Before i get to the meat, a net.cop note: Use meaningful subjects, don't mention crossposting (even if it is justified in the first place), don't bother the gurus in the dev lists, there are user lists. Is the problem in my XSL-FO? Is the problem in my SVG? Is the problem with Batik? Is the problem with FOP? Well, ultimately the problem is caused by a somewhat unlucky choice of the SVG standards group... An I/O error occured while processing the URI 'file:D:/Projects/Dev/#PurpleToWhite' specified on the element circle The url(#PurpleToWhite) in your circle element is a relative URL which was resolved to the absolute URL in the error message above, which, as it apparently represents a directory, is not a good source for SVG gradients. The reason why you got the absolute URL above depends on how you invoked FOP and perhaps a few other circumstances. In any case it has to point to a valid SVG file (or at least XML). This may be somewhat problematic as you probably generate the SVG inline in the FO tree. You could try 1. Have a separate SVG file and use it with fo:external-graphics 2. Have a separate SVG which contains only the gradient (and perhaps other SVG stuff you want to reference) and point an absolute URL to it: fill=url(file:///c:/refstuff/grad.svg#PurpleToWhite) 3. Same as above but use a relative URL fill=url(grad.svg#PurpleToWhite) This may be easier to deploy. Put the file in D:/Projects/Dev. 4. Let the URL refer to some location where the gradient could be retrieved, for example if the SVG code is embedded in your XSL, try fill=url(my.xsl#PurpleToWhite). Don't know whether this works, or whether this is even supposed to work. Expect a performance hit in all cases. Ultimately, both FOP and especially Batik should be fixed to make your code work as expected, but this will not only take some time but also some efford by a standard committee in order to make the semantics of this kind of references in embedded SVG clearer.

Scott Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Sorry about the subject line, but my previous subject SVG Problem with FOP got no replies. I read it but had real work to do. However, it still can't locate the gradient definition. It gives the following error An I/O error occured while processing the URL 'file:C:/Projects/Dev/Gradient.svg#PurpleToWhite' Try an absolute URL, with emphasis to the triple slash, as this is the correct form for file URLs. file:///C:/Projects/Dev/Gradient.svg#PurpleToWhite Check the location carefully. If this succeeds, you could try to set the baseDir configuration parameter to file:///C:/Projects/Dev/, search the FOP doc for how to do this (presumably in the userconfig.xml). The exception generated by Batik now identifies the correct file, but still can't seem to locate the gradient definition. The I/O-Error seems to indicate the generic problem of not getting some or all of the content of the file. Changing the content wont fix this. You may have to experiment a bit. For example, try access a small GIF from this directory as fo:external-graphic. If FOP gets an error with the GIF file, it's the directory or the URL syntax or something more general. If the GIF shows up, it's your SVG file, perhaps you should check well-formedness or SVG-validity or whatever. I really can't help much further, you'll have to solve the problem for yourself.

Re: please help!!!
Hi Eric, Sorry if no one has answered your plea before now. Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately?) I don't have any problem with the example you sent. I'm using the latest CVS, but if you are using an earlier version of FOP, you probably should try with the latest release which is 0.20.1. I've attached the PDF I generated, using a simple A4 size page master. I assume this is the result you want? It's true that the overflow property isn't implemented yet in FOP, but Yyou shouldn't need to use it here, since the text is just wrapping normally in the table cell. Overflow is really meant for flow objects which won't fit at all on the page and should be clipped. An example would be a large graphic. eric.deandrea wrote: I have a table with 4 columns. One of the cells has text in it that is bigger than the size of the column and the text is over-writing the text in the following cell. How do I stop this?
