Produce multiple PDF pages (was: Re: The URI can't be opened error: when generating PDF with embedded image)
The PDFTranscoder currently doesn't offer anything to produce multiple
PDF pages. However, the underlying PDFDocumentGraphics2D class does (but
it might not help you). Would you just want to convert a series of SVG
files to a single PDF?
If that's the case, I can give you an alternative: FOP Trunk (i.e.
unreleased code from our SVN repo) can do exactly that using a
properietary extension to XSL-FO. You'd call FOP, not Batik, but Batik
is still used to process the SVG graphics. The FO file to glue all this
together would look like this:
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
xmlns:fox="http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/extensions">
<fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="dummy" page-width="5in" page-height="5in">
<fo:region-body/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
</fo:layout-master-set>
<fox:external-document id="img1" src="mysvgimage1.svg"/>
<fox:external-document id="img2" src="mysvgimage2.svg"/>
<fox:external-document id="img3" src="mysvgimage3.svg"/>
</fo:root>
Maybe that helps.

Hi Lea,
I believe Jeremias just went offline for 10 days, but Fop0.95beta was
released on March 26, 2008, so it may have what you need:
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/download.html
I'd recommend you give it a shot with the FO Jeremias posted. Once you
know it works, you should be able to come up with a way to auotmate
the process via XML+XSLT. If not, ask for more help here or on the XSL
Mulberry List...

Sorry Jeremias,
I know its been a while since you responded to this but I am now back on the
case. - after an unwelcome diversion.
Yes this is exactly what I need. I need the ability to render several SVG
images to a multiple page PDF document.
You spoke about a FOP trunk which could achieve this. Is this still needed
given the delay in me responding?
Also is there a way to dynamically generate the FOP document in code as I
would not really want to generate an XML structure and then in turn
transform this.
As always any help is much appreciated.
Regards
Lea.
