Re: FOP command-line option in ant task
Hi Walter,
Have you tried running FOP from the command line? This is the
preferred way to run FOP as a stand alone application. If you can
invest a little time to set this up you will be rewarded with the
ability to fully configure FOP.
If you think you are truly bound to the ant task, then a modest
modification to org.apache.fop.tools.anttasks.Fop to parse the
properties for the encryption parameters, as suggested by Jeremias.
This is handled from the command line arguments by
org.apache.fop.cli.CommandLineOptions, which you may want to use for
inspiration.
Good luck,
Peter

Apache FOP Newbie needs Help Converting XML to PDF

Font Configuration
Hi Guys, I need some help for afp-font configuration. Currently my fo uses 2 fonts, TimeRoman-10-Normal and TimesRoman-10-Bold. I am using default fop configuration. When I generate afp file, I get the codepages (T1V10500) character sets (C0N2 and C0N4) as external resource referenced in afp file. It seems the codepage and character set are mapped to following line in fop configuration afp-font name=Times Roman type=raster codepage=T1V10500 encoding=Cp500 afp-raster-font size=10 characterset=C0N2 base14-font=TimeRoman/ afp-font name=Times Roman Bold type=raster codepage=T1V10500 encoding=Cp500 afp-raster-font size=10 characterset=C0N4 base14-font=TimesBold/ I though the above configuration will embed the font information in the afp file but it is added as an external resource. The sample afp I received from client has embedded resource codepage T1GMCUSR (ibm-500_P100- 1995) with character - set C001 (Arial, 10) and character-set C002 (ArialBold, 10). I am not sure how to proceed with this. What all resources and configuration I would need to map and embed this Information in generated afp file. Attach is the afp file output. Please help.

Re: Apache FOP Newbie needs Help Converting XML to PDF
Hi, Can you tell us exactly which files you are using when you invoke fop, please. Your command should look something like fop -xml foo.xml -xsl foo.xsl -pdf foo.pdf judging by the files you have attached. I am guessing you missed out the -xml/-xsl flags, leading FOP to believe you were supplying an FO file. When an XML and XSL files are supplied, FOP will perform an XSLT transform using the Xalan XSLT Xalan library (I am guessing you will need to know more about this stage in your project), generating the FO document stream that is then processed to generate the output in the desired format: XML + XSL - [XSLT transformer] - FO - [XSL:FO processor] - PDF This initial stage just saves on from having to do the transform first.

RE: Apache FOP Newbie needs Help Converting XML to PDF
That error means exactly what it says. The file you're passing with the -xsl parameter is incorrect. It's not xslfo. Your xsl file is designed for viewing xml in a browser, not for transforming xml into a document. HTML xsl (http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/default.asp) Xslfo (http://www.w3schools.com/xslfo/xslfo_documents.asp) That xslfo page shows how to create the fo which would be the xsl combined with xml, as it doesn't have the stylesheet tag. The file FOP is looking for on the -xsl parameter is the combination of those, with the stylesheet tag and the fo:root tag. The FO tutorials explain how you can mix the xsl and fo together (http://www.w3schools.com/xslfo/xslfo_xslt.asp). -Original Message- From: italocardwell [mailto:italo.cardw...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2011 9:26 AM To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: RE: Apache FOP Newbie needs Help Converting XML to PDF Sorry the -xm was a fat finger.

Re: Font Configuration
Hi Peter, Thanks for the response. Currently I don't have the IBM raster fonts, so the configuration is with base-14 fonts. But the documents says *By default, all manually configured fonts are embedded, unless they are matched in the **referenced-fonts section of the configuration file*http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/fonts.html#embedding *. However, the default fonts shown above will not be embedded.* So default fonts here means base14-font. Is the assumption right or my configuration is not able to detect base14-font.

RE: Font Weight
Yes. Generally one font file contains one font set with one weight. You would need to supply a custom font set to get a different weight. Any program which allows you to print in a different weight would do the same, to either require you to have a font set in that weight or to guess at it. Guessing can be bad. For instance I create images from FOP with the PNGRenderer. It gets larger images if I increase targetresolution. If I generate a smaller image then try to make it bigger with the Graphics2D transforming method you can see it gets fuzzy. Optional fuzzy logic could be useful, currently not implemented.

