Problems rendering PDF dynamically, but identical fop xml works fine when sent straight to serializer
Been doing some fairly sophisticated XML FO transformations. However, when I try to view the finished PDF, The Acrobat reader reports this error in the status bar: An error has occurred while trying to use this document. What is interesting is that if I serialize FO to xml rather than using fo2pdf, then the FO works fine. If I save the XML and create a new pipeline entry to render that saved xml as a pdf using fo2pdf then it works. So the transformation seems to be OK, and rendering static XML as PDFs is OK. Has anyone experienced similar problems - and if so how did you resolve it ?? Please Help Me , James __ Do You Yahoo!?

RE: Problems rendering PDF dynamically, but identical fop xml works fine when sent straight to serializer
James, Ran into something similar...this may help: Make sure that the fop JAR file version inside Cocoon is the same as the one you use when you serialize. I had fop-0.20.4.jar running from the command line and fop-0.20.3.jar running inside Cocoon and noticed some anomalies. Hope this helps!

RE: Problems rendering PDF dynamically, but identical fop xml works fine when sent straight to serializer
I played around with fo for the first time yesterday and ran into the same thing. Turns out if I enclosed everything after fo:flow flow-name=xsl-region-body with an fo:block, and then also enclosed anything within an fo:cell with fo:block things worked out fine. -Original Message- From: James Ashton [mailto:jamesashton;yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, October 24, 2002 7:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Problems rendering PDF dynamically, but identical fop xml works fine when sent straight to serializer Been doing some fairly sophisticated XML FO transformations.

The plot thickens !! (RE: Problems rendering PDF dynamically, but identical fop xml works fine when sent straight to serializer)
Cheers Robert (I'll test that out tomorrow - am away from my dev machine now - although another test described below seems to suggest that my Cocoon installation is fine.) Earlier I decided to load the page in netscape 6 instead - it worked, switch back to IE 6 - doesn't work. Has anybody else experienced problems where PDFs are delivered to Netscape but not IE. Everything works fine under Tomcat 4.0.1, but not 4.0.3 or 4.1.12 , and as far as I am aware, everything else is the same in terms of the Cocoon installation, and everything else that I've tested works in all three Tomcat versions. any help will be much appreciated. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: James, Ran into something similar...this may help: Make sure that the fop JAR file version inside Cocoon is the same as the one you use when you serialize.

Thanks Antonio, I think that may be the problem (I then installed netscape and it worked fine) - I'll check my browser when I'm on my work machine tomorrow. cheers again, James --- Antonio Gallardo Rivera [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Try to send a response with a clear PDF extension.

I had the same problem with IE too. apparently it ignores the mime type and only cares for the .pdf extension. -Original Message- From: James Ashton [mailto:jamesashton;yahoo.com] Sent: quinta-feira, 24 de Outubro de 2002 18:45 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Problems rendering PDF dynamically, but identical fop xml works fine when sent straight to serializer Thanks Antonio, I think that may be the problem (I then installed netscape and it worked fine) - I'll check my browser when I'm on my work machine tomorrow. cheers again, James --- Antonio Gallardo Rivera [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Try to send a response with a clear PDF extension.
