Yeah thats a bug bear I have about FOP too. When the event system was 
introduced a number of warning and informational messages were left 
using the old logging framework, which means some important warnings are 
not captured by the event framework and by efault end up on stdout. It 
will be a big job to get all messages routed into the Event Framework.

I believe Glenn Adams is planning to work on a release of FOP in the 
near term. Exactly when I don't know. First of all we need to discuss it 
on fop-dev. Typically a release candidate would be buolt first and the 
community allowed to test it. During which time we can iron out any 
instabilities before building the final release.

Distribution of AFP outline & raster fonts with FOP

Hi,

I am generally interested in producing AFP with FOP and actually I am in the process of doing so for a big
project with complex layouts that already uses FOP to produce PDF files. Unfortunately, there are
several problems that came up and I am investigating (but don't want to mention in this thread). 

While I am in that process, I am using AFP outline & raster fonts as it is generally required by printing
houses to embed in an AFP all the referenced resources. The FOP project supports embedding AFP fonts, but
has none in it's distribution. I think it would be very helpful to have some fonts for development, for
automated testing and for the users. With the help of a colleague that owns a license for a commercial tool,
we could convert truetype or opentype fonts to AFP raster and outline fonts. 

Since I am not an expert in legal issues, has anybody checked the licensing schemes ? 

For example, if we convert this font [1]  to an AFP font, could it be distributed with FOP ? Any pointers to
other free fonts ?

Question re: dynamic table rendering

Hi there,

Perhaps it's already in a thread somewhere, but I couldn't find it,
and if someone knows of the thread to look for it'd be appreciated,
but anyway, I better ask this question.

I have dynamic XML being generated tables (this is a web application).

However, depending on the user's query structure, they may have more
columns and data than a standard 11x8.5 in landscape page.

Is there any built in functionality, or technique I could use to make
this output print like an Excel worksheet?

I know this is asking for a lot, but I'm wondering if anyone has come
across this problem and got a work around.

(even if it's something like calculating page widths based on content,
and making multiple layouts).

Thanks in advance guys.

Re: Question re: dynamic table rendering

Take a look at the thread Vincent and I had under heading "flow 
sideways".  tricks with printing first half, then second half by 
doubling the declared size of the page.

Thanks Robert, I'll look into it.

WARNING: 1 link target could not be fully resolved and was now point to the top of the page or is dysfunctional.

Hi,

I am using FOP 0.95 and get the below error. I am using a somewhat
complicated page-sequence-master. I narrowed the area of the FO that is for
some reason not printing out. 

WARNING: 1 link target could not be fully resolved and was now point to the
top of the page or is dysfunctional.

What does this mean?

I can prepare a repo of the problem if needed.

Thx

First you should test with FOP 1.0. If the problem is also present there 
please provide a (slimmed down if possible) example fo file that shows 
the issue and then it will be easier to help.

Thanks. I confirmed that this does not happen in 1.0. I think I found a
work-a-around for 0.95. If I have any issues, I will post back. thx for the
help.
