fop dtd attached

A couple of people have written in recently asking for an FOP dtd. I'm guessing so they can use it with PSGML. So, I made one using the standard document as well as I could read it. I tried to include lists of valid values for things like so, if you want to use it as a real validating document

Re: Why do you use FOP instead of ...

I've attached an XSLT stylesheet that we use to create a PDF version of a clinical trial participant's lab report. It uses some fairly complicated presentation logic that by necessity needs take place in the last stage of processing. The FO output that it produces is also somewhat involved, making

Forgot to say that our fo formatting would be ready in 10 years when we'll have those *good* voice synthetizer that are supposed to *print* our fo code according to the XSL-FO specs. ;) Fred. --- Ralph LaChance <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a écrit : > At 04:06 PM 2/1/02 -0200, you wrote: > >I will nail

RE: Why do you use FOP instead of ...

Hi Roland, We had the very same prob cause the xsl that translate from our XML content to FO went quite messy as we made all modifications needed to paper export (we're usually building 50->200 pages in our pdfs, with many pictures, tables cause it's made of courses contents). So we made some kin

RE: i18n in TXTRenderer

Yes. I looked a bit at the renderers in the main branch and it looks like they have been gutted. Seeing this I am a bit concerned that it may be longer than I thought before the redesigned FOP is functional. But I did not look at very many things, so maybe it is what I happened to look at. I also

Hi all, I'm working on an e-learning at a french university. We adopted fop the very same reason Jim has stated. But i also use iText as a hack for some special purposes (re-ordering/re-sizing/watermarking mostly) I think we also made this choice "for the future" as: - first, we have a pure xml/

Our application is a servlet based web application. We have adopted the MVC approach. We found Cacoon over kill, so we implmented our own frame work. Our frame work requires all business components produce XML. We then use XSL:HTML to format HTML output for the browser. It was only a natural n

Re: making classes off your fonts...

Everything on fonts is on the following page: http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html Sometimes the metric files need some tweaking, especially for Type 1 fonts, but that requires reading into the font specs. I'm still quite sure you're making yourself a hard time with little profit. Good luck. >

thanks... it worked but not the way i thought (lol) i think each space is used as a linebreak (nicxe view though :-]) and some characters aren't correct (like a "°" in stead off an "ë"). do you know where i can find a tutorial for that (making metrix-files...)... and implementing correctly (mus
