   Hi,

I have a very long tables that spreads on more than 1 page, and I

This is straight forward. You just need to define a header row. This 
is done as follows:

fo:table
fo:table-column column-number=1 width=2cm/
fo:table-column column-number=2 width=2cm/
fo:table-column column-number=3 width=2cm/
fo:table-header
fo:table-row
fo:table-cellHeading 1/fo:table-cell
fo:table-cellHeading 2/fo:table-cell
fo:table-cellHeading 3/fo:table-cell
/fo:table-row
/fo:table-header
fo:table-body
..
/fo:table-body
/fo:table

Hi,
You should probably find answer in the FAQ 
(http://xml.apache.org/fop/faq.html#pdf-doc-properties) or in the 
post-processing page (http://xml.apache.org/fop/output.html#pdf-postprocess).

incorrect row height when i want to adjust two rows to spanned one

2004-06-23 Thread Janusz Pachno



The question is "simple" I've showed it on pics 
below.I tried to do it with number row spanned and with nested tablesbut 
both, I get bad result with height of rows incorrect.

I tried to set height 100%, and align verticaly with 
display-align="center" butit only works with fixed values of height. i.e if 
i set firs colum's cell height for example 3cm it worksbut when I let it 
suit height of text cells in second column are too small

It is what i get

++--+||b 
|||--+ || 
||+--+|| 
||| 
||| 
|++--+

it is what i want

++--+||b 
||| |

||+--+||b |

|++--+

best regards

Can I use pt and pc as measurement units

2004-06-23 Thread Mike Kellstrand
Can I specify page and spacing measurements in points
(pt) and pica (pc) ?

Googling around seems to indicate this is OK, but bad
things are happening if I use them.

So first off, is it legal to use pt and pc as
measurement units in FOP and/or XSL?

Thanks,  Mike

RE: What XSLT and XSL-FO editor do you use?

2004-06-23 Thread Rob Stote
Title: RE: What XSLT and XSL-FO editor do you use?





After some further offline discussion with Clay, I have decided to expand on my reviews. I whipped off my previous email very quickly, and in hind sight I realized, although useful, the reviews were lacking some of the important information people may need. My forth coming reviews will provide as much detail as you can all stomach ;-) O/S support, JDK support, price, main features, main pitfalls etc.

Look for my review(s) in the next couple of days.


Cheers,


Rob

Thank you for this (IMHO) objective and good review of the style sheet designers currently available. I think this will be a good reference for people to see. If there are no objections (and time permitting!), I may even consider posting this and other reviews on the FOP web site (after fixing a couple of minor typos) in the appropriate Resources section--giving full credit to its author(s), of course!

 Hello all:

     I have tried the following editors:

 1) Altova:
 I found this editor the least user friendly of the bunch. It does not 
 offer a true WYSIWYG environment. Once you get your head around how to 
 actually works, you can develop stylesheet with it. Be prepared to 
 work at it though. I was a little concerned with the use of the 
 for-each in the stylesheet it produced. (please note: I have yet to 
 try Altova latest release, stylevision. My comments are in reference 
 to the stylesheet editor that came bundled with XMLSpy 2003 Enterprise 
 Edition). I could create standards compliant XSL stylesheet and deploy 
 them with out any issues. The stylesheet you produce does not contain 
 any proprietary information/tags.

 2)Inventive Designers Scriptura:
 Nice WYSIWYG editor, written in java, so platform independent. Quite 
 intuitive and easy to use. Currently (ver 3.0) Creates proprietary 
 stylesheets that can only really be used in their formatting objects 
 processor. The issue is they offer all kinds of bells and whistles 
 within the editing which can prove to be extremely handy. The issues 
 is you can not really use the designed stylesheet with FOP. They are 
 about 2 versions behind on the xalan they use, consequently the name 
 space references...especially when it comes to java get royally 
 screwed up when you try and use the stylesheet in FOP. The motto here 
 is you have to design...test... see what breaks, redesign...test...see 
 what breaks, redesign...test...see what breaks... Then go in and 
 manually change the name space declarations. Get the point.

 3)Antenna House XSLTemplate Designer
 Of the XSLFormatter fame, Antenna house has decided to offer it's 
 clients a designer. One problem The stylesheet produced will 
 only work with AH's XSLFormatter... You can not export the stylesheet 
 to be used with other formatters. Try as I might, my conversation 
 proved fruitless with them, I tried to point out that it might be 
 important to developers to have the option to deploy the stylesheet on 
 a machine running a formatter other than XSLFormatter... No dice
 So for the purposes of this forum.. They are out.

 4)XSLFast
 Nice WYSIWYG editor, written in java, so platform independent (sound 
 familiar). XSLFast has fixed some of the annoyances they had in their 
 earlier versions... They are the only editor on the market, as far as 
 I can tell, that does not have an agenda of promoting a particular 
 formatting engine (Scriptura, or antenna house). I liked using it. It 
 is written in swing, so it can be a little sluggish in responding at 
 times. I was able to develop a stylesheet and deploy it to my 
 application using FOP with out any compatibility issues. It has some 
 nice touches, such as offering a call out to an external stylesheet.
 The table tool is still a little counter intuitive, but over all a 
 step forward for them.

 5)by hand baby.
 The reality is I use oXygen 4.0, my Ken Holman books, Zvon, and a 
 whole lot of blood and sweat. I try an approach the stylesheet 
 development the same way I approach my java programming. Creating 
 reusable objects ( in this case templates) Importing and reusing where 
 I can.

 My two cents:

 Rob

 The only XSL-FO editors I'm aware of are listed on the FOP Resources 
 page[1]. This discussion recently came up on this list, so if you 
 check the archives, you might find something which leads to something.

 Please report back what works best for you, so the FOP community can 
 benefit from your experience.
