Re: AFP special characters from Windows TTF fonts
Hey Rob, It's generally best practice to ask fop-specific questions the fop-users mailing list, that way you'll get much better support by the community at large rather than a single person. As to your question, honestly I've barely worked on AFP or FOP for that matter in a while and wouldn't be confident answering your question. Maybe one of the other guys can help?

Re: Need help to get Arabic working with FOP
Hi Bernardo, By the looks of the exception you've got an error in the FO you're creating, which probably has nothing to do with Arabic support.

Re: Need help to get Arabic working with FOP
Ahh yeah, that doesn't mean it doesn't work though. You can reference fonts [1], but you'll need them installed if you want to view them. Alternatively you could either 1) buy the license or 2) uhm *cough* change the bit flag which tells Fop the font is not embeddable [2] *cough*... Woahh that was an informative cough! Obviously any changes you make to the font are ill advised in a commercial setting, but may help you test the font before purchasing it.

Re: FOP 1.1 out of memory
Hi Stefan, Thanks for your support, people have worked hard to give you that warm fuzzy feeling, so it's nice to know that work is appreciated. As for your FO, you need to provide a little more information: 1) Tables in the FO tend to consume quite a lot of memory, especially when they span multiple pages, are you using them for laying out the documents? 2) Fonts take up more room than they really should; are you using custom fonts? Are you embedding fonts? Those are the usual culprits that come to mind (though others may wish to add to them), if you can upload the FO, then someone will take a look at it.

Re: SVG text misplaced
While you may be right Pascal, I'm sure this isn't a good example of a legitimate use-case. But then what do we use? A long? Then what have we really done? Realistically we're just moving the boundaries from which FOP accurately displays text/images etc.. What I'm asking is why would a long be any more appropriate than an int? This use-case is not a legitimate use-case in my belief. I appreciate Matthias, you said that Corel Draw (I didn't even know that was still going) was used to create it, but there must be some settings in Corel Draw to decrease the canvas or similar. The image is being drawn on a ludicrously large canvas and then scaled down... If your concern is the rounding issue, I'm not sure there's necessarily an easy solution. Though PostScript and PDF support decimal numbers, some formats e.g. AFP don't have a native concept of floating-point numbers. But that's a whole 'nother can of worms. I've made my thoughts on the issues with FOP's cavalier attitude towards rounding in AFP clear previously in a bug report.

Re: SVG text misplaced
Hi Matthias, I've just taken a quick look at this and I'm not really sure what you're attempting to do here.

Re: SVG text misplaced
Ok... This one's a tricksy little badger. Basically, because you're using a font-size that's so large (especially when you convert pts - mpts as FOP works in) we're basically seeing an integer-overflow issue: 2579 pts = 2579000 mpts 833mpts = width of M glyph in Helvetica In Java (read: 32-bit integers), try 2579000 * 833, the result is -2146660296, it should be 2148307000. This means when FOP attempts to draw the glyphs with the appropriate kerning, an erroneous value is being given as the glyph-width of the M character. I'm not really sure if this is a bug, there's always going to be a limitation on the size of the document FOP can produce because we have to work with integers that can overflow, if that limitation is 2147483648 / 1000 / 72 inches (or 29826 inches), I think we have enough scope there to feel assured that we're within the bounds of reasonable use. If you need any help changing your document to be a bit more FOP-friendly, please feel free to ask any further questions and I/we will try and help as much as we can.

Hi Matthias,
Don't be so quick to thank us for this work, you may retract
that once you start using it ;).
1. Good question. The way it works is that you give the
FopFactory (either in a constructor or via the
EnvironmentProfile) a base-URI, this will become the default
base URI should a font-base not be given.
2. Yes, you can use a relative URI and it resolves against the
default base URI described in 1). What I've tried to do is make
all URIs resolve to against single base URI that is given in the
constructor of the FopFactory. Interestingly though, I just
noticed something we didn't consider. What if the URI given to
the FopFactory isn't an absolute URI? We don't check at any
point to ensure it is absolute... I think it would resolve
against new URI(.) where-ever that may be. Maybe we want
throw an IllegalArgumentException? I don't know.
3. There is some documentation as to how to do this, though I
think we could have probably done better in publishing more
detailed explanation as to what we've done here. So we have
created a mechanism for handling URI schemes, since it's an
integral part of the URI spec, and it's almost the raison
d'etre. Look at the o.a.f.apps.io.**ResourceResolverFactory and
its unit test (o.a.f.apps.io.**ResourceResolverFactoryTestCas**e)
the static inner class
**TestCreateSchemaAwareResourceR**esolverBuilderHelper (say
that
quickly 20 times) does what you're looking for.
Essentially do the following:
ResourceResolverFactory.**SchemaAwareResourceResolverBui**lder
builder =
ResourceResolverFactory.**createSchemaAwareResourceResol**
verBuilder(DEFAULT
RESOLVER);
builder.**registerResourceResolverForSch**ema(SCHEMA, RESOLVER
GIVEN SCEHMA);
... // you can add any number of schemas with their
corresponding resolvers
ResourceResolver resolver = builder.build();
// resolver is then used as the resolver given to either the
FopFactoryBuilder or FopConfParser, either directly or via the
EnvironmentProfile.
I'd play around with this mechanism, it can be very powerful
once you play around with URIs. You can define the the font-base
as font:// and use font as the schema and thus have much
finer control as to where the fonts are. This brings the full
power of the URI spec to all resource acquisition. All you have
to do is implement the ResourceResolver interface.
Also, an FYI for you and anyone else that uses FOP in systems
that require fine-grained control over I/O and file access; you
can now control where FOP writes/reads from temporary files
(scratch files used to save on memory.) By implementing the
o.a.f.apps.io.**TempResourceResolver, you can mitigate any
security risks from leaking information or any worries one may
have. (Though realistically, the way FOP uses scratch files,
that's not very likely, but it's always better safe than sorry.)
I hope all that makes sense, if not, please feel

