I'm not really sure that the jpg file format is what is wrong. Several arguments : - Both in current (0.20.5) and recent version (0.20.3), I have one special picture with question mark, which I use in case, when there's picture missing in database. In FOP 0.20.3 was all ok, and this picture hasn't changed since. (See attached file: pictx.jpg) - there's a few files that are GIFs , not JPGs - also invisible ! - why then calling fop from batch is OK ?
I set up a very simple fo file using above picture: <?xml version="1.0"?> <fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";> <fo:layout-master-set> <fo:simple-page-master page-height="29.7cm" page-width="21cm" margin-top="1cm" margin-bottom="2cm" margin-left="2.5cm" margin-right=" 2.5cm" master-name="first"> <fo:region-body margin-top="1cm" margin-bottom="1cm"/> <fo:region-before extent="1cm"/> <fo:region-after extent="1cm"/> </fo:simple-page-master> </fo:layout-master-set> <fo:page-sequence master-reference="first"> <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <fo:block> <fo:external-graphic width="2cm" height="2.5cm" src="c:\pictx.jpg"/> </fo:block> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </fo:root> Here's output from fop.bat (ok) (See attached file: FromBatch.pdf) Here's output from embedding (blind) (See attached file: FromEmbed.pdf) I compared these two files and found several differences. I think some bytes in area where the picture is stored are changed - for example: 023E 81 -> F3 0283 83 -> F3 0288 88 -> F3 .... On the first sight, all bytes that are changed, are changed (overwritten) to 'F3'. Something is wrong with PDF, but not with the source JPG ... Jiri Nejedly >Ok, I get it.
