processing large files
Hi, At Volvo we implemented the FOP-mechanism for rendering mainframe lists into PDF-documents. On the mainframe we build a valid xml-file. this file is sent to the java-server, which will validate, parse and convert the document into 1 or more PDF documents. This is a very very short explanation of what the program does :-) The mechanism works fine for us, but there's one major problem. One of our lists is over 100 mb and it requires over 1 gb memory to process via FOP. We've searched everything to make it more performant, but everytime the FOP starts the memory that is consumed is huge! On the website I saw that you are working on a more performant version of FOP, but that you don't know when it will be released (2003). We are almost at the end of 2004 and we are very interested if you know when it might be released? Solutions or temporary tips might also be very usefull! For the smaller files (up to 50 megabytes) FOP works fine, but processing large files isn't very performant. Thanks for your help and time, Christophe Vanderhaeghen analist - programmer _ Christophe Vanderhaeghen Volvo IT Belgium AS-OTD (location BTE) Telephone: 09/250.42.26 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have no objection and agree with your proposal: vote +1. Thanks for following this up. Regards, Simon -- Simon Pepping home page: http://www.leverkruid.nl

Although > there is still issue 28706 I applied a patch and closed bug 28706. I believe this issue has been superseded by Luca's contributions, as you already expected. I think you may remove the remark about the issue. Note that justification has only been implemented for the PDF renderer. It may be easily implemented by other renderers who can do the actual justification themselves, given the required dimensions. Regards, Simon -- Simon Pepping home page: http://www.leverkruid.nl
