be a transformation from nested tables to a table with additional columns. Another interesting fact is RTF's limitation to fixed widths, no proportional widths are allowed. Here I'll have to insert some code (maybe some remember the nested PercentageContexts) which basically does the same as PDF's LayoutManager (talked about more abstract PercentageContext being able to have a parent to be able to calculate remaing width, indenting and margins up to this context). I also found some comments like «maybe configurable?» with some Office-version-dependant corrections. I'll add some more configuration parameters for RTF rendering. I dunno when this will be finished and in status «testing», but end of June is quite realistic. So there's no necessity to branch anything (and merge again). And I won't commit it to the repository but forward it as tar.gz to others who want to test it (kinda review). -- freenet.de sucht den schlauesten Landkreis Deutschlands.

precision with these large numbers.
It's a problem with the limit of the precision of doubles, methinks. OP,
if you need this level of precision, you can either use
java.math.BigDecimal, if you really insist on courting trouble, or do
what everyone *should* do with currency - represent it as a long in the
smallest unit of the currency; in this case, one hundredth of a rupiah,
whatever that is. Using floating point numbers to represent currency is
fairly common, but nonetheless ridiculous for being common.

Left and top border treated differently
I asked about this as a side question in another thread but got no reply, so I'm asking again: When I put a block-container to absolute-position=absolute left=0mm top=0mm and give it a border, then the left border is outside of the page area whereas the top border is inside of the page area. I'm surprised that they are treated differently. I'd have expected either both borders on the page or off the page.

I haven't checked the FO specs on whether the borders are supposed to be drawn outside or inside the coordinates left/top/width/height, but I would have expected left and top border to behave the same, so that for a block-container located at 0,0 I would either see left and top or neither border.

IE: the total invoice value and summary notes should be placed 1 from the bottom of the page. What's happening now is that the footer is getting printed whever the table leaves off. The footer is static content defined for every page of a page flow (as well as the header is). So if you include some value into the footer, it will occur on every page of the flow, containing your table. Maybe the table is 3 pages long, which leads to the total sum being displayed on page 1, 2 and 3 - right!? If I'm right, you can't do this with footer (static content) and have to track the table's end. The best way to do this, is to insert an invisible footnote into the last column (or below it, if footnotes inside tables won't work). Now all you have to do is to format your footnote rendering the way you prefer it. This ensures, that the footnotes content will be rendered at the bottom of the last page (if included inside the last table row or underneath it). Is there any way to force it so that the table fills to a certain size on each page? I've thought about padding with table-rows but I can't figure out how many I need to add because of variable text lengths that wrap previous row sizes. This is not your task, this is FOP's job *g*. I'm thinking about another way... Any advice on how to handle this? When paging through invoices people would like to have the location of table footer in the same location. Mkay, another way would be to split up the table into fixed sized chunks. If you know, that the maximum length of a table needs 25 table rows, you could split after every 25 lines, format your footer the way you like it (as static content) and stuff every table into it's own page flow. Both sollutions are not very fancy, but they'll do it... - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Re: RTF and table/column widths
I had a closer look at the RTF results and I found two basic problems: 1. If the table has a indent of 0, the RTF-table does not copy this attribute (il0) to every table row (trowd). From the table cell's point of view it's row does not have an indent, so it does not look at the table's parameter. Therefore indenting any paragraph wrapping the table causes all the cells to inherit this indenting. So all the cell's content is not displayed at the left border, only shifted right by it's padding, but by the preceeding paragraph's indent. Just insert a il0 (or il+cell.getIndent(RTFWidthContext) after trowd and it resets the indent. 2. When creating an index, all the index terms are listed but neither their page numbers occurs, nor is the link right (but there's a link). If there's enough time I could fix the deferred references, too... (A less important fact is, that list bullets are not rendered properly, I had a question mark instead of a bullet. Somewhere I have the sample code for rendering fancy bullets to RTF...) The other problem I described in the last mail (including pictures causes PercentageContext-Exception everytime) was a docbook related problem. If in docbook a table (yes, table ... wrong conclusion) column has the proportional width 1 this value is not rendered to the FO-document. Due to this little optimization the column's width is auto by default. (This default auto caused the problem, 'cause replaced only visible column width definitions.) Tomorrow I'll deliver the promised perl scripts a shell wrapper. With these little gadgets I could transform every FO to RTF, only problem 2. remains. I'll also post some RTF results for illustration. If you like it, I'll start coding into the RTF export classes. BTW, why doesn't RTF support GIFs? PDF does so and I see no difference, according to licenses. Nevertheless the RTF export is pretty cool, if you write the FO a bit more careful. Jetzt Handykosten senken mit klarmobil - 14 Ct./Min.!

