Problem with FOP, Barcode4J and AreaTreeModel
Hi @all.
At first, i want to introduce me. I'm Michael from germany and i'm working as software developer.
At the moment, we are in a project which include producing barcodes.
We are using barcode4j in combination with FOP Ver. 1.1 in a WebApplication hosted in a apache tomcat environment.
Everything worked fine with creating files including the barcode until we got a new feature request. because of this feature request, we are not able to produce PDF-Files ans more. Instead, we have to produce pcl-files.
Because of the measurement differences between pdf and pcl, we decides to produce an AreaTree file first with overriding the renderer.
So the measurment is done in PDF-Style and after that, we convert the AreaTree-File to a PCL-File.
The problem is that we cannot produce the AreaTree file using saxon. Everything works fine when whe use xalan, but wit saxon, we get a NullPointerException inside the Methode "getNameCode" in Class "net.sf.saxon.event.ReceivingContentHandler"
The Namespace-URI seems to be Null!
The Code-Snippet inside the FO-File is:
<barcode:barcode xmlns:barcode="http://barcode4j.krysalis.org/ns" orientation="90" message="440180">
<barcode:intl2of5>
<barcode:height>10mm</barcode:height>
<barcode:module-width>0.5mm</barcode:module-width>
<barcode:wide-factor>3.0</barcode:wide-factor>
<barcode:quiet-zone enabled="true">10mw
</barcode:quiet-zone>
<barcode:checksum>auto</barcode:checksum>
<barcode:human-readable>
<barcode:placement>none</barcode:placement>
<barcode:display-checksum>false</barcode:display-checksum>
</barcode:human-readable>
</barcode:intl2of5>
</barcode:barcode>
Can anyone tell me what's wrong with it?
Thanks!
Michael

That can be done with post script by editing intermediate layer. Although commands change for each printer you can control most printer driven functions. You can either find a pdl (printer definition language) or reverse it via a postscript printer driver and saving to file versus sending to printer. I've run a mail house where we integrated with multiple print houses using this technique. I was also able to selectively duplex, staple and fold.
Let me know if you need help

We need to use PCL because we have to define the paper-tray for the printer inside the document.

Why pcl? I thought I was trapped in a pcl world and jeremias set me straight :) maybe I can offer some guidance?

Hi,
did you ask on Saxon mailing list at [1]?
That should be the right place for such question.
The NPE is thrown during Saxon stage.
Then FOP stage runs after the Saxon one (as it takes XSL-FO as input).
