Bernhard M. Wiedemann created FOP-3040:
------------------------------------------
Summary: provide deterministic PDF output
Key: FOP-3040
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-3040
Project: FOP
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Bernhard M. Wiedemann
When you use the same input to create PDF output twice, results will vary from
IDs, Time and something else.
[https://github.com/apache/xmlgraphics-fop/pull/65] fixes the time portion, but
more fixes are needed for fully deterministic bit-identical output.
Especially the diff
{{-/BaseFont /EAAAAC+DejaVuSansMono}}
{{+/BaseFont /EAAAAC+DejaVuSansMono-Bold}}
looks like a bug worth debugging outside of the context of reproducible builds.
See [https://reproducible-builds.org/] for why this matters.
