for bringing back the AWT Renderer in CVS HEAD. Renaud and I met last Friday at lots.ch. So, Renaud, please use the code found under the fop-0_20_2-maintain branch for reference. And happy hacking! On 22.02.2005 05:38:58 The Web Maestro wrote: On Feb 21, 2005, at 4:55 PM, Renaud Richardet

AWTRenderer: getting the absolute position of an area

2005-02-22 Thread Renaud Richardet
bonjour fop-dev's i've been walking through the rendering process. if i understand it rightly, an area doesn't records it's absolute position. therefore, we have to pass the currentIPPosition, currentBPPosition all along during the rendering process to figure out where to position an area. what i

Glen, We can do it this way. But on second thought, I think it would be better for Renaud to move it in as AWTRenderer, and slowly start factoring out more and more while things are getting settled. BTW, this will take some time to do anyway--it isn't easy because the renderers are so

Integration of TIFFRenderer in FOP

2005-03-08 Thread Renaud Richardet
Oleg, I'm currently working on the AWTRenderer. The basic idea is to create a Java2DRenderer which provides the (abstract) technical foundation. Other renderers can subclass Java2DRenderer and provide the concrete output paths [1]. I think it would be a good idea to integrate your TIFFRenderer,

Peter, Then my comment gave you a wrong impression: the Java2DRenderer is the (abstract) base for all renderers that use the Java2D API for rendering. The reference renderer is still the PDFRenderer, which inherits from AbstractRenderer directly. Renaud

I downloaded sun's codecs [2] that Oleg used in his TIFFRenderer. Jeremias, you mean that we can legally just put those in the FOP-code? Following codecs are included in [2]: - TIFF - JPEG - PNG - BMP So it should be possible to create a renderer for each of this file formats. But do we need them