What I've tried to do is make all URIs resolve to against single base URI that is given in the constructor of the FopFactory. Interestingly though, I just noticed something we didn't consider. What if the URI given to the FopFactory isn't an absolute URI? We don't check at any point to ensure it is absolute... I think it would resolve against new URI(.) where-ever that may be. Maybe we want throw an IllegalArgumentException? I don't know. 3. There is some documentation as to how to do this, though I think we could have probably done better in publishing more detailed explanation as to what we've done here. So we have created a mechanism for handling URI schemes, since it's an integral part of the URI spec, and it's almost the raison d'etre. Look at the o.a.f.apps.io.ResourceResolverFactory and its unit test (o.a.f.apps.io.ResourceResolverFactoryTestCase) the static inner class TestCreateSchemaAwareResourceResolverBuilderHelper (say that quickly 20 times) does what you're looking for. Essentially do the following: ResourceResolverFactory.SchemaAwareResourceResolverBuilder builder = ResourceResolverFactory.createSchemaAwareResourceResolverBuilder(DEFAULT RESOLVER); builder.registerResourceResolverForSchema(SCHEMA, RESOLVER GIVEN SCEHMA); ... // you can add any number of schemas with their corresponding resolvers ResourceResolver resolver = builder.build(); // resolver is then used as the resolver given to either the FopFactoryBuilder or FopConfParser, either directly or via the EnvironmentProfile. I'd play around with this mechanism, it can be very powerful once you play around with URIs. You can define the the font-base as font:// and use font as the schema and thus have much finer control as to where the fonts are. This brings the full power of the URI spec to all resource acquisition. All you have to do is implement the ResourceResolver interface. Also, an FYI for you and anyone else that uses FOP in systems that require fine-grained control over I/O and file access; you can now control where FOP writes/reads from temporary files (scratch files used to save on memory.) By implementing the o.a.f.apps.io.TempResourceResolver, you can mitigate any security risks from leaking information or any worries one may have. (Though realistically, the way FOP uses scratch files, that's not very likely, but it's always better safe than sorry.) I hope all that makes sense, if not, please feel free to ask me to clarify.

Hi Matthias, I've added some javadocs that may help to enlighten devs about how to do some of the URI schema features you were asking about.

Re: Upgrade to fop trunk and URI resolving
I appreciate that there are inconveniences, but if you're just looking for backwards compatibility, the changes should be, for the most part, fairly minor. I'm sorry we haven't been able to convince you of the benefits of the changes, that's on me as the lead on this. I'm not sure really what else I can do to convince you, if you have specific concerns that we could address then I'd be happy to see if we can come to some sort of compromise. You talk about a java.xml.transform.URIResolver interface, are there any other things you'd like to see? On 26 July 2012 17:15, Jeremias Maerki d...@jeremias-maerki.ch wrote: That's not quite true. That worked perfectly before by setting your own JAXP URIResolver. You could even resolve a URI to a DOMSource (or SAXSource) containing an SVG image that you've dynamically built based on some data (think charts). With the new approach, you have to serialize that XML to a stream (buffered in memory or on disk) which costs performance. Not a very common use case, I know, but we're talking possibilities that are going away with the API changes. Previously, you could use Apache XML Commons Resolver for XML catalog functionality. Now you probably have to write an adapter from URIResolver to ResourceResolver (haven't had time to try that, yet). A convenience adapter is missing.

Hi Matthias, The way we've implemented the interface, you can be completely in control of how HTTP is authenticated by implementing o.a.f.apps.io.ResourceResolver[1] and giving it to the FopFactoryBuilder/FopConfParser[2].

Well, it seems like an abuse of encapsulation to allow users to set the font-base-URI directly onto the FontManager. Users shouldn't need to care about these internal mechanisms, they should be able to just configure it and it works. So we decided to enforce a single parameter to set the font-base (font-base in the fop-conf) because th only reason someone would want to define a font-base-URI would be if they had custom fonts setup, and in order to do so they'd need a fop-conf anyways. So we might as well enforce a single point of entry for the font-base-URI, otherwise you'll have to do if (x != null) checks all over the place and how would you decide which parameter overrides which? Why should a programmatically set font-base override the one found in the font-base? How do we document this so that users it's abundantly obvious to users? We asked ourselves is there a use case for setting this programmatically rather than through the fop-conf? We couldn't see why anyone would want to do that. We have tried to reduce the number of entry points for injecting configuration parameters, for two reasons; 1) because it wasn't documented and certainly wasn't obvious which parameters overrode which, when two of the same config parameters were used; 2) for the sake of developers, so that once the FopFactory hand been created, its state is mostly immutable (it has mutable members) and we can make certain assertions on the immutability of the members.

