Re: SVG to PDF: CMYK conversion / Can't open PDF in Adobe Illustrator

Hi

It seems I'm not the only one with this problem. Have a look in the Adobe
user to user forum for the Illustrator (Win). There is a message with the
topic File opens in all PDF viewers except Illustrator 10.. Forum:
http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx?14@@.ee6b328

 Probably safe. The reason for these two problems is the lack of
 configuration (no compression, no custom fonts), I think. This will be
 addressed for the first release of the PDF transcoder. Monitor this
 mailing list for announcements.

  One more question:
  Can I change the size (widht and height) of the generated PDF file?

 There's something about that here: http://xml.apache.org/fop/dev/svg.html


 The test.svg and the resulting PDF you sent are pretty simple. I've
 cross-checked most elements in the PDF with the PDF spec and I can't see
 anything strange. Without access to Adobe Illustrator and/or a better
 error message from it I can't do anything else. Probably best if you
 sent the PDF to Adobe support. The PDF, by the way, opens nicely in
 GhostScript/GhostView and CorelDraw.

SVG to PDF: CMYK conversion / Can't open PDF in Adobe Illustrator

2003-03-11 Thread Hans Stoessel
Hi

I convert an SVG file into a PDF file using FOP:


//--
 // Save as PDF

//--
  boolean saveAsPDF() {
try {
  Configuration.put(strokeSVGText, Boolean.FALSE);
  // create a JPEG transcoder
  PDFTranscoder t = new PDFTranscoder();
  // set the transcoding hints
  // create the transcoder input
  String s = new File(C:\\Temp\\Chart.svg).toURL().toString();
  TranscoderInput input = new TranscoderInput(s);
  // create the transcoder output
  OutputStream ostream = new FileOutputStream(C:\\Temp\\Chart.pdf);
  TranscoderOutput output = new TranscoderOutput(ostream);
  // save the image
  t.transcode(input, output);
  // flush and close the stream then exit
  ostream.flush();
  ostream.close();
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
return false;
}
catch (IOException e) {
return false;
}
catch (TranscoderException e) {
return false;
}
  return true;
 }

The conversion works fine, but I have 2 problems:

- The SVG file is in RGB colorspace, the PDF should be in CMYK.
How can I convert RGB to CMYK?

- I can open the PDF in Adobe Reader, but not in Adobe Illustrator.
What could be wrong?
Has anybody the same effect?

Thanks for help

Hans

Re: SVG to PDF: CMYK conversion / Can't open PDF in Adobe Illustrator

Hi

Thanks for your answer.

Update in CVS:
...I suggest you update to the one in CVS because it's improved and nearing
a release. ...and we could use some testers. :-)
I have downloaded the latest version and built it. But it doesn't work. The
class org.apache.fop.configuration.Configuration is missing. I removed it
from my code and tried to transcode the SVG to PDF. But in the method
transcode in the class PDFTranscoder the error ClassNotFoundException
occured in URLClassLoader. I suppose a class isn't available. 

CMYK conversion:
The PDF transcoder contains some code to pass CMYK color to the PDF if it's
specified as CMYK in the SVG. If you can convert your SVGs to CMYK
colorspace you have some (!) chance of sucess.
I can't convert my SVg to CMYK because SVg doesn't support CMYK, only RGB.

Can't open PDF in Adobe Illustrator:
But doing a quick search in the archives I found this:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=10221860971r=1w=2
I have a look in this group and changed PDFStream.java like discribed. But
it doesn't work.

The PDF transcoder would have to be extended to provide RGB-to-CMYK
conversion functions.
As another option: there maybe some PDF tool around that can do the
conversion for you.
Do you know such a tool? Or a lib for Java?

 Setting the strokeSVGText property is not necessary anymore because the
 PDF transcoder decides itself if it can use the PDF TextPainter or if
 the text must be stroked because there is some complex transformation.

 Can you post a complete stacktrace and maybe a little SVG file that is
 failing in your application?

 Can you try to find the smallest SVG example that works with Illustrator
 (if that exists) and then add features again (text, lines, shapes...)
 until you experience the bug in Illustrator. That should help narrowing
 down the problem point. Maybe you could also send the PDF to Adobe
 support and ask them to analyze what's wrong with it. That feedback
 could also help us to find the problem.

 Searching for pdf rgb cmyk conversion shows quite a few promising

OK, I can transcode my SVG file now with the new FOP version. The PDF is
much bigger than before, but I can't still open it in Adobe Illustrator.
With the Reader it works.

Bad quality means that the text (fonts) is bad looking (rasterd, gray not
black, ...). It seems to be the resolution or something like that.

 The latest versions of FOP should do a good job of PDF generation.

Do you have a code example how I can convert SVG to PDF using Batik/FOP?

Converting SVG files to different file formats

2003-02-04 Thread Hans Stoessel
Hi

I have a Java (JDK 1.4.1) standalone application which generates SVG files
(Charts with JFreeChart). This charts should be converted into different
file formats like JPG, PDF and maybe EPS. The converted files must be high
quality files for printing media. I try to do that on different ways, f.e.
with Batik, FOP and Image Magick, but the results are bad. I use Windows
2000 as OS.

- How can I do that?
- Does anybody know a good way to convert files form SVG into different
formats with a high quality?
- Has anybody sample code how to improve the quality when I use Image Magick
or Batik?
- Has anybody sample code how I can convert an SVG file into high quality
PDF using FOP?
- Is there an another good tool or Java library to do that?

Thanks a lot

Regards

Hans
