Hi.

I have been implementing the Bouncy Castle encryption support as described in 
the FOP docs and almost everything works out fine.
What does not work however is the implementation of external links 
(fo:basic-link - external-destination). In my case the link target will be an 
Internet URL (e.g. http://x.y.com).

When I try to click on a link in the resulting PDF I will be directed to my 
default browser but with a "Target not found" message. When inspecting the URL 
I find that it starts with 
file:///C:/eclipse.../out/<file:///C:\eclipse...\out\> which is the path to the 
created PDF. After that there is just a string of hexadecimal characters 
(encrypted URL I suspect).

However, when turning off encryption and not changing any other parameter, the 
links will work all right.

I am currently using FOP 1.0 but looked at history of changes for 1.1 I did not 
see anything relating to this.

I found some information regarding this on Internet from 2008 FOP 0.95 and so 
my questions are:

Is the bug still there (it seems so)?
Does anybody have a workaround (without hacking the FOP code)?

Regards