Re: Fonts not found in Red Hat Linux
Hi Roberto, RHEL has quite expansive documentation[1] and I'd suggest looking there and Google should cover most of your questions. The synaptic manager is an Ubuntu (maybe Debian) application for managing apt (the package installation manager), RHEL's apt-equivalent is Yum, though I don't know whether it has an equivalent GUI (synaptic manager). Depending on what you're trying to do, I'd suggest (especially if you're using custom fonts) you configure those fonts manually[2] rather than using auto-detect, it'll probably save you some hassle later down the line. Configuring the fonts manually gives you much better control over the fonts/font-names and makes debugging and font related issues much easier.

Re: Fonts not found in Red Hat Linux
Sorry, I should also point out that typing the command fc-cache -v should give you a list of where fonts exist on the system (I don't have a RHEL system to try it on, but I'm pretty sure this works across linux.)

Re: Setting encryption options on foUserAgent
Hi Jonathan, You can get the render options (FOUserAgent.getRenderOptions()) and set the encryption parameters by putting an instance of o.a.f.pdf.PDFEncryptionParams in there as such: userAgent.put(encryption-params, new PDFEncryptionParams()); I appreciate none of this is very obvious, but you can see how it's done when FOP is invoked via CLI in org.apache.fop.cli.CommandLineOptions (look at and around getPDFEncryptionParams()) Hope that helps Mehdi On 8 May 2012 20:53, Jonathan Levinson jonathan.levin...@intersystems.comwrote: Hi, ** ** I have written a FOP server that is multithreaded and gets it input over TCP/IP. ** ** I’m trying to figure out how to set encryption options on an instance of FOUserAgent.

Re: Fop Performance degradation after upgrading from jdk 6 u18 to u19
Hi, I'll address your concerns inline: 2012/4/24 Αναστάσιος Χαρούλης tcharou...@gmail.com Hello, We are using Apache FOP 1.0 to create Postscript documents from xml files. After upgrading the Java Virtual Machine from 1.6 update 18 to 1.6 update 19, we noticed important performance degradation. The FOP execution time was increased about 25% - 35% (depends on the number of executions). After investigating this, we concluded that the code that was responsible for this delay was in the method setValue of inner class BeanSetter of class o.a.f.fonts.type1.AFPParser. This method uses reflection to set the value of a bean and our tests showed that the time to execute a reflection call like this was increased in jdk6 u19. We also noticed that for each FOP execution (instantiation of a org.apache.fop.apps.Fop object) the fonts are loaded in memory (field org.apache.fop.fonts.FontInfo in class AreaTreeHandler) . I think you mean o.a.f.fonts.type1.AFMParser (very different to an AFP parser) but yes, that mechanism could work just without the use of beans, but it's a fickle mechanism and it would have to be done with care. We are wondering if there is a plan for caching the loaded fonts in an object that is reused between successive executions (e.g. in the org.apache.fop.apps.FopFactory). This would mean that the extra cost would occur only in the first execution. Do you think this is a good idea or is there a specific reason for the fonts not to be cached ? No, as far as I know font caching isn't really on anyone's agenda. If someone wanted to do this properly it would be a significant amount of work. The fonts system would have to be externalized so that it behaved more like a font provision service rather than the tight coupling to FOPs layout system. This would mean a lot of code redesign and that's no small feat. If the fonts caching is not a good idea, do you think the use of reflection in the BeanSetter class could be avoided? Font caching is a good idea, it's just a lot of work... And I do think the BeanSetter could be avoided, but the current code is battle-hardened so you'd just have to make sure you test it thoroughly to avoid regressions. I wanted remove the BeanSetter system when working in that initially, but as always more pressing concerns took over. snip/ Hope that helps, Mehdi

Re: Trouble with setting font base url which include space character
Hi Rob,
Firstly, we are working to change how fop handles file access and I/O in
general. I should note, that we're unifying all resource acquisition to
resolving URIs, not URLs. The two concepts differ, and it's non-trivial.
See http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/URIResolution and
http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/FopFactoryConfiguration.
Secondly, there are some misnomers in the names of these resource finders.
The issue you're seeing is that /d1/rework/acres
install/ac47/eclipe/plugins while it is a valid URL, it is not a valid
URI. The FopFactory.setFontBaseURL(...) method delegates to the
FOURIResolver to validate the String given and parses it as a URL NOT a
URL. That is why you're seeing this problem.

Re: Trouble with setting font base url which include space character
Hi Rob,

this.fontManager = new FontManager() {
/** {@inheritDoc} */
@Override
public void setFontBaseURL(String fontBase) throws

super.setFontBaseURL(getFOURIResolver().checkBaseURL(fontBase));

But then, you're calling the setFontBaseURL(...) method on FopFactory and
not FontManager, so I don't know, maybe someone else may have an idea. But
could you give us all the usuals, what version of FOP you're using? Have
you tried seeing if trunk has the same issue etc...

