Eps image error : For input string: ""


Using fop-0.20.5rc3a (j2sdk1.4.1_02/windows 2000), I am getting the
following error message processing to pdf:

[fop] [ERROR] Error while creating area : Error while recovering Image
Informations (file:/E:/test/images/SystemContext.eps) : For input string: ""

Using alternative formats works fine, and the eps file renders correctly in
GSView. Any hints (ie. For string: "" ) greatly appreciated.

(David sent me an EPS file to test.)

The problem seems to be that the EPS handling code in FOP does not
support the "(atend)" syntax in your EPS file (See %BoundingBox at the
beginning and the end of your EPS file).

The code for that is in
org.apache.fop.image.analyser.EPSReader.readBBox() in case you'd like to
try fixing it yourself. It shouldn't be hard. Otherwise, please open a
bug report in bugzilla (http://xml.apache.org/fop/bugs.html). Please
include my analysis when writing the report.

There's probably something strange with your EPS file. If you run again
with the -d option on the command line you get a full stacktrace which
should give us more information what exactly is wrong because I can't
find the "For input string" error message anywhere in the code. You can
also send me (off-list) your EPS and I'll have a look at it.