Re: Font Weight
Josh, What you have not said yet is whether you actually have (on your system) a font with the desired weight or not. Specifically, do you actually have installed multiple font instances with the distinct weights you wish to reference? If you do not, then it doesn't do much good to discuss referring to them. On the other hand, if you do have distinct faces with weights 300, 500, 600, 800, 900, etc., installed, then it is merely a matter of ensuring that the reference in your FO file correctly maps to the associated font instance. That can be handled in different ways. So please answer whether you do have the fonts installed in the first place with these weights. G.

RE: Font Weight
I was just doing research on this topic, came back here to supplement my message with info, and saw you already beat me to it. Helpful method: getFontInfo().dumpAllTripletsToSystemOut() So… yes, I do not have fonts installed for font weights of 300, 500, etc. and that would account for resolving to 400/700. The problem I’m seeing is when generating a PostScript and a Tiff from the same xsl-fo file. The text generated in the Tiff (for the 400 weight) appears much lighter than identical text in the PostScript and is likely due to using the Java2DRenderer vs. the PsRenderer. Oddly, when I set the font to Arial in the xsl-fo: - the font in the resulting PostScript appears Times Roman - the font in the resulting Tiff is identical to the font used in the Tiff when Helvetica was specified. Other than hunting down, installing and registering a weight 500 or so font for Helvetica or Arial (where might I find one? No idea.), are there other options that might I employ to lessen the lightness of the 400-weight ?

RE: Font Weight
I tested all the renderers. The TIFFRenderer created an image file and I didn't like it. The PSRenderer didn't like my TTFs. The PDFRenderer works for generating PDF documents and sending output indirectly to the printer. I actually use embedded code and pass a PDFRenderer to the FOUserAgent then get the output in PDF format from the transform in a stream and pass it into the load of PDDocument in the pdfbox project and use the java print job to print it. That has printed everything I've attempted to every printer we have. I'm also now using the PNGRenderer to get the output as images of pages to load into a custom preview window. This is working great. My preview window allows me to transform the document on the server and stream the output images to the client to display so I don't have to generate a transformer or renderer on the client machine and it's pretty fast (way faster than the FOP PreviewPanel). The PNGRenderer of course extends the Java2DRenderer.

RE: Font Weight
The process that we have to take user-generated input and end up with a G4 TIFF file. The current process is like this: 1 - We've got a front-end system that generates HTML from XSLT with a flag for input purposes (input form fields are generated), or output style. 2 - Generated html is passed through a transformer with html_to_fo.xsl applied to create XSL-FO data. 3a - Today, we take the resulting XSL-FO data and use FOP to generate a PostScript file, which is sent to a legacy third party library that transforms the PostScript into a beautiful near-identical G4 TIFF. For technical reasons, we have to stop using the third party library which is both EOL and creates issues (the library does not ignore a console shutdown signal and kills the service). 3b - Tomorrow, I'd like to just take the resulting XSL-FO data and generate the G4 TIFF files using FOP (hence my TIFF-focused Buzilla contributions 49695, 49696 and 50657) . At the moment, I'm just straight generating the TIFF from the XSL-FO data. It mostly looks like the source, but for some reason the lesser fonts are a lot lighter. It's my understating that Fop is output-only when it comes to PostScript, correct? For comparison purposes, I'm generating the PostScript and Tiff files as flat files. Then I 1 - compare them side-by-side on the screen 2 - throw them both at a printer (and make sure the Tiff is sent through PhotoShop and not shrunk to fit). The printouts line up physically, but the font for any 10pt in the Tiff is much lighter (likely due to aliasing) than that produced with the PostScript, or even that produced by a Tiff that has undergone the process described in 3a above. With the Oddly comment quoted below, apparently the PostScript deferred to any,normal,400 and any,normal,700 when confronted with Arial,normal,400, which is not a big deal because my eventual goal is removing the PostScript. -Josh From: Eric Douglas [mailto:edoug...@blockhouse.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2011 2:18 PM To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: RE: Font Weight 1.

Re: Complex Script, BIDI text supported?
I have a fix for the block-container issue as well, which I will commit shortly to my GIT repo. The problem was that earlier (pre complex script) code apparently assumed that right-to-left writing mode was handled by mirroring the CTM around the y axis, so it was setting the CTM incorrectly for the viewport area generated by block-container. In fact there is no relationship between WM and reference orientation (and thus CTM on viewport area). I'll let you know when I've made the commit. G.