Re: Trouble with setting font base url which include space character
Oh no, I wasn't suggesting you change to the FontManager.setFontBaseURL(),
I was just noting that the method is overridden. Could you provide a full
stack trace, it might be interesting to note where that exception is coming
from?
Also, just to expedite the process, try the same thing with trunk, see what
happens. From testing the method call, it should accept spaces in the
String, the FOURIResolver does a lot of URI correction.

You are correct in that I'm working off of FopFactory, but my debugger
takes me to the same setFontBaseURL(String) you list so I'm not sure
switching to FontManager would change anything. (It will take a moderate
effort to switch this: the long story is that we still use older
versions of fop (including to 0.20-5 I'm sorry to say) so that's why I'm
using reflection (and classloader shenanigans to boot).

Re: FOP 0.95 font problem
Hi Khar, Firstly, the metrics XML file is deprecated in FOP 0.95 so it's not necessary, secondly, take a look at the font embedding documentation ( http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/fonts.html) and it might give you a better idea of how to configure FOP. Normal issues are users are forgetting to add the font-base tag to their fop.xconf. Hope that helps, Mehdi On 20 March 2012 08:12, Khar k...@o2.pl wrote: Hi all. We are using fop 0.95 and tomcat 5.5.

Re: AFP FOP Font Problem
Hi Sam, For future notice, could you avoid adding a new problem to someone else's thread? It just makes it confusing for those trying to help you. As for AFP fonts, you shouldn't need to install them, but you will need to configure them as per the documentation (http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/configuration.html ). If you configure FOP correctly, what you're asking for should work fine. If you do have further difficulties, could you create a new thread.

Re: Producing archiving FOP intermediate format
Hi Alex, I'm not 100% what you're asking here, I must say. If it's more of a general question of backward compatibility, then I think we get back to a topic of discussion we've been having lately about FOPs API. I'd argue that IF itself is part of FOPs API (though I wouldn't make the same argument for the Area-Tree), since it's so widely used and we need to maintain some semblance of compatibility. However, and this is a big caveat, at what cost? At what cost do we want to maintain compatibility? I think if there's a compelling reason it's OK to break compatibility, which obviously affects users like yourself. As a user, you have to mitigate that risk, by either locking down the FOP version or holding onto the XSL-FO (obviously not valid if you're creating custom IF). As a more general argument, it really isn't in the interest of broader user-base that FOP 1.0 and 2.0 create identical output be that IF or PDF/AFP/whatever; FOP is evolving, there will be new features added, bugs fixed etc, all of which change the output. If I'm not mistaken, the new TaggedPDF branch merge, will create IF that's incompatible with previous versions (breaking both backward and forward compatibility). However this was well justified, since the previous accessibility architecture was limited in design an we were really pushing against the glass ceiling in terms of features. Apologies if that hasn't been a particularly helpful answer, but if you're wanting some reassurance that there won't be gratuitous changes to IF, or some transparency on plans to rip apart IF structure, then I can tell we don't plan either. However, we don't have the regression tests to guarantee backwards compatibility, and I don't think having them is a good idea. As a side note, I do think if anyone changes IF in a way that breaks compatibility, that will be made publicly clear, and it will be discussed on fop-dev (if you haven't subscribed to that, I'd advise you do). The community will decide whether said change is acceptable, and discuss the cost/reward of such a change.

The current use case is performance. If a document is found in the store containing FOP_IF, then use it and create the final output format (typically PDF). If not, then start from XML. The retention period of the FOP_IF files is 6 months to 1 year. The XML files are kept for at least 10 years. In my tests, 85% of the time is spent on the layout and the rest for rendering. This has worked well, especially for big documents (with thousands of pages). I have no worries about the FOP_IF format and how it will evolve as I know that they will be gone after 6 months or one year max. And for sure, I can keep an older version for that long. I am now planing to use FOP in different ways and use cases such as: 1. Bypassing FOP's layout engine and it's quirks in XSL:FO input, cpu-time and memory. This means directly creating FOP_IF. With the same effort, I could use PDFBox (or iText 2.x) to create PDF files. But having FOP_IF, I also produce AFP, PS and PCL which I need and I know no other open sources renderers. 2. Longer storage of FOP_IF. Compared to storing XML, it's faster, less components are involved until the final output and it allows for easier versioning. For example, given the same XSL:FO input, FOP 2.0 will not produce the *identical* content as FOP 1.0 (I hope somebody will disagree to this :) Compared to storing PDF, the required space is much less as I have big volumes on expensive EMC storage. Secondly I retain the flexibility on selecting parts to render. Not all users have the permissions to see all parts of the documents. Also, some users see masked values (e.g. stars in place of a card number). For both cases, I really need to know your thoughts and plans for FOP_IF. Watching the lists the last 2 years, I have not noticed anything related to it.

