OK, I see the issue. There seems to be a regression from 1.1 to trunk.
You need jai_imageio.jar in your lib directory if using trunk. With 1.1
that is not necessary. I will investigate this but for now just get
jai_imageio.

And just to add one more point:
I downloaded the 1.1 binary to this same Mac and ran:
$ ~/Downloads/fop-1.1/fop -d -c fop-config.xml -fo
frus1969-76v03-cover.fo -pdf frus1969-76v03-cover2.pdf
(Using the same fop-config.xml as described in my original email.)
The resulting PDF has the TIFF image intact, as expected - no black
box as I got with my locally build and configured trunk.
I guess this points not to a system level issue but rather my method
of building or configuring fop trunk, right?

Hi Luis,
Thank you for your reply! I just tried rebuilding on my other Mac and
reproduced my earlier black box problem. I also tried your suggestion
to change the image reference to point to the local file system, with
the same results:
Original form of the image reference on line 27:
<fo:external-graphic
src="url('http://localhost:8080/cms/apps/tei-content/images/Image_0001.tiff')"/>
Form 2:
<fo:external-graphic src="url('Image_0001.tiff')"/>
Form 3:
<fo:external-graphic
src="url('http://localhost:8080/cms/apps/tei-content/images/Image_0001.tiff')"/>
Given that you weren't able to reproduce the problem, I wonder if
there could be a configuration problem on my side. Here was my
procedure after checking out trunk:
First, I built fop using "ant package", based on the recommendation at
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/compiling.html.
Second, I set up this ~/.foprc file:
FOP_OPTS="-Xmx2000m -Djava.awt.headless=true"
FOP_HOME="~/workspace/fop/"
Let me explain the values I chose: I set the Xmx because at first my
transformations were stalling at around page 500 of a 1000-plus page
publication, and raising the memory here allowed the transformation to
complete. I set headless=true because I was using a bash for loop on
a directory of nearly 200 .fo files and the FOP icon kept stealing
focus. And this FOP_HOME "~/workspace/fop/" directory is where I
checked out fop trunk, i.e., I ran chmod +x on ~/workspace/fop/fop to
be able to call the command I listed before:
$ ~/workspace/fop/fop {and so on...}
Could something in my .foprc be messed up?
Going further afield, I have this Oracle Java JDK:
$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_11-b21)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.6-b04, mixed mode)
I also have the XCode Command Line Tools and homebrew installed with
these packages:
$ brew list
ant automake graphviz libksba libtool openssl python sqlite
autoconf gdbm libgpg-error libpng libyaml pkg-config readline
If there's any other information I can provide, I'd be happy to.
Thanks again,
Joe

I am unable to reproduce the problem. I am also using Mac OS X 10.9, and same
trunk revision.
Can you try to place the image on the local disk (instead of retrieving it from
a web server) to check whether that is causing the problem?

Hi all,
I recently built FOP for the first time to see if a problem I was
experiencing under 1.1 (it would consistently hang when rendering a
certain page) would go away if I tried trunk. While trunk does now
overcome the problem I was having under 1.1, I am experiencing a new
problem: a TIFF that I embed on the cover page of my output was
displaying correctly under 1.1 but is now appearing as a squat, opaque
black box in the PDF generated under trunk.
I'm running fop trunk rev. 1543560 on Mac OS X 10.9, and ran fop on
the command line:
$ ~/workspace/fop/fop -d -c fop-config.xml -fo frus1969-76v03.fo
-pdf frus1969-76v03.pdf
I don't get any errors in the output about the image (which is stored
on a local server at being inaccessible.
I've uploaded sample fo, the image, and the resulting PDF at the following URLs:
http://static.history.state.gov/temp/fop/frus1969-76v03-cover.fo
http://static.history.state.gov/temp/fop/frus1969-76v03-cover.pdf
http://static.history.state.gov/temp/fop/Image_0001.tiff
http://static.history.state.gov/temp/fop/fop-config.xml
The problem is apparent on the PDF, where I would expect to see
Image_0001.tiff embedded but instead see an opaque black box.
According to the docs
(http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/graphics.html#tiff), this
CCITT Group IV-encoded TIFF image should be compatible with FOP. And
it rendered fine under 1.1.
I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have. I'm not quite sure
what to try next.
Thank you,
Joe