I've created larger Document (39 pages PDF result) with hardcore referencing (index terms, toc for headings, tables, lists and images) and 0.91 is twice as slow as 0.20.

Re: break-after page
- original Nachricht Betreff: break-after page Gesendet: Mi 22 Feb 2006 22:31:41 CET Von: Will Peterson[EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm using the FOP 0.91beta. Whenever I use the break-after=page in a block, any document after that point does NOT get rendered after that point. It inserts the page break and then the rest is gone. If I render to RTF, the page break is not a problem (but does not appear to be inserted) For example the following line would cause any XSL below it to be ignored. fo:block xmlns:fo=http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format; break-after=page/ Any ideas on what is going on here? Thanks. I confirm, this happens with every block until the next fo:page-sequence. See: http://krachlattenpaul.homelinux.org/fop/simple90_break.fo.xml (line 1192) and the resulting PDF: http://krachlattenpaul.homelinux.org/fop/simple90_break.pdf (on page 4 the code sample is missing) http://krachlattenpaul.homelinux.org/fop/simple90.pdf (here the code sample is present) Maybe opening a fo:page-sequence instead of breaking with the block works around this (the chapters in the sample documents start on new pages). --- original Nachricht Ende 1 Million Singles in Ihrer Nahe.

Just use a tool like Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw or even Inkscape to create the SVG with a rounded rectangle. The only problem is that you need to know the exact size of the rectangle beforehand as you can't scale background images. Some manual tweaking of the SVG might even get you some more flexibility so that you could simply reuse the SVG by only having to adjust the size of the image. On 09.12.2005 11:03:52 Peter B.

I´ve donwloaded the last two versions by now, which are: fop_20051021104642.tar.gz fop_20051021043611.tar.gz But when I build them up and try to use them, I get an error like this, more or less: No element mapping definition found for fox:outline I think (in my ignorance), this could be either because automatic-snapshots are not always working-products, or because I´m doing something wrong, although build-process seems to finish ok. Why I´m looking for a newer version than 0.20.5 is because I can use background-image, and some other properties seem to be already implemented, as seen here: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/compliance.html#fo-object-section Any comments are welcome.

Now I´m getting another error wich has got something to do fo:static content asking for one or more block entries. I mean, what to do If I´d like to use fop´s latest snapshot + docbook as a tool-chain? Anywhere form where to get info about this specific issue? Also, Jeremias said the actual snapshot is broken due to long path names in this case, where can I find info on whether the actual snapshot is actually broken or not (and where), so I sync of all this and handle it and work always with latest versions? Kind Regards, --- Jeremias Maerki [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: The snapshots are currently broken due to long path names. But that's not the problem you're experiencing. The problem is that fox:outline [1] is not implemented in FOP Trunk anymore. It has been superseded by the new bookmark elements from XSL-FO 1.1 [2]. I wonder if we should add fox:outline again for backwards compatibility. Hmm. A little request: Please put a descriptive text in the subject line next time. Thanks.

I´ve been trying to get the trunk version of fop, from here: http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/fop/ I´ve set up ant, and the last version of java sdk/jre. I´ve donwloaded the last two versions by now, which are: fop_20051021104642.tar.gz fop_20051021043611.tar.gz But when I build them up and try to use them, I get an error like this, more or less: No element mapping definition found for fox:outline I think (in my ignorance), this could be either because automatic-snapshots are not always working-products, or because I´m doing something wrong, although build-process seems to finish ok. Why I´m looking for a newer version than 0.20.5 is because I can use background-image, and some other properties seem to be already implemented, as seen here: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/compliance.html#fo-object-section Any comments are welcome.