Re: POstScrit Fonts
Hi Craig, We've sent a patch fixing this problem to Jeremias, but we've forked both FOP and Jeremias' plugin from the open versions so the code bases are a little different. If you really want, we can send a copy of the patch and you can make the necessary adjustments to the source, however I can't guarantee compatibility. There maybe some pipe work to do to make it compatible with trunk. Undoubtedly Jeremias will at some point apply a patch, with any amendments he sees fit and it will be available via his repository.

Each page will contain a single SVG, declared as

content-width=100% /
This works good when converting to PDF but I have some issues with AFP
fonts. Before going further, I would like some advise. Do you see any
problems converting a series of SVG files to AFP ?
For example, the SVG contains text. Batik uses the java AWT font system
while FOP has it's own. Obviously, in the output AFP, I need FOP to use and
embed AFP outline fonts.

Re: Default XSL Stylesheet for PDF?
Hi Jeff, FOP is an FO processor, as such it takes FO as input, not XML (even though FO is XML, XML isn't FO). You need to make sure your input is valid FO, then either use the -fo parameter or no parameter since it's the FOPs primary input. If you were curious the -xml input is used in conjunction with an XSLT (thus the -xsl parameter) to transform said XML file to FO. There is no default PDF stylesheet, this mechanism is merely a helper since a lot of users create FO using a transform. So assuming your book.xml is valid FO, the command would look like: $oreilly-handbook$ fop book.xml -pdf book.pdf Hope that helps Mehdi On 25 October 2011 08:37, Jeffrey Walton noloa...@gmail.com wrote: Hi All, I'm working on Ubuntu 10.04 (x64).

Re: Problem with fo:external-graphic element in processing output from either Saxon or Xalan
Hi Mike, I can't help you with the DocBook query as I've never used DocBook myself, however, it is important to understand that XSL-FO and XML in generally is strongly typed. As for your XML all on one line, there is a way to output a more readable format, I think you have to set indent=yes on the xsl:output object (http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/el_output.asp), but again, I don't use XSLT very often so I'm not 100% on this. Also, in future, if you have XSLT questions, could you ask them on the XLST mailing list (http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/), this mailing list is specifically for FOP questions. Hope that helps Mehdi On 7 October 2011 10:05, Mike Chambers m...@watchfront.co.uk wrote: Hi Mehdi, Ah OK thanks that makes sense, and now I understand the spec. that little bit better :) It would seem then that the block vs. inline concept is similar to that in HTML/CSS, but that in HTML you don't /have/ to explicitly wrap inline content with e.g. a block-level DIV, as you get something along the lines of an 'anonymous block box' (I think that is the terminology, and is what happens AIUI if you have e.g. bodyHello world/body, with no p / wrapping the text.). I manually added the wrapper fo:block object to the XSL-FO generated by Saxon and FOP processed it OK. OOI is it normal for an XSLT processor to output an XSL-FO (or indeed any other format) document that is a single (very long) line? It makes it harder to examine and then edit the structure of the document in a standard text editor. I'm puzzled as to why the processor output couldn't be multiline with suitable indentation. I know these are essentially machine processed files, but AIUI one of the points of XML is that a human can read it if they really want to. So now to find out why /both/ Saxon and Xalan generated XSL-FO output that omitted the same necessary wrapper object. Maybe because they were both using the same DocBook XSLT stylesheet(s) ? Would it be the case that the DocBook XSL stylesheet for generating FO output controls things such as when/where to put an fo:block? My logic limited understanding of XSLT suggests it would, and thus maybe there is a bug in the XSLT stylesheet I have obtained via a Ubuntu repository package.

Re: Problem with fo:external-graphic element in processing output from either Saxon or Xalan
Hi Mike, An external-graphic an %inline entity, and the only valid child of an fo:flow (http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/#fo_flow) is a %block. So basically you need to wrap the external-graphic object in a fo:block object i.e.: Your XSL-FO code: ... fo:flow fo:external-graphic.../ Correct XSL-FO: ... fo:flow fo:block fo:exteral-graphic/fo:external-graphic /fo:block ...

Re: Problem with arial font access
Hi Philippe, You can try and get that working, but there are several considerations you must take if you're wanting to use the auto-detect. feature, the most significant of which is that the name you set in font-family must match the system font name. IMO configuring the fonts explicitly minimizes problems in the long run, obviously there's an initial overhead.

Re: Configure fonts for FOP
Hi Fernando, Yes, if you've got the fonts configured correctly, then FOP does embed a subset of the font within the PDF. If the fonts aren't configured properly, FOP outputs error messages indicating as such.

I have taken the auto-detect out of the configuration and it picks the fonts from the directory specified so I guess it is doing what I expect which is only to include the fonts in the configured directory. Regarding the embedding of the fonts with the PDF, I've checked and the fonts are there with the target. Since I haven't told FOP anything about embedding the fonts, all it has is a directory with TTF files, I assume that the default behaviour is to embbed the fonts - it has the TTF files so it can do that I believe.

