Re: Xerces compatibility question
If the suggestion below works, it's not compatible with the spec, which allows two variants of "content-type", e.g., content-type="content-type:xml/svg" or content-type="namespace-prefix:svg" (See 7.28.1) We can't even blame CSS for this one.

FOP 0.20.3 catched up with a last minute change in the spec, the page master is referenced by the attribute "master-reference" rather than "master-name". If you are actually using "master-reference" for referencing the page master, check for misspellings and whether you really defined the referenced page master. This is a FAQ.

Hello, I'm a new user of FOP 0.20.3 I would like to run my first sample simple.fo (set in docs\examples\fo) but unfortunately, it doesn't work.

FO-API with RTF-Import
Hello, If you are looking for a Java-API that helps you generating formatting objects and imports from Rich Text Format visit us www.dig-dreams.de. There you can download an evaluation version of jFO. jFO can be used to create (small - middle) reports / documents, where creating XML and XSL is too expensive. The RTF-importer of jFO allows you filling rtf-fields with user-datas (which can be strings, fo:inline-elements or xsl-nodes). So you can design templates / forms with an RTF-Editor and jFO fills them during import. Kind regards, Sascha Schmidt.

The formatting process is driven through the transformation. You need at least FOP 0.20.2, in 0.20.1 the setup was a bit more complicated.

Re: font-family and font names list
Oleg My understanding is that the list of fonts are iterated through until an existing font is found. Preferred fonts are put first. I don't know how FOP locates fonts or if it can be given some clues. Try putting sans-serif at the end ... font-family="Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, sans-serif" then try putting it at the beginning ... font-family=" sans-serif, Arial, Helvetica, Geneva" then try ... font-family=" sans-serif" I'd be interested in the results you get.

I remember a post which basically said that font lists are a last minute addendum to XSLFO imposed for CSS compatibility. I *hate* CSS for the havoc it wrecked on other otherwise quite sensible standards. The font list attribute introduces another language with a rather nontrivial grammar, which is incidentally incompatible with the expression language used for other properties. The parser in fop/expr doesn't obviously handle it, and i didn't find evidence that the font-family attribute is handled by another parser, the foproperties.xml declares this: font-family true String sans-serif So my guess is the feature is not implemented. :-( J.Pietschmann
