Unable to perform PDF creation
Hello,
i have download the newest version of FOP ( 0_20_1_bin ) and could
not perform a pdf creation. I embedded this code:
FileInputStream file = new FileInputStream( new File( "e:\\border.fo" ) );
Driver driver = new Driver( new InputSource( file ), out );
driver.setRenderer( Driver.RENDER_PDF );
driver.setupDefaultMappings();
driver.run();
FileWriter file = new FileWriter( "e:\\my.pdf" );
file.write( new String( out.toByteArray() );
file.flush();
file.close();
in my application. I tried to render 'border.fo' from example directory.
The result is very strange. I got a pdf file that contains only a blank
page.
If i run the 'runtests.bat', all pdf documents will be build correct (
including
border.pdf )
The only difference i see between 'my.pdf' and 'border.pdf' is in pdf
source:
'Border.pdf':
/Producer (FOP 0.20.1) >>
endobj
5 0 obj
<< /Length 1330 /Filter [ /ASCII85Decode /FlateDecode ] >>
stream
Gat=,9lC\:&A@sBoRTAk2FW*qIiJOn.BCEQ1'eHF6a@T8Ohuj\%4M7JlC%)9E9ru......

'My.pdf':

stream

...
It seems to be the stream is not correct.
My System:
JDK 1.3 with JBuilder4
Win NT 4.0 and Win98
All Jar-Files included from \\lib
Hope, somebody can help me, because i spended much time to find this error.
greetings harry

Hi
PDF is a binary format. Don't convert it to a String and don't use
FileWriters. Your code should probably look approximately like this:
FileInputStream file = new FileInputStream( new File( "e:\\border.fo" ));
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("e:\\my.pdf");
try {
Driver driver = new Driver( new InputSource( file ), out );
driver.setRenderer( Driver.RENDER_PDF );
driver.setupDefaultMappings();
driver.run();
} finally {
out.close();
}