Re: fop not handling svn rotated text on linux
No problem. If you want any advice this is what I'd do: First double check it's not a kerning issue in the system font. I think this is unlikely, but we need to double check that. I'd do that by copying the font, and embedding the font in the PDF with the #PCDATA as Jo (to do this you'll have to put it in the fop.xconf and use a non-Base14 name). If the #PCDATA text shows the same issues, the problem is a font one, and we can be fairly confident it's not a FOP issue. If however this isn't repeatable with #PCDATA then we've got an issue. You'll already have the font in a local directory, so check it's type, check do some debugging in PDFPainter.drawText(...) and find out why the kerning is behaving as it is. i think it's a type1 font. I'll try and do the above myself if I get some time to spare. Just make sure you post any findings on the bugzilla entry so we can track it.

Re: Central European characters in PDF with Base14 fonts
Hi Tomasz, Sorry, maybe I didn't communicate what I meant properly. I wasn't saying there's no way to do that in PDF, or that the PDF spec doesn't allow that. I only meant that in FOP the base 14 fonts are encoded using WinAnsi. This means that FOP doesn't do what you're asking for. It is possible to get FOP to support more encodings, but the feature would have to be implemented.

Look at the example http://old.nabble.com/file/p31910912/pdf_pl.pdf pdf_pl.pdf (it should looks like http://old.nabble.com/file/p31910912/pdf_pl.jpg pdf_pl.jpg ). This PDF file contains: 4 0 obj /Type /Encoding /BaseEncoding /WinAnsiEncoding /Differences [ 143 /Zacute 159 /zacute 140 /Sacute 156 /sacute 202 /Eogonek 234 /eogonek 198 /Cacute 230 /cacute 209 /Nacute 241 /nacute 211 /Oacute 243 /oacute 163 /Lslash 179 /lslash 165 /Aogonek 185 /aogonek 175 /Zdotaccent 191 /zdotaccent ] endobj The problem was described several times, e.g.: http://old.nabble.com/Using-Central-European-characters-td3739791.html https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17828 It seems that FOP 1.0 implements Central European encoding, for example in src/codegen/fonts/encodings.xml there is definition of CE_ENCODING. The question is: how could I generate PDF from http://old.nabble.com/file/p31910912/pltext.fo pltext.fo (effect should looks like http://old.nabble.com/file/p31910912/pltext.jpg pltext.jpg ) using just Base14 fonts? I would like to avoid embedding true type fonts to simplify the solution and to keep PDF small. Embedded font means +300kb.

Re: Complex Script Support
Hi Rajat, That error message means that FOP can't find the font you're referencing. You can either put the font into your systems font directory (which depends on which OS you're using), or you can check http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/fonts.html which will describe how to manually configure fonts. Also, check the archives, there have been plenty of people struggling with this issue, you'll probably find answers to many of your questions there.

In the stable build as well as this, this combination is not occurring and the characters are printed as individual entities. I am not sure if this additional information will be of any help, but as a flash developer I face a similar problem in flash whenever I try to embed the font. The problem in flash does not occur if I use the system device fonts. The TTF font I am testing with is called 'Shonar Bangla'. I tried to test if the font would show correctly without embedding by referencing the font in the configuration file as fonts referenced-fonts match font-family=Shonar Bangla/ /referenced-fonts /fonts However, this somehow is failing with a message Warning: Font Shonar Bangla, normal, 400 not found.

Re: fop called in xslt extension is not finding fonts
Hi Rob,
I just tested this on my system and I was finding the same results as
you... When I set the output format to IF, FOP wasn't working. So
anyway, I fixed it by setting the output MIME type, which is done via
the command line as such:
./fop -c fop.xconf test.fo -if insert mime-type output.if
so in my case it was:
./fop -c fop.xconf test.fo -if application/pdf output.if
When you think about it, it does make sense. You refer to fonts in the
fop.xconf as a child of their rendering output, which allows you to
distinguish different font files according to the document output
format. There wouldn't be any way of FOP knowing your desired FINAL
output format if you were processing to IF.
How you do that using FOPs API, I don't know, but I can't imagine that
would be hard to find out.
Mehdi

Again with thanks to Jeremias, I'm successfully sizing the region-before for
dynamically generated tables. I'm doing this via and xslt extension function
(Xalan style).
The xslt extension calls my sizing function which employs fop-1.0 to
generate an IF from the given dom.Node. I notice that during the function's
invocation of fop-1.0 that the named fonts are not found and are substituted
with any in the resultant intermediate format output, with font-size=1000
(), with log messages like 'Font Optima-Oblique,normal,700 not found.
Substituting with any,normal,700'. I'm doubly confused because the fo is
ultimately processed to pdf by the same fop-1.0.
I have to confess that I'm invoking fop reflectively since we have many
versions in play and I need each to have their own classpath. That said the
same invocation happens for both the extension and the final processing.
Here's part of the where the font path is set:
final Method setFontBaseURLMethod =
fopFactoryClass.getMethod(setFontBaseURL, new Class[]{String.class});
String fontsURL = file:// + bundlePath + fopHome + /fonts;
setFontBaseURLMethod.invoke(fopFactory, new Object[]{fontsURL});
I suspect there is some subtle distinction between generating IF and PDF
output?
I get good results with this if the caller of my function is processed with
fop-1.0. If the caller is processed by fop-0.95 the estimated size is much
too large and I mis-size the region. In both cases the IF has
'font-name=any' so I'm a little surprised it work at all?!
Any pointers on where I've messed up would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Reading Fonts with XMLGraphics or FOP?
Sorry to be late on this, but what Glenn said is true for the most part. FOP does delegate SVG font handling to Batik, which does use AWT classes for processing fonts.

