fo:float
I know the tag isn't supported yet. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to implement flowing text around an image? I saw some posts about using tables, but I'm a bit foggy on how to do that. I am guessing there's quite a bit of calculating which text goes on top, bottom and to the side of the image. I took a peek in the font XML file. I'm not sure how to use that data. One particular font (Courier) had a width of 600 for most of its characters. I wasn't sure what that 600 meant, and how to transfer that to pixels, inches, etc (I guess the font size would have to be used too). Any pointers, suggestions, tips, etc would be helpful.

Re: SVG scaling issue (when rendering 2 SVGs of same height)
I think, i don't understand fully the problem you have, but since i had to embed different sized Logos in some pdf Document and there was a lot of problems with transparency with all graphic-formats except svg, i patched th PDFRenderer of fop. So i can do something like that. The Problem may be, that th scaling don't change the ratio of the svg's. So the width and height attributes only define a bounding box in which the svg is scaled. So if your svg is 15 x 150 then (depending on the sample above) it will be scaled to somthing like 5 x 50. I don't know, if that helps you, but i can send you my fop.jar if you like.

I saw some posts about using tables, but I'm a bit foggy on how to do that. I am guessing there's quite a bit of calculating which text goes on top, bottom and to the side of the image. Yes, you would have to guess (by calculating width of text) at XSLT stage what text to put in the cells surrounding the image. I took a peek in the font XML file. I'm not sure how to use that data. One particular font (Courier) had a width of 600 for most of its characters. I wasn't sure what that 600 meant, and how to transfer that to pixels, inches, etc (I guess the font size would have to be used too). measurements in FOP are typically 1/1000th of a Point. However, when dealing with Fonts the measurements in the metrics need to be adjusted according to required Point size. Hence they are unlikely to be physical measurements like pt or mm. I would imagine 600 meant 0.6em here. Perhaps one of the committers can be of more help here. Chris - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Graphics resolution
I have an XSL-FO transformed document from which I render a TIFF-image. I wonder, is it possible with any -tag define the DIMENSIONS ( or dpi) of the TIFF-image to be rendered ?

Using foreach in FOP
I am attempting to merge an XSL and XML file to generate a PDF, and I have encountered a problem that I can't find a solution to. The XML file that I am working with has the following format: valA valB valC valD valE valF valG valH As you can see there are 2 products of type "Cat 2", now what I am attempting to achieve is for FOP to create a PDF with 3 tables (one for each category) and within each table put the values that have that category. So something like this: Cat 1 valA valB Cat 2 valC valD valG valH Cat 3 valE valF I have managed to do simple foreach merging (i.e. cycling through each "product" in "products", but I can't seem to find a way of doing this using the "category" attribute to group items. One thing that could be an issue here, is that I don't have any control of the "category" attribute value, so it isn't possible to hardcode the XSL file to pull out specific values by attribute value. In other words this needs to be 100% dynamic, as on 1 run the XML may have 2 categories and 6 products, on another it may have 40 categories and 500 products.

Re: Using foreach in FOP

You could force a page-break after the table, or add one conditionally during the XSL transform, but as soon as it's FO, you would probably need a hack (maybe a real ugly one, I'm not sure.)

The Unicode character code database doesn't have a square bullet either, which is a bit more surprising. The nearest thing in the symbols area seems to be the hyphen bullet, U+2043 (‣ in XML). There's also the black square U+25A0, the small square U+25AA, black diamond U+25C6 and a variety of other rectangles and squares, some patterned, in the vincinity. Neither of these characters is in any of the standard PDF fonts, not even the Sympol font. The infamous Arial Unicode has glyphs for them.
