I saw the iText thread here a few days ago and thought I'd post an an on-demand PDF example using Apache FOP 0.90 (http:// xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/). Many FO examples are available here: http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect3/.
Thanks, I know of FOP, but never visited the other reference. Since my current problem is very simply - it basically requires no automated formatting - FOP is a but over-sized. I just need to compose a PDF based on several graphics files in such a way, that the result might print fine on a high-DPI typesetter. If the prospected customer likes UI concept and base functionality, I'll probably switch from iText to FOP. iText in general works fine, but fails to access roughly 90% of my fonts. Just downloaded uFont (or a name something like that) to convert Mac specific fonts to UNIX formats. Might help - or fail ;-) Do you know, if FOP works more nicely regarding this?
Finally, it is important to add "-Djava.awt.headless=true" to the "Additional Arguments" list to suppress a console window running WOBootstrap that will try to pop up and then fail to close, which seems to prevent the thread from returning, which causes the app to hang.
Thx! Cheers, Stefan _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