Re: How to get fonts loaded programatically?
Hi Theresa, There're two ways you can find out what you're looking for, some information is on the FOP website http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/fonts.html, but if that fails to answer your questions I'd suggest you look through the mailing list archives. There have been quite a few of questions regarding fonts fairly recently, so that'll probably help you find the answers you're looking for.

Re: Strange problem with no error being generated
Hi Theresa, Firstly, can you try not to mix queries in threads, if people refer back to this thread, it makes it difficult to follow. Also, you already have a thread concerning this issue so anyone that wants to help you, doesn't have all the information. That said, I think it might be worth you configuring the fonts individually rather than depending on the automated method. What output format are you using? Do you want to reference fonts or embed them? Take a look at http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/fonts.html#register, it explains how to reference fonts individually and it's not clear, please feel free to ask more questions.

Re: ToUnicode table in subset font not correct?
Hi Chris, No not quite. The patch attached to bugzilla 51144, works in trunk as it should and has no dependence on TrueTypeInPostScript. However, when I initially created the patch, I also made quite a few changes, code improvements etc, that do depend on changes made within the TrueTypeInPostScript branch. I had said that I'd fixed this in the patch in bugzilla 50483, (I have in my local branch) but I haven't attached the most recent patch to the bugzilla entry since it isn't complete. The reason I sent that last note, was to clear up my misunderstanding, since I'd posted misleading information. Hopefully that clears it up!?

Re: ToUnicode table in subset font not correct?
Hi Ruud, Sorry for the confusion, I seem to have really miscommunicated on this one. The problem that wasn't high priority was the full CID-map embedding in PostScript, I have attached a patch for this bug to your bug entry. If you want the fix, apply the patch locally, or hopefully a committer will apply it to trunk. We've done a fair bit of testing on it and it seems to work fairly well.

I only want to make clear this bug is visible to a lot of people. Earlier in this thread I have attached HAN8728A01.pdf. When you open this file, and copy and paste the text into for example wordpad, you will see that all spaces disappear (see attached screenshot). To this mail I have attached the same file, but which I have edited to replace the ToUnicode table that comes with the bold font (object 78). In that table, I have replaced the unicode to which character 2 is mapped with 0020 (space). If you copy and paste the bold text, the result is as expected. I suspect a lot of users have seen this cp behaviour. Your patch will be more than welcome. Moreover, when translating PDF to postscript, this table is fairly important too. For myself, I would be more than happy when this will be fixed. best regards, Ruud - To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org
Re: ToUnicode table in subset font not correct?
Hi Ruud, Yes this is a bug, which has been fixed in my patch, but since I didn't think anyone else had bumped into it I didn't want to put it into trunk since I also made some code improvements to the class and was weary that it could cause merge issues when/if the branches are merged. The issue is that in most fonts the first 3 glyphs are set to .notdef, and this was implemented in FOP. However, the spec says only the first glyph is reserved for .notdef, and what happens in MOST fonts doesn't happen in ALL fonts. If you create a bug report, I'll attach a patch and hopefully it'll be fixed fairly promptly.

Re: Embedding font on Solaris
Hi Michal, Check the archives, there are plenty examples of people doing this, however, you'll need to set the font-base parameter in the fop.xconf. The website has some information on this (http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/configuration.html), in your case it would be: font-basefile:///opt/szablony_wydrukow/fonts//font-base and have the embed-url=Office.ttf, this would tell FOP that the font file was in /opt/szablony_wydrukow/fonts/Office.ttf. I only explain this because there are others that have run into this problem so it might help to be more explicit. But that should fix your problem, also, just as a side point, metrics files are deprecated and so are no longer necessary.

Re: Fop 1.0: resolving relative Font URLs
Hi Ulrich, Sorry for the late reply, but /my/font/path isn't a reference to a relative path. That's an absolute path. If the absolute path of your font were /my/font/path/myfont.ttf, then your config is correct, and you are right in issuing a bug. But if your font is located at directory of fop.xconf/my/font/path/myfont.ttf, then you need to remove the prefixed /. I think this may be the issue here, I remember a commit about changing the relative directory to be relative to the fop.xconf rather than the fop.jar. Also, strictly speaking the proper format of a file URI in Unix based systems is file:/// not file:/, though IIRC FOP treats them both the same anyway. I may have completely got the wrong end of the stick here, if so, my apologies. Mehdi On 14 April 2011 08:39, Ulrich Mayring u...@denic.de wrote: Terence M.

Re: Fonts fail to print after successive print runs that work
Hi Peter, You say that it can happen anywhere from the 30th document to the 150th? Does that suppose each document is different, or does the number vary if you print the same document over and over? I.e. is the number at which it fails the same over several attempts when printing a single document?

