Problem with generated PDF files

2002-02-14 Thread Phillips Tony

Hello,

I think I have a problem with my generated PDF files!  To make it easier to
handle distribution of the output files, I produce the output PDF in a
temporary 'working' directory which is fine.  I then copy the output PDF to
its final destination and, in theory, remove the temporary (generated) file.
However, the copy is fine but removing the generated file fails every
time...  

Has anyone experienced similar problems with access to FOP generated PDF
files? If so, any solutions? I'm using FOP 0.20.2-RC1

many thanks


Tony

RE: Problem with generated PDF files

That sounds reasonable but I'm not running as a servlet, it's a back end
server process... perhaps I still need to create a temporary (empty) PDF
which I own ?

 if you work with java, you should let your applicationserver make a

Win2K/NT... wonder if it's not going out of scope before I pick up the copy,
hmm.  Perhaps if I force a garbage collect it will help!  Something to
try...

 Win or UNIX? - Makes a difference, cos in UNIX you can delete 
 a file any 
 time, WIndows, you can't if the file is open (by anything).
 
 Are you making sure to close any output streams? - In theory 
 they should 
 be closed when the object gets garbage collected, but this 
 may be some 
 time after the file object goes out of scope (or even never)
 
 Worth a look anyway.

Table layout

2002-01-10 Thread Phillips Tony

Hello,

I have created an invoice utility based on FOP to produce PDF invoices.  

I've used a multi column table for the 'body' of the invoice and it's
looking quite nice so far!  However, within the narrative column items can
be grouped under headings, for example:

Heading 1 
item
item

Heading 2
item
item

Total

This is working well however I need to do something to make sure that a
heading stays with it's entries when the item list is split over multiple
pages - I guess it's like using keep with next when formatting paragraphs
in Word!

Any guidance much appreciated!

thanks

Tony

Advice please

2001-12-05 Thread Phillips Tony

Hi,

I'm putting together a bill production facility which is now almost
complete; there's some reasonably complex XSL:FO stuff to produce lovely
bills in PDF...and I'm impressed with FOP.  However, I now need to print
'em!  

I've looked at a couple of options:

1. firing off Acrobat from command line to print a file
2. build in printing direct from FOP.  

My problems with the above are:

1. My most common target boxes is SCO Unix; Acrobat doesn't appear to have
been ported! 

2. I've made this work but I get different results - presumably becuase of
differences in the renderer.

Can anyone advise me of other options? - Anyone experience with a PDF to
printer utility that'll work, perhaps in Java, perhaps that exists for SCO?
Or is there a better way of producing a printed page from FOP?

many thanks


Tony
