FORMATTING IS PERFECT, SINCE YOU GENERATED IT MANUALLY. WORD IS NOT 
REQUIRED. ANY OS HAS A RTF (GOV. SPEC) READER.

Re: Struts/FOP

2001-12-17 Thread Sandeep Takhar

when you emit RTF, can the users edit this format
(unlike PDF).

is there an import into word and does it lose the
formatting?

sorry for my ignorance.

Re: Struts/FOP

2001-12-13 Thread Vic Cekvenich

Cocoon and Struts are different.
Since I wanted to avoid server side production load issues (of lots of 
XSLT) I emit XML from JSP to browses.

And the browses then do the XSLT FOP-like for me. This way salability is 
flat, as more users use it, each user uses its own XSLT on client side. 
(For older browser, need JavaScript for XSLT, but new ones do XML just fine)

(And I also use RTF instead of PDF, since RTF reader is already 
installed on all OSes, and Adobe PDF has to be installed and for other 
reasons I avoid Adobe . And I do not use all the FOP tags, just a few 
like table and row).

I would be interested in your approach. I used Cocoon to publish to a PDF 
file. Anyone with integration issues between the two frameworks?

Thanks,

Re: Struts/FOP

 I'm interested in this as well.  I just finished a project writing a XSL/FO 
stylesheet to generate a report, and did the creation through command line via a junit 
test suite.  
If you get this figured out, let me know, I'd be happy to help publish a struts-fop

I've reviewed the servlet example from the FOP distro. and it seems as if as
long as I have access to the response object (which I do in the Action
servlet) I should be fine.

For those interested, the situation is that (from a servlet) I will be using
Enhydra's Zeus to generate an in-memory XML doc, then using that XML doc and
a pre-written XSL stylesheet I plan on using FOP to build a PDF doc and
shoot it back to the user's browser. Not too out of the ordinary, but I'd
like to inquire into any pitfalls.

Struts/FOP

2001-12-13 Thread John M. Corro

Has anyone ever generated a PDF file (via FOP) from an Action servlet?  Any
implications in doing so via an Action servlet vs. a standard/plain servlet?
I've reviewed the servlet example from the FOP distro. and it seems as if as
long as I have access to the response object (which I do in the Action
servlet) I should be fine.

For those interested, the situation is that (from a servlet) I will be using
Enhydra's Zeus to generate an in-memory XML doc, then using that XML doc and
a pre-written XSL stylesheet I plan on using FOP to build a PDF doc and
shoot it back to the user's browser.  Not too out of the ordinary, but I'd
like to inquire into any pitfalls.