These documents are printed using custom fonts. The output size is A0 (or ~ 4770 x 3370 pixels). Problem: After a variable amount of time some of the fonts 'stop working'. By this I mean that the glyph appearing is a letter 'A' in a box, with the same glyph used for all characters. Please see the two attached images; 'PrintJob-200a-47.png' rendered correctly while 'PrintJob-200a-48.png' stop working. The problem goes away after Tomcat has been restarted. Sometimes the error starts happening after 30 documents have been printed, other times it can be upwards of 150. Once it starts happening then it keeps happening until Tomcat is restarted. Resolutions Attempted: As I couldn't see any errors in our application logs I turned the FOP logging all the way up to 'ALL'. At no time were there any entries, for a 'failed' print job, that differed from a successful one. There are no WARN, ERROR or FATAL messages appearing in any log file. Searching for font issues seems to only turn up misconfigurations of fonts. All our fonts are configured correctly as the documents do print. It is simply that they are forgotten, lost, etc after some period of time with no errors or warnings recording in the logs Version numbers: JDK: 1.6.0_20 1.6.0_24 OS: Mac OSX 10.6.4 10.6.6 FOP: 0.95 1.0 Tomcat: 6.0.24 I can extract out the relevant FOP log entries for both a successful and failed run if requested. I haven't attached them as they are quite large. My request for help comes in several parts: 1. Has anyone else experienced this, and if so what did you do to resolve it? 2. Does anyone have any thoughts where else to look? I don't know where else to look right now. The web application is a commercial so I may be limited in what I can share. If anything else is required please ask and I will do my best to comply.

Re: PDF version specification
Hi Markus, Unfortunately looking at the code, the PDF version (1.4) is hard-coded. This is presumably because FOP doesn't support any of the features of subsequent versions, though I'm sure someone in the community will be able to tell you the exact reasons for this. You may be able to change this to 1.6, but either someone else in the community will be able to help you out there, or I'd suggest looking at the PDF spec, if PDF is backward compatible you can change the version with impunity. The PDF version is set in o.a.f.pdf.PDFDocument line 103. You'll probably have to do something to PDFProfile and add an extra case in PDFDocument.getPDFVersionString(). But that shouldn't be too difficult, that is of-course if there aren't any calamitous affects to do with the PDF spec, which I sadly lack knowledge in. Hope that helps, Mehdi On 14 March 2011 13:46, Markus Ruggiero mailingli...@kataputt.com wrote: When I generate a simple PDF from within my Java app the resulting PDF file says PDF Version 1.4.

Re: Font Weight
Hi Guys, Sorry to jump onto this so late in the game, but if you're trying to using TTF fonts with PostScript there is a branch called Temp_TrueTypeInPostScript which may help you. It allows you to embed TTFs in the PostScript which will mean you won't have to have the font installed on your printer and you can reference the font-file from your fop.xconf. If you have any issues I'd be more than happy to help.

Re: manipulate fop configuration file via java
Hi,
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think you're trying to serialize the
data that you configure progammatically. If so, but I don't think that
feature currently exists in FOP (or if it does, I haven't come across
it). If you wish to set and save config settings, you could use the
various XML DOM libraries out there to create a custom fop.xconf. That
will allow you to serialize any changes you make and you can make
changes at run-time. There maybe another way of doing this, but short
of creating your own serialization format (which in fairness wouldn't
be very difficult), that's the only way I can think of.
I may however have the wrong end of the stick here, if so, my apologies.
Mehdi

Re: FreeSerif Font not working
Superb, I was just about to delve into this but I'm glad you got to the bottom of it. Mehdi On 2 March 2011 03:19, Graeme Kidd coolki...@hotmail.com wrote: I had some spare time today so I thought I would offer a helping hand and look into it as well. It looks like you weren't far off as the AMFParser class was throwing away the character based on the fact it could not find the Unicode sequence. When reading a line from the AFM file it creates an instance of the NamedCharacter class by using the Simple constructor. This constructor only takes the character name and uses it to also create the Unicode Sequence (See line 48 in NamedCharacter class). Since the character name for the character was a custom one i.e Zbb it failed to create the Unicode sequence. To get round this issue I ensured the Force glyphs names to was set to Adobe Glyph List when I exported the font. This meant Zbb was converted to uni2124 which allowed it to be correctly picked up - problem solved. I have attached the newly exported fonts file in case you want to test it at your end. Thanks again for your help, I don't think I would have gotten this far without you. Graeme Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2011 10:19:59 + Subject: Re: FreeSerif Font not working From: med1...@gmail.com To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Hi, Ok the issue isn't with xmlgraphics commons, that was a red herring. I chased this down the rabbit hole to find the issue is in AFMParser.java. The characters that are missing aren't being mapped to the correct unicode index i.e. ℤ -- 0x2124. Which is wierd, because everything else about the glyph is being parsed correctly. That's as far as I've gotten today, at this stage, I'll have to look at the spec to see how glyphs map to unicode indices, then find out if FOP is behaving properly for this glyph. At this point we don't know whether it's a FOP bug or a font bug. I'll take another look at it tomorrow.
